Over 10 feet tall, creichthyans are covered in a gray, rough-textured skin. Their eyes are a dead black, much like the eyes of great white sharks. Most creichthyans are covered in dozens of scars. The creichthyan is fully amphibious, and suffers no penalties for actions made out of water. Keen Scent (Ex): A creichthyan can locate creatures by scent within a 180-foot radius and detect blood in the water at ranges of up to a mile. CREICHTHYAN SOCIETY Dwelling in beautiful coral cities that belie their mercenary nature, creichthyans actually have a quite structured society, organized by caste or social grouping. There are four castes in all: dreadnought, skirmisher, dominator, and wavetalker. They are notorious mercenaries, and offer their services to undersea races. Creichthyans prefer to be in the employ of evil races such as sahuagin or kuo-toa, but a few have been found employed by locathah, tritons, or even paranoid nobles among the marid. CREICHTHYAN CHARACTERS The favored class of creichthyans varies by caste. Creichthyan dreadnoughts generally take class levels of barbarian, skirmishers generally take class levels of fighter, dominators are clerics, and wavetalkers are wizards. Creichthyan dominators worship Sekolah, deity of the sahuagin. As such, they have access to the Evil, Law, Strength, and War domains. [/QUOTE]
