Homebrew Carcharadon Species Details

The carcharadon, The most dangerous... thing... I've ever encountered in all my life on these seas. Thank the gods they don't usually stray too far from their home or I'd be staying on dry land. 

The carcharadon are a blessing from the gods during the Great Aquaterra war. When the sea elves and triton were outnumbered and out of options against the Sahuagin, they made a call to the gods to help them. The gods responded in kind, providing the great carcharadon from the primordial realm, large brutish warriors who resemble half human and half shark humanoids. The carcharadon tilted the tide of the war and brought victory to the elves and triton. They now live together in unity and kinship, standing shoulder to shoulder with their brothers and sisters against all who bring danger.
