Amphibious aquatic xenosapient species from the Ocean world Nyl.
Nylith are amphibious humanoids from Nyl, an Ocean world covered in vast, deep seas. Their bodies are streamlined for swimming, with webbed hands and feet, and their skin is covered in a thin layer of mucus that allows them to breathe underwater. Nylith society is organized around floating cities and underwater habitats, with a strong emphasis on cooperation and community. They are highly adaptable and can survive in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. Nylith are often employed as divers, engineers, and explorers, though their alien psychology makes them poor diplomats.
