race features:

Amphibious

You can breathe air and water.  

Pharyngeal Jaw

You were born with a secondary jaw set back in your throat, filled with sharp, piercing fangs, some of which are hollow and capable of delivering a stinging venom. Extending or retracting your secondary jaw is a free action. The jaw is a natural weapon, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with it, you deal your choice of poison or piercing damage equal to 1d6 + your dexterity modifier instead of the normal bludgeoning damage for an unarmed strike. No more than one such bite attack may be made per round.  

Darkvision

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light and in darkness as if it were dim light. You discern colors in that darkness only as shades of gray.  

Emissary of the Sea

You can communicate simple ideas to any Beast, Elemental, or Monstrosity that has a swimming speed. It can understand your words, though you have no special ability to understand it in return.  

Guardian of the Depths

Adapted to the frigid ocean depths, you have resistance to cold damage.
