The Kurshok are a race of amphibious humanoids who reside within sunken ruins deep beneath the waves. It’s said they once served the Trickster several thousand years ago, but were exiled in a disaster they would later refer to as the ‘Great Fall’ in which the their Citadel was swallowed by the sea.
Kurshok legend claims this was done by the Trickster as punishment after their king proclaimed he was more glorious and powerful than the god.
Although most perished in the calamity, some Kurshok survived and adapted to their new aquatic environment. They dwell there still, passing down stories of former glory and hoping for the day that their race will return to wreak vengeance upon the Trickster and his servants.
Strengths
Kurshok are imposing to behold, towering over the average human. They also possess great strength and forge their weapons accordingly, wielding swords no ordinary man could hope to lift.
With these massive blades they can easily slay any enemy they might encounter. And while not as intelligent as they once were, the Kurshok are still able to patrol an area, summon their allies, and kill intruders.
Weaknesses
Despite their combat prowess, they can be dispatched with a Blade, slain with an Arrow, or knocked out with a Blackjack or Gas Bomb much like other humanoids. Explosive Mines are similarly effective, but as always are not ideal when stealth is key.
