Homebrew Sahuagin- Malenti Species Details

When a Sahuagin is born near a Sea Elven settlement with no Sahuagin to raise it, Sahuagin are likely to mutate into Malenti, Sahuagin that look like Sea Elves, but have the temperament of a shark. Most Malenti are found by Sahuagin, turned into spies and assassins, but some are never found, living out their lives as Sea Elves to most, and Sahuagin to the sharks around them.
