Silgueh (Kylorne)

The Silgueh are a species originating in the deepest places of the Therian ocean, which some of them call "Suwiluo". The species is closely related to the Therian Glow Squid, made obvious by their appearance. Over time though, they have begun to spread across the Therian Ocean, with some even being seen near the surface.

Overview
Despite bearing a resemblance to the glow squid, the Silgueh are still very different in appearance. A Silgueh has a vaguely humanoid shape, with four large tentacles functioning as their arms and legs. They also have several smaller tentacles near their mouth, to help with grabbing food and other small objects.

Blood
Being cephalopods, one major seperation between Silgueh and other races is their blue blood, a trait supposedly shared by the Aygueh. This has led to a theory that Silgueh may be immune to vampirism due to incompatible blood. Attempts have been made to prove this, but no vampire has yet found Silgueh blood appetising enough to try it. In a similar vein, magic that uses Silgueh blood is slightly different from normal blood magic.

Silg
Like the glow squid, each Silgueh has more or less spots on their body of a bioluminescent substance called "Silg". Silg ranges from teal to red, and is always the same color as a Silgueh's eyes. The Silgueh hold this Silg in such high regard that the name for their species literally translates to "Silg People". They can also use Silg to make a 'shimmering' sound that many Silgueh language frequently incorporate, meaning that speaking them is impossible for most non-Silgueh. Silg can also sometimes be used in magic, or even as an underwater replacement for fire. Silgueh will also sometimes put Silg into their clothes to make them easier to manipulate.

Cultures and Ethnicities
There are many different Silgueh ethnicities, some of them are listed here

Niwonueh
A nomadic group of Silgueh who eventually settled in an ocean monument containing the last elder guardian, founding the nation of Prysal. They see themselves as the 'succesors' to the ancient race who once inhabited the monuments and revere them almost like gods, even naming their nation after their empire of old.

Lorkelueh
Often called 'reverse sailors' by other races, they're often seen sailing through rivers or even traveling in caravans on land. While some are peaceful, others resort to stealing and raiding anything they come across that's worth the trouble. They believe everything above water to be sacred, and that the gods made them unable to breathe air so only those who are worthy can enter their domain.

Glarueh
Also known as the Kraken Riders
