Seaclaimed Humanoid (5e Race)
Seaclaimed Humanoid
The Seaclaimed Humanoid is a human claimed by the depths of the sea, They typically become seaclaimed by drowning rather than there wounds. These creatures are most commonly true Neutral as they will do what they deem good or bad in different situations dependent on the context and who it effects.
Seaclaimed humanoids lock suffering Creatures hearts in chests on death to keep their souls in the plane, after death they roam the sea floor putting suffering creatures out of their misery, they then lock their hearts away so they may also put others out of their misery to avoid the slow death they once suffered.
This chest can be used to kill a seaclaimed humanoid or leverage them under control.
Nothing is known as to how or what causes these creatures to remain in the plane of the living the only explanation is a deal with a strong god at the expense of their sanity this is the most viable option as most seaclaimed seem to be crazy or atleast a little strange.
