A triton has silvery skin that fades into silver-blue scales on the lower half of its body. A triton’s hair is deep blue or blue-green.

A triton is about the same size and weight as a human. Tritons speak Common and Aquan.

===Combat===

The reclusive tritons prefer to avoid combat, but they fiercely defend their homes. They attack with either melee or ranged weapons as the circumstances warrant. When encountered outside their lair, they are 90% likely to be mounted on friendly sea creatures such as porpoises.

'''[[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|Spell-Like Abilities]]:''' 1/day—''[[SRD:Summon Nature's Ally IV|summon nature’s ally IV]].'' [[SRD:Caster Level|Caster level]] 7th. Tritons often choose water [[SRD:Elemental Type|elementals]] for their companions.

'''[[SRD:Skills (Creature Statistic)|Skills:]]''' A triton has a +8 racial bonus on any [[SRD:Swim Skill|Swim]] check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a [[SRD:Swim Skill|Swim]] check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line.
