Athamaru
Aquatic spear-warriors who ride giant moray eels, hunting ocean predators from the depths with coordinated tactics.
Deep in the sea, schools of athamarus—piscine humanoids armed with spears and specialized crossbows—stalk sharks, sea serpents, and giant squid from the backs of their giant moray eel mounts. The first hunters to strike are armed with barbed harpoons that deploy large fans of seaweed, slowing and exhausting their prey.

In Tian Xia, the underwater nation of Xidao lies in the shallow gulf between Minkai and the mainland. Though the nation-states that make up Xidao are independent, athamarus comprise the majority of the population and are in charge for all practical purposes. Stone obelisks called trade spires reach above the surface of the gulf to collect offerings from travelers.
