Tritian

TRITIAN

Tritian have the upper torsos of well-built and attractive humans and lower halves consisting of the tail and fins of a great fish. Their hair and scales span a wide range of hues, with tritian in a given region closely resembling each other. Tritian can breathe air freely but move on dry land only with difficulty, and rarely spend long periods out of water. As a race, tritian are insular and distrustful of strangers, but individuals, especially adventuring tritian, break the mold and can be quite garrulous. Tritian concern themselves more with nature and the arts than with morality and ethical debates, and have a strong inclination toward neutral alignments.

(Tritian is both singular and plural form.)
