Pre-order bonuses are usually garbage. “You get the option of to dress your PC in this silly hat!” If they were good enough to sell they wouldn’t be giving them away.

Doesn’t matter. It was only scary in the 1920s because it was shocking to the audience. This audience isn’t going to be shocked. As for the PCs, they are used to non-human settlements, and half of them are probably hybrids themselves so they are hardly going to be bothered. The Deep Ones...

And how is that? I wouldn’t be able to tell which was which if there where no labelled landmarks.

In what way would you expect a town map in Sithicus to differ from a town map in the Forgotten Realms?

You didn't? I thought the whole subclass was based on this:

Colour it purple and no one will notice.

Full plate has a 15 STR requirement. A dex build can dump stat strength, with all the initiative, stealth and ranged benefits that come with it. Also, I use dual scimitars now. Dual scimitars are cool.

D&D already has 3-4 variants on Deep Ones.
