Biography
Characteristics
An Aquatic-type monster akin to merfolk. Not only can they traverse both land and water, but they become stronger and recover lost health with every turn they spend in the water. The more powerful forms of this monster will strategically retreat to the water to regain their health if given the chance.[1]
