Description
The Fishmen live deep in dark areas of the ocean, and rarely come to the surface.
Locked in an endless battle with the usual inhabitants of the lighter waters abpve them, the Merfolk, most Fishmen are bred to be mean, petty, and cruel.
They hate Merfolk more than anything (the feeling is mutual), though their hate for surface dwellers comes close.
Little is known about them on the surface.
Fishmen live in a mostly tribal society, though these tribes are often unified under a Fish King in a byzantine tribal politics that few, even the Fishmen, understand.
Also of note, is while linguists do have knowledge of their language, few make an effort to learn it, as it is considered the ugliest language known to the human ear.
While some Fishmen do worship Valnoa, many sects are said to have splintered off to worship a stranger, darker god that few know beyond the darkest depths of the ocean.
