Homebrew Aquari Species Details

The Aquari are amphibious humanoids shaped by the ebb and flow of the ocean. With skin in hues of blue, green, or coral-pink, and eyes like pearls reflecting moonlight on water, they embody the mystery of the sea. Some tribes dwell in coral cities beneath the waves, while others live along coasts, serving as intermediaries between landfolk and the ocean’s power. Sailors speak of their songs that can calm storms—or summon them.

While united by their reverence for the sea, Aquari often differ greatly in culture: reef-dwellers are colorful and sociable, deep-sea clans are secretive and strange, and tidal wanderers are nomadic adventurers.
