Sahuagin Species in The Azure Sea | World Anvil

Sahuagin

Across fog-shrouded coasts or endless ocean swells, an ominous drone sounded on a conch shell chills the blood of all who hear it. This is the sound of the sahuagin hunting horn - a call to raid and battle. Coastal settlers refer to sahuagin as "sea devils," for sahuagin have no compassion in them, slaughtering the crews of ships and decimating coastal villages.   Sahuagin are a predatory, piscine race that ventures from the ocean's black depths to hunt the creatures of the shallows and shore.   Though they dwell in the deepest trenches of the ocean, sahuagin view the entire aquatic realm as their kingdom and the creatures in it as blood sport for their hunting parties and as sacrifices for their terrible shark god Sekolah.   The self-styled rulers of sahuagin ocean domains are massive mutant males that grow second sets of arms.

Sahuagin around the Azure Sea

The sahuagin might control the oceans of The Azure Sea if not for the presence of their mortal enemies, the Alugach.   Wars between the two races have raged for centuries across the coasts and seas of the world, disrupting maritime trade and drawing other races into the bloody conflict.   Little is known of sahuagin settlements, and the race is shrouded in mystery, which only adds to the fear that many coastal elements feel about them.
