Asteros/Aqualis-Asteros

The Aqualis-Asteros are an enslaved sub-race of the Asteros species that were the original Asteros that developed underwater. They are viewed as a lesser race by the Pneuma and have been trapped in underwater caves and used for free power and labor.

The Aqualis are more bulky in appearance as opposed to the stalky build of most Pneuma. Their faces have two large eyes, a mouth, two whisker-like strands of hair underneath their eyes, long flowing hair that grows from the very top of the head, and gills on either side that also cover their ear holes. Their hand are very lengthy and have webbing up to about 3/4ths of the length to help with swimming. Additionally they have small fins above their broad, webbed tail that in the case of the Pneuma evolved into functional legs. They are generally covered in wounds and scars either from the dangers of the caves or from slavers.
