welcome to Eldritch Academy
In a world of myths and mysteries, the pinnacle of the magical academies exists. Eldritch Academy offers education to all ages and species but specializes in the study and training of one's innate mystical capabilities, often called Eldritch Energies, Powers, or Unknowns, but more formally known as their Talent. However, tensions run high with the nations only holding a fragile peace as the Talents that rival the epitomes of technology change the balance of power.
With the more recent uprising of evil Shades and introduction of combat-oriented programs into Talent-focused schools, nations grow more aggressive towards one another. The demand for resources grows, and skirmishes at the border of Arka and Mistere become more frequent. Monsters run into the nations from the Wildes, terrorizing villages and cities. The need for trained or in-training Hunters and Guardians has never been more urgent.

NAIAD (IHPEIHPE WATER NYMPH) Name of Species: Naiad (Ihpeihpe Water Nymph)
Baseline Dimension: Generally anywhere from 4ft to 7ft.
Baseline Appearance: Perhaps the most notable feature of the naiad is that most of their body, or even their entire body, in some cases is made of water. While they can be amorphous blobs if they try, they can also bend their bodily water into more human shapes. While most of their body is translucent, their head is solid and an icy color (and has a skin-like texture) which allows them to have facial features. Like a nose, eyes, and mouth. To fit in better with humanoid society or whatever. Their hair is usually made of water, as well. While they have no organs or other bodily functions, their body can support its own ecosystem by acting as a pseudo fish tank. It isn’t uncommon for naiads to let their favorite fish live inside their bodies or wear a self-grown lilypad as a hat. And they can filter their water to keep the habitat healthy. It is also important to note that their bodies are only made of freshwater, since the species are borne from magical sources of freshwater. Ocean naiads exist but are fundamentally different from freshwater naiads.
Culture/Origin of Species: They originate from the island of Ihpeihpe, in the slightly radioactive, but mostly magical marshy lowlands. Generally referred to as “The Shimmering Marshes”, the magical energies here spurned the waters here into a life form. After many years of stagnancy, the Naiads were gifted intelligence by the “Enlightenment of Ihpeihpe”. After a short period of confusion, the now-sentient Naiad populations became living in small, closely knit communities. Although not needing food, water, sleep, or other bodily functions of the sort, they created underwater dwellings for a more comfortable life. As a people, they are carefree and calm, much like the waters they live in. The reproduction of the Naiads is a closely guarded secret, it is a magical rite that gives life to a small body of water. Their society is connected to the other species of Ihpeihpe by their alchemical trade. Within their magically charged swamps, many powerful reagents grow and prosper, and naturally, after years of experimenting, they have become experts in alchemy. The most devote alchemist even grow their own ingredients inside their liquid bodies.
Traits:
• Aqueous: Having a liquid body is a boon. Bullets? Knives? No wounds left. It doesn’t mean that they don’t feel pain, necessarily, but it’s a lot harder to injure a puddle than a human. Just don’t trust them to hold a paper for you.
• Cellular respiration is for losers: As Naiads are nonliving creatures, they don’t need to sleep, eat, drink, etc. They also don’t age.
Flaws:
• Incompatible: Due to their unique form of reproduction, they cannot make half-breeds or be part of a hybrid being.
