Homebrew Axolatian Species Details

The Axolatian are an adventurous and fun loving group. They tend to be very social and easy-going while also being quite mischievous. This can potentially get them into a lot of trouble down the road. They’re vaguely humanoid in shape. Small in size, Axolatian can fit into small cramped spaces with little difficulty. The main thing that sets them apart from other races is the rami on the back of their head. These rami allow them to breath under water and in the air. Their skin is soft and somewhat translucent which makes them stand out in a crowd. This race is quite sneaky (when in water) due to the fact that they have a lot of natural predators. This being said, Axolatian are naturally good swimmers and can swim long distances without getting tired.

They have no hair, with large black eyes. Usually have either pink, black, or brown slimmy skin with various spots. More exotic variants will be red, blue, or green. Their voices tend to be bubbly.
