Description Halders appear to be anthropomorphic sponges. Their bodies are made entirely of sponge. They have arms and legs and a head, but their bodies can reform into other shapes at will.
Procreation With each other, or through budding.
Magic One in five million have heart or soul magic. Mind and body magic are possible. Void is possible. Faith is not uncommon. Halders absorb supernatural energies and can release them at will.
Special Powers Halders can absorb supernatural energies and release them at will. They are capable of restructuring their bodies at will. Some are photosynthetic, but most absorb food from the small creatures that swim through or past them in the waters. Halders have spicules, spiny frames that help support them, which they can also release from their bodies and use as weapons, and they have toxins they can release into the waters as well.
Weaknesses Filth.
Culture Halders live in small communities throughout the underwater realms. They have no real social structures, for there is no strong need even for parental care of children. They simply grow, absorb, and grow some more. In temperate to arctic waters, they live about 100 years, but in warmer waters, they live upwards of 500 years.
