The Naysha are one of the first generation of the Pelted.
Appearance and Biology
Naysha are an air-breathing aquatic species with both human and cetacean DNA. They have humanoid torsos and delphine bodies, with fishlike skin and webbed digits. Their heads are hairless and their eyes are as big as a fist. Naysha are nine to ten feet long.[1][2][3]
Communication
The Naysha use sign language to communicate. Computer translations are possible, but those who interact with Naysha frequently may choose to learn sign and use it, both for practice and courtesy.[1] Naysha who frequently interact with drylanders may give them new individual names that are faster to sign than spelling out their names letter by letter.[1][4]
