Homebrew Elemental Triton Species Details
Many centuries ago, the first tritons entered the material plane in response to the growing threat of evil elementals. They established settlements around portals to the elemental planes and served as the ocean's protectors. Recently, new group of tritons have crossed over to this plane. Having spent significantly more time in the elemental plane of water than their kin, these tritons carry the power of elemental water in their blood.
