Sea sprite

Sea sprites are marine cousins of the more common sort of surface dwelling sprite found on Oerth.

Ecology

Environment

Sea sprites are well adapted to life in Oerth's tropical oceans, dwelling in and around coral reefs and in warm, shallow waters (known sea sprite habitats include the Densac Gulf the Tilva Strait, as well as other regions further to the south). Although capable of breathing air as easily as they breathe water, sea sprites do not often leave their native undersea habitat.

Typical physical characteristics

Sea sprites are somewhat similiar in size and appearance to other sprites, being humanlike beings of two feet or less in height. They have bright green hair (which is typically worn long) and pale complexions (sometimes with a bluish hue). Instead of the wings of flying sprites, sea sprites have webbed hands and feet. This adaptation helps them to swim very quickly,

Alignment

Sea sprites are chaotic neutral, with tendencies toward good.

Society

Language

Sea sprites speak their own unique language. These sprites possess a basic facility for communication with other marine creatures of higher intelligence, and roughly half their number also have some fluency with the Common Tongue.
