Ancestry: Axol
The Axol are a somewhat unknown amphibian inhabitant of the world's lakes and shallow rivers, living below the water as simple farmers and traders. They make various goods from the kelp and other sea flora for their own use and occasionally for trade, while keeping the sea fauna they raise for themselves. While they mainly reside underwater and enjoy the simple life, some Axols take up jobs on land, and even adventure.
The Axol are humanoids with digitigrade legs and axolotl features. They have rubbery skin, frilled stalks which function as gills, and tails. Their eyes are black, and their skin is either pink, black, blue, grey, or white.
