Sailor

Location: Port, Poolscape, Deep Pipework

Size: 93 cm

Characteristics: Stout bipeds that possess pointed ears, fin-like arms, stubby legs and finned tails that allow them to propel themselves through water. They have been seen in shades of pink, green, blue and occasionally white.

Description: Sailors, named for their appearance on the Port’s ships, are an elusive entity type that appears primarily in water-filled areas. They are semi-aquatic in nature, favoring floating in water just as much as they walk on land. Thanks to their naturally buoyant nature they can remain on water surfaces indefinitely.

Sailors are one of the few entity types found to roam outside of their native habitats, often being found traveling through Deep Pipework to reach either Mariana or the Port. They are found largely within the Port, however, either on the ships that float in the vast ocean or swimming across the expansive sea.

Sailors show a skittish nature towards researchers and other entities, preferring to avoid them if possible. They sometimes, however, use Spumes as floatation devices to get to higher areas and will sometimes hitch rides on larger entities. This behavior has been seldom seen applied to humans. In only the few recorded times of extensive human-Sailor interaction, the entities used a researcher as a form of ladder to reach a higher ledge.
