This extends to the beginning of their lives, with vast fields of benthonir buds growing on the walls of ocean trenches. \n'b'  Kraken Cultists . Vast schools of benthonir gather in the trenches. There they worship the krakens they believe created them from the lesser creatures of the trenches and, at the krakens\xe2\x80\x99 behest, wage war on the asquenti realms above. In their pantheon, the krakens only bend knee to the even greater Vulnatatoa. \n'b'  Mutations . With their great numbers and ever-shifting form, it comes as no  surprise  that the benthonir are susceptible to a wide variety of mutations. Few surface dwellers have seen a normal benthonir and fewer still recognize them as kin to the mutants who can be found on the surface. Thankfully for surface dwellers, the benthonir can only bud in the trenches, leaving the surface as yet uninvaded. \n'b' Fire Shark benthonirs have red coloration that gathers in scales over their transparent flesh. This appearance grants them advantage on  Dexterity  ( Stealth ) checks while in the vast kelp jungles below he waves. They are also immune to fire rather than cold and often have multiple arms. \n'b' Human Born benthonirs look completely  human  but lose fast healing and their swim speed, instead gaining a normal 30-foot land speed. They can suppress their bite, claw, and morphic form as a bonus action. Using these abilities can reveal their true nature, but otherwise detecting their benthoniri biology requires close examination requiring at least 1 hour and a successful DC 20  Intelligence  ( Nature ) check. \n'b' Human Mimic benthonirs look like incomplete  human  beings, wrinkled as their flesh constantly melts and reforms, but could be mistaken for elderly humans in poor  light . They have a land speed of 30 feet and a swim speed of 20 feet. \n'b' Namonti benthonirs look like asquenti and can only be distinguished with a cursory medical examination ( Wisdom  ( Medicine ) DC 10) or scoring a critical hit on them in combat. \n'b' They also possess the base asquenti pincer, sonic lance, and sonic pincer attacks rather than their claw and bite.'
