Homebrew Elthen Species Details

The Elthen are a hearty reptilian-like race that hails from the planet Miazar, covered in swamps composed of massive trees that scrape against the sky and filled with insects that can reach the size of houses. The Elthen have a deep understanding of the lands from which they originate, and a connection with nature that is on par with that of the Andomar. Their ships tend to be built in part from the thick carapaces of insects that are endemic to Miazar, giving their ships a unique appearance backed up by its fortified exterior. Aboard the Theamise the Elthen usually work alongside the Andomar in biological research and innovations, and experience with alchemical practices make them an invaluable resource.
