During the cataclysmic events of Earthfall, a fraction of the Azlanti populace was mutated by their hated alghollthu enemies to survive in the ocean depths.

Abilities

Attack of Opportunity
Hydration — An azarketi must regularly submerge themself in water to rehydrate their water-acclimated skin. After the first 24 hours outside of water, they take a -1 status penalty to Fortitude saves as their skin cracks and their gills become painful. After 48 hours, they struggle to breathe air and begin to suffocate until returned to water.
Hydraulic Deflection (water) — Drawing moisture from the surrounding atmosphere, the azarketi explorer creates a disc of hovering water that deflects incoming attacks. They gain a +1 circumstance bonus to AC until the start of their next turn.
Surface Skimmer — While the azarketi explorer is submerged just below the water's surface, they have Cover from attacks made by creatures out of the water.
