Tideborn

Also spelled Tide-Born or Tide Born, they are the self style children of Sol's sister, an ancient force often associated with the waters.
== Appearance and Nature ==
Humanoid, mostly, their appearances vary very much like the Chaos Elves. Their most common appearance, with a marine humanoid with gills, webbed fingers and toes, and instead of hair they have a fin the runs down the back of their heads to resemble long hair. Their skins are smooth, with pale under bellies but also skin that ranges from red, blue, green and even sometimes brown. They commonly wear leather wrappings and coral armor, and are often armed with spears.
As devout followers of a chaos aligned goddess there is much diversity among their numbers. Some of them appear very human like, some have fish tail legs, others crab arms and natural armor, and a few resemble mermaids.
They are creatures steeped in magic, so much that the magic has infused their very DNA. Loss of this energy could possibly kill them.
== Culture ==
The Tideborn worship the 'Ocean Mother' who they believe is the sister and enemy of the 'Sun Father'. Their legend holds that she hid their ancestors from the tyrannical sun in the ocean depths until they were strong enough to protect themselves.
They are an aggressive people intent to protect the seas and fight of the dark things below. Their culture is steeped in magic and religion, being ruled by a Monarchy and a Theocracy. Magic is how they formed their cities and forged their weapons and provides them mastery of the seas.
Their magic is used in the creation of arms and technology called 'Magictech' such as their automaton leviathans. Silver is highly respected in their culture as it is the favored color of their goddess. For similar reasons they dislike gold.
They divide themselves into clans and castes based on the genetic variances of each individual.
As per their believes they view the sun as a source of evil, and immediately called a jihad upon the Sun Elves when they first learned of them. Despite being driven back they have never lost that desire. They are also distrustful of the Angeloids and similar beings, their bright light reminding them of the sun. Despite this they are no friend to dark forces.
== History ==
Their origins are not known to the Elves, they seem to have been on the planet since they first came and dwelled in the ocean depths for longer than man's memory. What is known is that they had an immediate hate for the Sun elves, targeting their maritime efforts and causing great wars, and lashing them with conjured storms. Eventually the Sun Elves moved away from the sea coasts, but the Tide Born followed them up rivers seemingly intent on a racial cleansing against the followers of Sol.
Eventually they were pushed back by an alliance of the elves, but to the present no Sun Elf dares tread upon the waters.
== Powers and Abilities ==
* Marine Adaption: Their bodies are adapted for surviving under the waves.
** Super Strength: Their bodies can withstand deep ocean pressures giving them great durability and strength.
** Heating: They can survive in ice cold waters and are resistant to the cold.
** Waterbreathing: All of them can breath under water, some can breath above water. However, only 'some' excessive time on land often requires the assistance of gear or magic.
* Water Magic: With magic in their blood, many have access to some form of magic themed water.
== Trivia ==
* Created because I was asked to make a sea themed character creator and needed lore for it.
