Nivasi: The Aquatic born
Parent Constellation: Hydra
Pronunciation: Nih-Vah-See

The Nivasi are a rather secluded people, preferring to live beside the water - be it the sea, river, or lakes and ponds. These people seem to be more at peace when near water, and the further away they are from it the more irritable they seem to get. Not to say that they're not temperamental with the water around, either. Oh, no. The Nivasi are a fairly temperamental and just a touch on the unstable side. Think of an extreme bipolar with territorial issues. Once they claim a body of water, it is THEIRS, and anyone trespassing probably have issues on their hands. Navasi are unable to make any other body of water their home once they have claimed one as their home.

Unlike most of the races, their color palettes are definitely not usually in the human range. They generally have hair in shades of blue, white, brown and green and their eyes are always, without fail, blue. Their skin tends to be colored in the pale range, sometimes tinted blue or green, and tends to have a near constantly 'wet' feeling to it. As with most of the races, they can have the features of anything related to what they are 'blessed' by. In this case, they can have the features of any aquatic animal - scales, fins, spines, etc.

The Navasi keep their hair long and cutting it outside of a small trim to get rid of split ends is considered a crime. Only those who have been outcast and dishonored have their hair cut short, and it is considered a very severe punishment. They also have slightly sharpened, pointed teeth that is used to cut into meat. They are carnivores, and their usual diet contains little to no vegetation.

This race has strong Tiya, though it can only be used in water based magic and they are extremely weak against Earth magics, while particularly strong against fire. The further away they are from their 'claimed' water source, the weaker their Tiya is. Close to their home body of water, they also have the ability to regenerate lost limbs, at the cost of much energy and a very slow process.

Navasi are skilled weavers, usually using grasses and seaweed in it, and they are also fairly skilled at music - both playing stringed instruments and singing. Their voices are rather addicting, and it's said that once you hear the song of the Navasi, it will stick with you your entire life.

Their lifespan is generally in the low hundreds - longer than the Rikono, but definitely shorter than the Celestials.
