LOCATHAH


These resilient and proud fish-folk (found in Danger at
Dunwater) have endured war, s lavery, and mistreatment
at the hands of other aquatic creatures. They dwell in
submerged tribal communities along seacoasts, and
hunt both above and below the waler.


LOCATHAH HUNTER


The far-ranging locathah hunter is trained in tracking
and stalking prey on land and in water. They often serve
as leaders to small bands of locathah or emissaries for
their people (such as the hunter found in Danger at Dun-
watcr). Their colorful, poisoned, and fast-loading cross-
bows rarely miss a target.

nage and mortal flesh, these fiends devour all in their
paths. After a maw demon rests for 8 hours. anything
it has devoured is transported to the Abyss for further
digestion of a different sort.
