Homebrew Axolotl Species Details

These axolotl humanoids are a variety of colors with their squishy exterior. The skin of an axolotl is highly permeable, allowing them to easily exchange oxygen even when underwater. However, they dry out easily and must take care to maintain their moisture levels. Their gills extend out of the sides of their heads. Their rears have tails about half as long as they are tall. These help with their ambulation in water. Their hands and feet feature short digits that are webbed.
