  1. The Rhotweh are a race of amphibian humanoids who come from the Roour Swamps and Marshlands. They have smooth, rubbery skin that comes in shades of green with varying degrees of bumpiness, large lips that come in every color but yellow, and eyes the size of their fists. The average height for a male is 5'7 and the average height for a female is 6'0, though the females are generally wider and more robust as well. Rhotwehs have webbed hands and feet for great swimming ability. Their skin is capable of absorbing air through water, giving them an indefinite amount of time they can spend underwater. They generally prefer to live on land, however. Their preferred climates are those that are humid or moist, and can enable them to get plenty of water. Temperatures above 90F with little moisture in the air, especially that of deserts, and freezing temperatures are doubly dangerous to Rhotwehs compared to other races. The Roour lands are not rich in valuable resources or oddities besides creatures native to the region. Immediately adjacent to them, however, are jungles that are the home of various lizardmen tribes. Lizardmen would often go to the Roour swamps to raid them and capture Rhotwehs to use as slaves, or worse, food. Many Rhotweh slaves would live out their lives in filthy slave pools in between backbreaking labor shifts. Rhotwehs are blessed with a gland in their gut which enables them to expectorate a thick slime which is capable of acting as a powerful adhesive when dried. This natural adhesive is capable of holding together stone given a proper bond and coverage, making them invaluable as laborers.
