description
Fish folk are fish-like humanoid creatures who live under the Shallows in grottoes and caves. They are generally unpleasant and enjoy marauding along the coastline in their makeshift boats. To many Obojiman's they are considered the Howlers of the sea. While the overall number of fish folk is small, they are pesky, persistent, and opportunists. When they raid villages, they usually do so with a dozen or fewer bandits, and often when the villagers expect it least.
Fish Folk in General: Most fish folk live in the Shallows and are divided into two kingdoms, those under the rule of the Lionfish King and deepsea fishfolk under the rule of Venomous Rex. Almost all deepsea fish folk are tainted by the Corruption and afflicted by its horrific, skeletonizing effects making them desperate and oftentimes unwell.
Villains and Cutthroats: Both kingdoms of fish folk are pirates and bullies, demanding tribute from all who roam their waters. These threats are often hollow, but will do the trick, as most islanders would rather pay to end a fish folk interaction than to save a few gold.
