Homebrew Fishstick Species Details
Fishsticks are a family of aquatic creatures from lakes, rivers and marine waters from an unnamed delta. Given sentience and human bodies by a mischievous fairy, they ventured out into the world and started new lives as complex creatures, no longer held back by physical and intellectual constraints.
