• Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the beast, but you retain your alignment, personality, and Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You also retain all of your skill and saving throw proficiencies, in addition to gaining those of the creature. If the creature has the same proficiency as you and the bonus in its stat block is higher than yours, use the creature's bonus instead of yours. If the creature has any legendary or lair actions, you can't use them.
• When you transform, you assume the beast's hit points and Hit Dice. When you revert to your normal form, you return to the number of hit points you had before you transformed. However, if you revert as a result of dropping to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to your normal form. For example, if you take 10 damage in animal form and have only 1 hit point left, you revert and take 9 damage. As long as the excess damage doesn't reduce your normal form to 0 hit points, you aren't knocked unconscious.
• You can't cast spells, and your ability to speak or take any action that requires hands is limited to the capabilities of your beast form. Transforming doesn't break your concentration on a spell you've already cast, however, or prevent you from taking actions that are part of a spell, such as call lightning, that you've already cast.
• You retain the benefit of any features from your class, race, or other source and can use them if the new form is physically capable of doing so. However, you can't use any of your special senses, such as darkvision, unless your new form also has that sense. You choose whether your equipment falls to the ground in your space, merges into your new form, or is worn by it. Worn equipment functions as normal, but the DM decides whether it is practical for the new form to wear a piece of equipment, based on the creature's shape and size. Your equipment doesn't change
size or shape to match the new form, and any equipment that the new form can't wear must either fall to the ground or merge with it. Equipment that merges with the form has no effect until you leave the form.

Underwater interest
I’ve done a little research on that question. Apparently, even in plate Armor there’s little you can do unarmored that you can’t do on plate, including swimming. Real plate armor was much lighter, and as perfectly form fitting as they could make it, than people, including fantasy writers, seem to believe. Now, you’d get tired more often, but that’s it.
So we’ll go by the book on this one. If you meet the strength requirement, are proficient in the armor and have a swim speed, all that together works so that you can move like you normally would. After all, half plate only weighs 40 pounds, and once I adjust, I can swim just fine with my 50 pound daughter on my back. And people who scuba dive wear about 100 lbs when they dive, with the tank and all. So no, I don’t think there needs to be any adjustment, even wearing plate, which is only 65 pounds. Still less than a scuba suit.
The thing is, under water weight is displaced. You might have a 60 lbs suit of armor on, but it should be pretty well fitted, and if you can breath underwater, you aren’t expending the energy it takes to stay afloat. So I don’t see any problems with it.

Underwater race may have a "swim bladder" organ, or an object that does the same thing, to help them achieve neutral buoyancy. I've done a *very little* bit of scuba diving, and one important piece of equipment is this sort of "inflatable belt/collar" you wear to make you neutrally buoyant - this way you can swim up *or* down with ease, even though you are carrying armor. If you are carrying more heavy gear, you inflate it more. If you are carrying less, you deflate it a little.

Problem is I was not planning on being a underwater race. I was going to do a half elf Hexblade and take the Gift of the Depths invocation. Since the invocation grants me a swim speed it might just magically make me buoyant as well.

What I was trying to explain was my support for the handwaiving of special penalties for armor underwater for races or individuals who do a lot of underwater stuff. While it would be a challenge for the average adventurer, this could be a solved problem for the PCs and NPCs of this campaign (either through biology, magic or technology... heck you could gave a special familiar with a huge swim bladder!).

Alright, here is my still-nameless sea elf monk. Is there a sea elf army of sorts that he used to be part of? And I'd also like to trade in that Vehicles (land) proficiency for something useful.
