Gillman

Do you want you character to be amphibious, but don't want to play as a gross fishperson from the Black Lagoon? Then you should try Gillmen. In terms of appearances, they are literally just humans with a pair of gills slapped onto their neck, slightly webbed hands and feet, and black claw-like nails.
On Golarion, they are descendents of Azlanti humans who were fleshwarped by Aboleths to survive underwater after their homeland sank.
