Merfolk
/tg/ has had a spattering of threads dedicated to merfolk over the years. Many people have wished to use merfolk players or merfolk cities in their campaign. Unfortunately most settings have rules that are not conductive to using merfolk as player characters, and fluff that does not include merfolk as a major power. This page serves as a hub to organize and advertise all the merfolk content that the community has created to solve this problem. It is an attempt to create rules and fluff for PC races of merfolk. Feel free to join the community and create your own fluff! Create anything you want and make a link for it on this page. However, please respect the creations of other people.
