Fathomless

The Fathomless are a rare species of cursed aquatic humanoids. They are rarely born naturally and are rather a mutation found in an existing species.
The Fathomless have been touched by the deep, this usually occurs when a humanoid creature drowns at sea. Just before they die they can be cursed or bound in service by an entity of the deep ocean or the Elemental Plane of Water. The Fathomless then become trapped at the verge of death, not alive, but not dead either.
The Fathomless are bound to their creator and are most commonly found at sea. While they can travel on land they are always drawn to the sea and their creator.
Because of their terrifying visage and connections to bad omens most Fathomless are not welcome among the living unless they can disguise themselves.
