Waterkin

Waterkin are known for their strength and endurance. They often choose working class jobs such as blacksmithing, fishing, or hunting. Waterkin who have a knack for adventuring often become disciples of the fist, and learn the ways of the fluid body. Waterkin are found within the Empire, and very few choosing to live outside its influence. Most waterkin believe in a strong family, and good work ethics, and waterkin families try to pass on the ideal that you must work hard for what you want, but if you put in enough effort, anything is able to be accomplished. Most waterkin end up leading simple lives, even though they do believe in hard work, most never manage to have high aspirations beyond taking over after their fathers business, or getting married to a decent man.

Waterkin have light blue, to purple skin, and black hair. Most have blue eyes to compliment their skin. They are of normal height and weight for a kin, and possess small gills on the inside of their mouths which allow them to breath both air and water effectively. Their skin is of a rough scaly texture.
