Demigod
Occasionally the gods of the Kerunan Sea get bored see to their domain or feel constrained by the limits of their island and forsake it for a life of adventure, though at a cost of most of their divine power. While they maintain a shard of their former might, they are now more mortal than god, though it remains to be seen if such a god could take his mantle back up...or if someone else could claim it.- Ability Score Increase.

Scalefolk
It is said during the final battle of the War Before, one of the gods who rose up against Keruna was slain by the blow that killed her, and this gods corpse shattered and fell with hers.

Triton
Tritons are aquatic humans who primarily hail from the Triton Empire far to the south. Most tritons spend their entire lives underwater; because of this their culture lacks many signs of civilization possessed by other cultures, such as cooking, writing, etc. They are considered by most a barbaric, tribal society that would be more of a danger to the Kerunan Sea if it was closer and its people did not fight among themselves so much. The tritons divide themselves up into clans along different bloodlines, each clan favor different parts of the Empire; for example Clan Walrus is only found in the coldest extremes of the Empire.
The Triton Empire is not in fact ruled by tritons, but aboleths who have bent the warlords of the largest tribes to their will. The aboleths lord over their minions and use them like fodder in wars of aggression against aquatic and surface foes; the Triton Empire has destroyed shaguin and merfolk nations in its day. Those tritons in the Kerunan Sea are usually refugees looking for a better life than that found under their tentacled overlords.
