Urchinball

Urchinball is a very physical underwater sport that requires speed, agility, and strength. The object of the game is to get the spiked ball into the opposing team's goal area, while preventing the other team from doing the same.
Players on each team try to pass the ball to their teammates, while also trying to avoid being tackled or having the ball taken away by the opposing team. The spikes on the ball can cause injuries if a player is hit too hard or if the ball sticks to their skin.
The ball was a live sea urchin in historical times; today it is usually synthetic, but in overtime the spines are sometimes impregnated with various toxins as a nod to that history.
The sport is especially popular among the locathah, but it has also been adopted by other seafolk communities.
Dagon I Daguna and Atargatis I Ataratheh are legendary figures in the world of urchinball, known for their incredible speed and agility, as well as their mastery of the game. Their names are still revered by players and fans alike, and their techniques and strategies are studied by those who aspire to become great urchinball players themselves.
