Sahuagin

The Sahuagin are a derivative race of the Tritons. Believed to have been created through the influence of the Shadrathu, the Sahuagin retain basic humanoid features, but are covered with a spiny, reddish-orange exoskeleton. Members of the race possess a greater physical strength than the Tritons, as well as a savage bloodlust which, at times, has been likened to sharks in a feeding frenzy. The Sahuagin greatly outnumber their brethren and are a danger to both ocean-going ships as well as coastal villages, which are frequently the targets of raids by the degenerate sea-folk. Sahuagin do not keep slaves or captives, and consider the flesh of “drylanders” to be a delicacy.
