Naiads

There are a few factions of Naiads across the whole of Pannithor.
Like a few races they are of any alignment and fall into loose them vs us factions, including:
*Trident Realm - the most prevalent Naiad faction
*Forces of Nature - Naiads with other Natural creatures
*Northern Alliance - a faction made from an alliance of the northern tribes of Dwarves, Elves, Naiads and Humans
The most common of the Neriticans to be seen above the surface are the naiads. 
Often seen fighting alongside the armies of the Mother herself and, far more rarely, with some human realms that acquired their services, are the lithe and graceful female warriors.
Pannithor's sailors despise them as it has been known for them to use their strangely alluring forms to attract ships onto jagged rocks, and drag men to their doom.
They are spiteful, fickle, and ferocious, fighting with a skill to rival the elven races. 
They are also incredibly resolute, drawing energy from the water’s flow, be it a babbling spring or the open ocean, to heal even the most grievous wounds. 
Naiads harness the great sea-monsters known as Wyrms to carry them into battle.
The guardians who hail from the oceans of the world are most commonly Naiads. An amphibious race of humanoids who dwell beneath the waves in the Trident Realm of Neritica, naiads are bitter and militaristic, having suffered much at the hands of other races. They maintain standing armies of well armed and armoured warriors, who are all-too ready to go to war in the Green Lady’s name.
Flitting between alluringly beautiful and terrifyingly ferocious, naiads draw power from the water. As long as they are near to the ocean, a river or even an underground spring, they can regenerate even the most grievous wounds.
The Naiads armour is sculpted to their form and is made of rust-free metals or bone, that resemble the scales and fins of fish. Streamlined design allows them to swim underwater while providing them protection equivalent of plate armour.
Their weapons mimic the weapons of the seafaring land lubbers, tridents and rapiers, but are made from the same materials as their armour. Naiads train for decades to fight in strictly drilled regiments and companies, dedicating all of their time to practice and patrols.

Long used by the land-dwellers to hunt aquatic creatures, the naiads use such harpoon launchers against their foes, an irony that brings the naiads great joy.
