陆地上的种族很少能遇到水生精灵，这是一个文明善良的种族，居住在费伦周围的海域。大多数水生精灵生活在落星海或费伦南部的巨海中的水下城市，但在费伦西部沿海海域中也能找到水生精灵的聚居点。
Rarely encountered by the landbound races, the aquatic elves are a civilized and good-hearted people who inhabit the seas surrounding Faerun. Most aquatic elves hail from underwater cities in the Sea of Fallen Stars or in the Great Sea south of Faerun, but small settlements of this race can be found in the seas along Faerun’s western coasts as well.
水生精灵身高很高，能够达到6英尺或更高。它们的四肢修长，有着利于游泳的强壮肌肉，他们的手指和脚趾也很长，并长着厚厚的蹼。它们最显著的特征是沿着锁骨和胸腔长着一组鳃。
The aquatic elves are tall, standing 6 feet or more in height. They have long limbs with strong swimming muscles, and their fingers and toes are long with thick webbing. Their most striking features are sets of gills along the collarbone and ribcage.
水生精灵远不及它们陆地上的表亲那么瘦，它们的头发通常又细又厚，战士会把头发剪得很短，但其余水生精灵的头发会留得很长。巨海的水生精灵有着深绿色发亮的皮肤，上面有不规则的细棕色条纹和斑点。来自落星海的水生精灵皮肤多呈蓝色，带有白色斑点和条纹。这两种类型的水生精灵的眼睛的颜色可能与金精灵、月精灵或野精灵其中之一相同。他们的衣服是由各种各样的海底植物做成的，有绿色、黑色和棕色，水生精灵通常在水下穿着很轻的衣服。
Aquatic elves are nowhere near as thin as their landbound cousins, and their hair is usually stringy and thick, cut short for warriors but otherwise worn long. Great Sea aquatic elves have radiant skin of deep green with irregular thin brown stripes and patches. Aquatic elves from the Sea of Fallen Stars have skin in many shades of blue with white patches and stripes. Eye colors for both types of aquatic elf come in every shade seen among gold, moon, or wild elves. Their clothing is made of various undersea plants in shades of green, black, and brown, although aquatic elves usually go about lightly clad, if dressed at all, while underwater.
水生精灵的预期寿命和年龄符合《玩家手册》表6-4和6-5中精灵设定，但使用以下随机身高和体重特征，而不是表6-6中描述的特征：
Aquatic elves have the life expectancy and age categories defined for elves in Tables 6–4 and 6–5 of the Player’s Handbook, but use the following random height and weight characteristics instead of those described on Table 6–6:
水生精灵，男性4'10" +2d10 100磅 × (2d4) 磅
水生精灵，女性4'5" +2d10 80磅 × (2d4) 磅
Aquatic elf, male 4'10" +2d10 100 lb. × (2d4) lb.
Aquatic elf, female 4'5" +2d10 80 lb. × (2d4) lb.

历史History
不知多久以前，水生精灵最早出现在巨海上，是最后一批从精灵故乡迁徙到费伦的主要精灵亚种。多年来，这些精灵过着游牧的生活，大部分时间都在探索他们在新世界的水域。直到第一次皇冠战争，水生精灵才开始在深海定居并形成永久的聚集地。他们知道皇冠战争，经常从水中的安全处观察这场战争，但他们与陆地上的亲属的互动保持在最低限度。不幸的是，他们试图避免卷入战争的努力最终徒劳无功，到了第四次皇冠战争时，许多水生精灵逃到了坠星海中，建立了一个新的国家，以躲避他们疯狂的亲戚。
Aquatic elves first appeared in the Great Sea untold ages ago, the last of the major elven races to migrate from the elven homeland into Faerun. For many years, these elves lived nomadic lives and spent much of their time exploring the waters of their new world. The aquatic elves did not begin to settle down and form permanent communities in the depths until the time of the First Crown War. They knew of the Crown Wars, and often watched the battles from the safety of the water, but kept their interactions with their landbound kin to a minimum. Unfortunately, their attempt to avoid becoming entangled in the wars proved futile, and by the time of the Fourth Crown War, many aquatic elves fled to the Sea of Fallen Stars to establish a new nation sheltered from the madness of their kin.
坠星海中的水生精灵已经建立起了几个不同大小的王国。他们主要的殖民地包括纳拉米尔和塞鲁马拉，分别位于龙谷和巨龙海岸。此外，还有几个前哨站位于维洪海岸以东和阿兰博以西，被称为沙克斯班墙。另一个名为faenasuor的殖民地位于星际地幔以东的大陆斜坡上，在阿格拉隆德以西的Fang的珊瑚礁中可以找到许多小村庄。在无轨海中，永聚岛附近的一个主要的海精灵城市被称为“海洋之母”。许多其他的殖民地也位于泰瑟尔的海岸。水生精灵曾与海洋中的邪恶种族，特别是沙华鱼人进行过许多战争，但地表居民对这些故事知之甚少。
The aquatic elves of the Sea of Fallen Stars have raised several distinct realms of varying size. Major colonies include Naramyr and Selu’Maraar, in the Dragonmere and Dragon Reach areas respectively. There are also several outposts east of the mouth of the Vilhon Reach and west of the Alamber, known as the Sharksbane Wall. Another colony called Faenasuor lies on the continental slopes east of Starmantle, and a number of small villages can be found among the reefs off the Fang of western Aglarond. In the Trackless Sea, a major sea elf city near Evermeet is called Iumathiashae (“Mother of Oceans”). Many additional colonies also lie off the coast of Tethyr. Aquatic elves have fought many wars against the evil races of the sea, especially the sahuagin, but surface-dwellers know very little of these tales.

性格Outlook

水生精灵被许多陆地居民视为害怕离开水面的轻浮、可疑的生物。虽然这不一定是真的，但是水生精灵只信任他的近邻和家人，即使他与任何居住在陆地上的精灵熟人都有着深厚的历史和文化纽带。

Aquatic elves are viewed by manyland-dwelling folk as skittish, distrustful creatures who are afraid to leavethe water. While this is not necessarily true, an aquatic elf trusts only hisclose neighbors and family, even though he shares many strong bonds of historyand culture with any land-dwelling elf acquaintance.

水生精灵认为联盟和群落意味着生存，而党派主义和傲慢意味着死亡。它们甚至对其他水生动物都十分冷漠，除非它是精灵的盟友或贸易伙伴。尽管如此，坠星海中的水生精灵们最近已经开始克服他们的自然倾向，并开始与他们的邻居开放水上和陆上贸易。

The aquatic elves believe that alliance andcommunity mean survival, while factionalism and arrogance mean death. They are standoffisheven to other aquatic races, except when it serves the elves to have allies ortrade partners. Despite this attitude, the aquatic elves of the Sea of FallenStars have recently started to overcome their natural tendencies, and havebegun to open trade with their neighbors, both aquatic and landbound.

 

水生精灵角色AQUATIC ELF CHARACTERS

水生精灵与许多邪恶和危险的种族共享海洋，如卡波辛斯、沙华鱼人、枯瘦巨魔和深海乌贼，并且通常会成为非常有能力的战士和游侠。他们对法师的学问和牧师的奉献几乎没有兴趣，但许多水生精灵走上了吟游诗人的道路，学习着奇异而美丽且强大的歌曲。在水生精灵中，术士比法师更常见。典型的多职业组合包括吟游诗人/战士、吟游诗人/术士和战士/游侠。

Aquatic elves share the seas with a numberof vicious and dangerous races, such as kapoacinths, sahuagin, scrags, andkrakens, and often become very capable fighters and rangers. They have littletaste for the wizard’s studies or the cleric’s devotions, but many aquatic elves take up the path of the bard,learning eerily beautiful songs of great power. Sorcerers are more common than wizardsamong the aquatic elves. Typical multiclass combinations include bard/fighter, bard/sorcerer,and fighter/ranger.

天赋职业：水生精灵最受欢迎的职业是战士。虽然水生精灵很少有有组织的军队，但个人战斗技能仍然是非常重要的。陆上的精灵可能更喜欢潜行和射箭，但是水下环境决定了近战的速度和技巧更受欢迎。

Favored Class: An aquatic elf’s favored class is fighter. While aquatic elves have few organizedarmies, individual fighting skills are highly prized. Landbound elves mayprefer stealth and archery, but the underwater environment dictates speed andskill in melee instead.

 

水生精灵社会Aquatic Elf Society

水生精灵形成了松散的封建社会。贵族以一种合理开明的方式进行统治，所有的社会习俗都遵循父权制的继承和权力转移结构。虽然女性在水生精灵中具有相当大的影响力，特别是作为吟游诗人和术士，但大部分的权力继承者仍然是最年长的男性后裔。

Aquatic elves form loose feudal societies.The nobility rules in a reasonably enlightened manner, and all socialconventions follow a patriarchal structure for inheritance and the transfers ofpower. While women wield considerable influence among aquatic elves, particularlyas bards and sorcerers, the bulk of the political power devolves on the eldestmale child.

水生精灵形成了紧密结合的群体。虽然每个家庭或单身居民都有自己的家，但私人财产却很少。水生精灵们通常共用工具、武器和其他杂七杂八的东西。一个需要某个特定物品的水生精灵只要发现这个物品就能拿去用，而不必担心后果。因此，相对来说偷盗在水生精灵社会中是不存在的；如果每个人都为群体共有的财产考虑，就不会出现偷盗。然而，这种态度并不会延伸到非季节性的精灵访客身上，而且这些访客经常被监视以确保他们没有偷盗。

Aquatic elves form closely knitcommunities. While each family or single resident often has a home to call hisor her own, private property is rare. Tools, weapons, and other miscellaneous objectstrade hands often. An aquatic elf in need of a particular item simply takes onehe finds, without fear of repercussion. Theft is relatively unknown in aquaticelf society as a result; one cannot steal something if everyone considers theobject community property. This attitude does not extend to nonaquatic elf visitors,however, and such visitors are often watched to make sure that they keep theirhands to themselves.

 

Language and Literacy

所有的水生精灵都会说精灵语，以一种独特的艾斯普汝阿风格书写，这显示出了水族语的影响。来自坠星海的水生精灵也会说塞鲁桑语，这是内海海洋民族的贸易语言，而来自大海或无轨海的水生精灵则会说水族语。这两种语言都使用水族语的字母表。有的水生精灵也学习地表世界的各种语言，特别是通用语言、琼达尔语和森林语。

All aquatic elves speak Elven, written witha distinctive style of Espruar characters that shows Aquan influences. Aquatic elvesnative to the Sea of Fallen Stars also speak Serusan, the trade language of themarine peoples of the Inner Sea, while aquatic elves from the Great Sea or theTrackless Sea speak Aquan. Both of these languages use the Aquan alphabet.Those aquatic elves who have the inclination also learn various languages ofthe surface world, notably Common, Chondathan, and Sylvan.

除了野蛮人、战士和平民外，所有水生精灵角色都是受过教育的。

All aquatic elf characters are literate, exceptfor barbarians, warriors, and commoners.

Abilities and Racial Features

水生精灵拥有玩家手册中列出的所有精灵种族特征，以下除外：

•+2灵巧，–2智能。这将取代大多数精灵获得的标准奖励和惩罚。水生精灵像陆地上的同类一样，步履敏捷，协调一致，虽然它们比其他大多数精灵结实，但这对学习几乎没有帮助。

•精通三叉戟、长矛和网。这取代了普通精灵长剑、剑和弓的熟练程度。

•游泳速度40尺。水生精灵在所有游泳项目检查中获得+8种族奖励，总是可以在游泳检定中取10，即使是仓促或威胁。水上精灵可以在游泳时使用奔跑动作，只要它们在直线上游泳。

•改进微光视觉（ex）：水生精灵在星光、月光、火把光和类似的弱光照条件下，拥有人类四倍的视力。在这些条件下，它们保持了区分颜色和细节的能力。

•鳃（前）：水生精灵轻松地在盐水中呼吸。他们也可以在淡水中呼吸，但大多数水生精灵认为这种经历是非常不舒服的，在这样做的10分钟后会被视为疲劳。水生精灵可以在离开水后生存1小时（之后，参考《地牢主人指南》第3章中的窒息规则）。

•母语：通用语、精灵语、地区语言。额外语言：水族语，龙语，巨人语。

•适合业：战士。

•等级调整：+1。水生精灵比费伦的其他大多数普通种族更强大，获得经验也更慢。更多信息请参见简介中的表1。

Aquatic elves have all the elven racial traitslisted in the Player’sHandbook, except as follows:

• +2 Dexterity, –2 Intelligence. This replaces the standard bonuses and penaltiesmost elves receive. Aquatic elves are as fleet of foot and coordinated as theirland-based kin, and while they are more sturdily built than most of the other elvensubraces, they have little use for study.

• Proficient with trident, longspear, and net. This replaces thestandard elven proficiency with longsword, rapier, and bow.

• Swim speed 40 feet. An aquatic elf gains a +8 racial bonus on allSwim checks and can always choose to take 10 with Swim checks, even if rushedor threatened. Aquatic elves can use the run action while swimming, as long asthey swim in a straight line.

• Improved Low-Light Vision (Ex): An aquatic elf can see four timesas far as a human in starlight, moonlight, torchlight, and similar conditionsof poor illumination. They retain the ability to distinguish color and detailunder these conditions.

• Gills (Ex): Aquatic elves breathe salt water with ease. They can alsobreathe fresh water, but most find the experience to be very uncomfortable andare treated as fatigued while doing so and for 10 minutes afterward. Aquaticelves can survive out of the water for 1 hour per point of Constitution (afterthat, refer to the suffocation rule in Chapter 3 of the DUNGEON MASTER’S Guide).

• Automatic Languages: Common, Elven, home region. Bonus Languages:Aquan, Draconic, Giant.

• Favored Class: Fighter.

• Level Adjustment: +1. Aquatic elves are more powerful and gainlevels more slowly than most of the other common races of Faerun. See Table 1in the Introduction for more information.

 

水生精灵魔法和传说Aquatic Elf Magic and Lore

在七个精灵亚种中，水生精灵是最不喜欢魔法的。这并不是说在他们的种类中没有施法者，只是在水生精灵社会中施法者与非施法者的比例更像是在矮人中一样，而不是人类或精灵。

Of the seven elven subraces, the aquaticelves are the ones who have embraced the art of magic the least. This is not tosay that there are no spellcasters among their kind, just that the proportion ofspellcasters to nonspellcasters in aquatic elf society is more like that foundamong dwarves than humans or elves.

然而，水生精灵的长寿让他能够和一个人类相比花更多的时间来完善他的魔法训练。

Nevertheless, the long life span of theaquatic elf allows him to spend much more time perfecting his magical trainingthan a similar human.

 

法术和施法SPELLS AND SPELLCASTING

水生精灵法师在特别固化的鲨鱼皮或纸莎草纸状厚纤维海藻上书写卷轴。在这两种情况下，材料都经过了炼金术处理（工艺（炼金术）DC10，每卷花费5 gp），以抵抗水下腐烂或损坏。这些油墨比地面上的油墨厚得多，而且粘性更大，接触水时不会扩散。

Aquatic elf wizards write scrolls onspecially cured sharkskin or on papyruslike sheets of thick, fibrous seaweed.In either case, both are alchemically treated (Craft (alchemy) DC 10, cost 5 gpper scroll) to resist rotting or damage from exposure to water. The inks aremuch thicker and more viscous than surface inks and do not diffuse upon contactwith water.

水生精灵魔法物品AQUATIC ELF MAGIC ITEMS

水生精灵与他们的近亲使用的魔法物品范围相同，尽管由于精灵在水下的存在，它们在形式上经常被改变。例如，水生精灵已经开发出“药水”，更接近于无垢物、浆糊，甚至是神奇的海果或海藻。卷轴是在经过特殊处理的鲨鱼皮或海草纸草上制作的。通常由金属制成的魔法物品是由不会在盐水中腐蚀的材料制成的。

Aquatic elves have the same range of magicitems used by their surface kin, although they are by necessity often alteredin form due to the elves’ underwater existence. For example, the aquatic elves have developed“potions”that are closer to unguents, pastes, or evenmagic sea fruits or seaweed. Scrolls are prepared on specially treatedsharkskins or sea-reed papyrus. Magic items normally crafted out of metal aremade from materials that do not corrode in salt water.

水生精灵不会穿太多的衣服，所以魔法服装是罕见的，包括盔甲。穿盔甲往往会妨碍水生精灵的游泳能力。水生精灵在战斗中依靠灵巧和魔法的保护手段，如保护环和天然盔甲护身符。

Aquatic elves do not wear much clothing, somagical garments are rare, including armor. Wearing armor tends to hamper anaquatic elf’s ability to swim. Aquatic elves rely upon Dexterity and magicalmeans of protection in battle, such as rings of protection and amuletsof natural armor.

标志性物品：水生精灵在他们的定居点周围的堡礁巡逻，经常携带宁静的三叉戟（见附录）。只要这样的三叉戟在附近，他们憎恨的敌人，沙华鱼人，将无法进入血腥狂热。

Iconic Item: Aquatic elves patrolling the barrier reefs around their settlementsfrequently carry tridents of serenity (see the appendix). As longas such a trident is nearby, their hated foes, the sahuagin, will be unable toenter blood frenzy.

 

水生精灵神Aquatic Elf Deities

虽然水生精灵承认席德瑞恩诸神，他们真正的神祗是深海·塞悉拉。几乎所有的水生精灵都在某种程度上崇拜海底之王。所有水生精灵城市都有专门建造深海·塞悉拉的寺庙。这些建筑通常用石头建造，雕刻成巨大的贝壳；它们是许多水生精灵社区的精神、物质和社会中心。一些宗教的水生精灵在海上游荡，随波逐流，在海底世界的自然美景中欢欣鼓舞，并将他们的神的话传播给他们遇到的所有人。

Although the aquatic elves acknowledge theSeldarine, their true deity is Deep Sashelas. Almost all aquatic elves veneratethe Lord of the Undersea to some extent. Temples dedicated to Deep Sashelas canbe found in all aquatic elf cities. These buildings are usuallybuilt of stone and carved to resemble gargantuan shells; theyserve as the spiritual, physical, and social centers of manyaquatic elven communities. Some religious aquatic elves wanderthe seas, floating with the currents, exulting in the naturalbeauty of the undersea world, and spreading the word of theirlord to all they encounter.

 

与其他种族的关系Relations with Other Races

水生精灵是一个谨慎的种族。虽然有许多种族对水生精灵友好，如人鱼族和梭螺海人，但在深海中也有同样多的威胁。因此，水生精灵通常呆在他们的城市里，只有在被迫的时候才会与他人互动。这种谨慎延伸到了地面社区，但也往往伴随着好奇心。住在近岸的水生精灵经常花很长时间观察他们呼吸空气的邻居。他们很少区分陆上居住的精灵的亚种。

Aquatic elves are a cautious folk. Althoughthere are many races friendly to the aquatic elves, such as the merfolk and thetritons, there are just as many menaces in the deeps. As a result, aquatic elvesremain in their cities and interact with others only when forced to. Thiscaution extends to surface communities, but is often tempered with curiosity.Aquatic elves who live close to shore often spend long hours spying on theirair-breathing neighbors. They make little distinction between the variouslanddwelling subraces of elves.

在水生精灵的背景下，特别应该提到一个种族：沙华鱼人。水生精灵对这些海中恶魔有着强烈的、盲目的仇恨，并且经常对他们发动毫无意义的战争。克服水生精灵天生的羞怯和警惕性的一个可靠方法是给他机会去攻击并杀死一些他的种族的敌人。

One race in particular should be mentionedin the context of the aquatic elves: The sahuagin. Aquatic elves possess afierce, blinding hatred for the sea devils and often wage senseless wars againstthem. The one sure way to overcome an aquatic elf’s natural shyness and wariness is to offer him the chance to attack andpossibly kill some of his race’s hated enemies.

 

水生精灵装备Aquatic Elf Equipment

水生精灵很少使用金属工具，因为大多数金属不可避免地会受到海水腐蚀的损害。黄金则是个明显的例外。许多水生精灵已经掌握了将黄金打造成漂亮珠宝的艺术，因为在水下锻造金属几乎是不可能的。在大多数情况下，他们的工具、武器和盔甲是由他们在水下拥有的材料制成的，比如石头、珊瑚和各种各样的贝壳。沉船是水生精灵的主要材料来源，尽管他们很小心地纪念那些在掠夺沉船货舱之前死去的人。由于在水下喝普通瓶子里的药水很困难，水生精灵使用药水囊（见附录）来保存他们的药水。

Aquatic elves rarely use metal tools due tothe inevitable damage most metals suffer to saltwater corrosion. One notableexception is gold. Many aquatic elves have mastered the art of beating gold intobeautiful jewelry, because forging metals is all but impossible underwater. Forthe most part, their tools, weapons, and armor are made from materials theyhave on hand underwater, such as stone, coral, and shells of various sorts.Shipwrecks are a major source of materials for aquatic elves, although they arecareful to honor any who may have died before looting the sunken cargo holds. Becauseof the difficulty in drinking potions underwater from normal vials, aquaticelves use potion bladders (see the appendix) to hold their potions.

 

武器与护甲ARMS AND ARMOR

在一个水下世界里，击打和切割武器的效率远不及穿透武器。因此，三叉戟和长矛是水生精灵最喜欢的武器，这些武器在整个海底王国中有着惊人的种类和款式。骨头，独角鲸的角，甚至珊瑚都能够被用来制造这些武器。虽然它们比常规的钢制武器更脆弱，但易于制造。配重网也是水生精灵中的一种流行的武器，他们完善了投掷此类武器的方法，使它们能在水中漂浮和展开，就像大型的八字鱼或蝠鲼。如《地牢领主指南》所述，由劣质材料制成的武器具有-2攻击和伤害惩罚（最小伤害为1）。水上精灵通常会避免使用盔甲，原因有两个：第一，它会减慢它们的游泳速度和敏捷性。第二，大多数金属在水下会随着时间的推移而变质。因此，大多数水生精灵仅仅依靠它们的天生的敏捷在战斗中保护自己。用贝壳制作的盾牌是很常见的，那些富裕的精灵经常使用魔法保护手段，比如保护环和自然盔甲护身符。

In an underwater world, bludgeoning andslashing weapons are nowhere near as efficient as piercing weapons. Tridentsand spears are therefore the favored weapons of the aquatic elves, and theseweapons can be found in amazing varieties and styles throughout the variousundersea communities. Bone, narwhal horns, and even coral are used to buildthese weapons. Although they are more fragile than regular steel weaponry, theyare easy to construct. Weighted nets are also a popular weapon for aquaticelves, who have perfected methods of throwing such weapons so that they driftand unfold in the water almost like large octopi or manta rays. As described inthe DUNGEON MASTER’S Guide, weapons made of inferiormaterials have a –2 attack and damage penalty (with a minimum damage of 1). Armor isgenerally eschewed by aquatic elves for two reasons.First, it slows theirswimming speed and agility. Second, most metal deteriorates over time underwater.As a result, most aquatic elves simply rely on their natural quickness to protectthem in combat. Shields crafted from shells are common, and those elves withthe resources often resort to magical means of protection such as rings ofprotection and amulets of natural armor.

独特的物品：生活在被沙华鱼人或其他敌人骚扰地区的水生精灵，已经想出了两种巧妙的盔甲形式，在陆地或水下同样有效。这两种新型装甲包括鲨鱼皮装甲和几丁质装甲（见附录）。

Unique Items: Aquatic elves living in areas that are harassed by sahuagin or otherenemies have come up with two ingenious forms of armor that work equally wellon land or underwater. These two new forms of armor include sharkskin armor andchitin armor (see the appendix).

水生精灵武器匠也掌握了制作能在水下发射的弓的技术。虽然它们没有水面精灵长弓的射程，但是水中长弓（也在附录中）为水下精灵提供了一种强有力的远程武器用于水下战斗。

Aquatic elf weaponsmiths have also masteredthe art of crafting bows that can fire underwater. While they lack the range ofa surface elf’s longbow, the aquatic longbow (also in the appendix) providesaquatic elves with a potent ranged weapon for underwater combat.

 

动物和宠物ANIMALS AND PETS

水生精灵对海豚和鼠海豚有很强的亲和力，它们与这些水生哺乳动物通常生活在相同的地区。大多数水生精灵聚集地都有一些这样的生物作为守护者、信使和顽皮的伙伴。水生精灵也对较大的鲸鱼有着很高的尊重，尽管大型海洋哺乳动物的迁徙习性排除了招募它们作为守卫或同伴的可能性，但许多水生精灵沿着鲸类既定的迁徙路线建立聚集地，以便能够每年两次接受来自这些庄严的生物的拜访。一个年轻的水生精灵经常离开家一年，只是为了陪伴一群迁移的鲸鱼。

Aquatic elves have a strong affinity fordolphins and porpoises, and they usually live in the same areas as theseaquatic mammals. Most aquatic elf communities have several of these creatures asguardians, messengers, and playful companions. Aquatic elves also have a greatand abiding respect for the larger whales, and although the migratory habits ofthe great sea mammals precludes the possibility of recruiting them as guardiansor companions, many aquatic elves build communities along established migrationroutes so that twice yearly they receive visits from the stately creatures. Ayoung aquatic elf often leaves home for a year just to accompany a pod of migratingwhales.

一些水生精灵聚集地也被认为可以训练和饲养海狮作为守卫，特别是在危险地区。鲨鱼普遍为水生精灵所憎恶。许多人认为这些生物是非自然的怪物，被他们的敌人，沙华鱼人的扭曲所玷污。

Some aquatic elf communities have beenknown to train and keep sea lions as guardians as well, especially in dangerousareas. Sharks are universally hated by aquatic elves. Many think of thesecreatures as unnatural monsters tainted with perversion by their enemies, the sahuagin.

水生精灵地区Aquatic Elf Region

水生精灵是孤立主义者，因此大多数只生活在水生精灵王国，具体如下。一个水生精灵偶尔会与一个与他的祖国接壤的地区有足够的接触，以选择一个地表王国作为他的家乡。
