New page

Merfolk are an aquatic race of fishmen. They have a humanoid upper body;
instead of legs, though, they have the finned tail of a huge fish. Merfolk
are covered in small, multi-colored scales. While they may not provide
protection, these oily scales do insulate them from the icy chill of the
deep and make it hard to keep a merman trapped.

Merfolk are known for their incredible voices. Many a sailor has been
enchanted - sometimes lured to his death - by the bewitching siren songs of
the mermaids. Mers are trained from an early age in the use of sharp,
thrusting weapons like [[Skill:dagger|daggers]] and [[Skill:Polearm|tridents]].

Recent generations of merfolk have developed an innate magical ability:
they can split their fishtails into two fin-covered legs and walk around on
the shore. This tail-shift happens automatically whenever the merfolk
enters or leaves the water. Unfortunately, though, this keeps them from
wearing [[Armour|boots]] of any kind.

As an aquatic race, merfolk never [[Damage|drown]]. When in the water, they move fast
(even heavily wounded), and fight better. However, they fight worse in
very dry or enclosed spaces.
