Sklymir

Sklymir are an amphibious race of aliens hailing from the planet Prothytreus.

Appearance
Sklymir are humanoid, built very thin and tall, and have scales all over their body. Their coloration is often light colours such as blues, greens, and whites. Males have brighter colors than females, a characteristic carried over from evolution. Their arms and legs have fins along them and their digits are webbed.

Sklymir facial features are sharp. They have pointed bone structure, and lack noses and facial hair. Their eyes are one uniform color, usually black. Their mouths are wide and have thin lips. Some Sklymir have hair on their head which is often slightly darker than their scale colour. The front of Sklymir bodies are a pale colour contratsing their scale colour.

The skeletal system of Sklymir seems like a combination of a human skeleton and a fish skeleton, allowing for living above and below water. Their organ system is also made for both environments. They have all the same organs that humans do, as well as a set of gills and a sac to change their bouyancy in water.

Besides colouration, the only other sexual dimorphism between male and female is size and build. Males tend be larger and more muscular, their fins are also slightly larger, though this serves no advantage in movement and is simply another method of attracting a mate. Females have no accentuated breasts due primarly to the fact that Sklymir are more closely related to fish or amphibians than mammals and, as such, do not personally feed their young.
