==Biology==

The Fyltir Kin'toni are adapted to the, swampy, wet, soft-grounded [[Flooded Grassland of Lyss]]. They are tall and lightweight of build, with an long torso. This allows them to partially submerged or traverse shallow water with minimal resistance. Their build is fragile, and less resistant to blunt force impacts. The skin is thin, with coloration in dull greens and browns to hide in the swamps. This skin is coated in an highly regenerative hydrophobic secretion to instantly shed water. This stops waterlogging and maintains body temperature.

The skin being thin, is vulnerable to wounds and localized skin infections. They lack all body hair, and in replacement have stiff sensory filaments on their skin along the spine and limbs. These are able to detect even the smallest movements in the water, but can lead to them being disoriented in turbulent conditions. The eyes are small, and dark green in color, with an clear nictitating membrane (third eyelid) that sweeps horizontally. This is to protect from silt and waterborne debris. The downside of this is an lack of depth perception.

They lack outer ears with the auditory canals protected by flexible, cartilage-reinforced flaps, able to seal tight to keep out water. The nostrils are small and located high on the bridge of the very flat nose. This allows them to breathe while nearly submerged. In their mouths, the teeth are long, with large gaps and fine lateral grooves. These can filter blood from marsh water or muddy sediment and bite into fish and other small marsh lifeforms. The downside of these is that the teeth are weak, and often break when trying to bite into the dense hides of larger terrestrial prey.

The claws are short, needle like and semi-retractable. These claws are used to anchor themselves into the soft, muddy ground for stability while stalking. These claws are bad for climbing, lacking the hooked shape and length of climbing claws. Feet are long and paddle-like with an highly flexible joint structure and wide, thin webbing. This way, the thrust in water is maximized and the sinking in mud is minimized. The downside of this is that running across firm, uneven ground is extremely clumsy.

The circulatory system has an enhanced capacity for peripheral vasoconstriction. With this, they can drastically reduce blood flow to the limbs to conserve core heat whilst in cold water, but can lead to intense pain, then numbness, then even necrosis. The metabolic rate is very slow, and cold adapted to allow them lie dormant and motionless in the water for hours. In this torpid state, they are extremely slow to react if suddenly ambushed. The bones are lightweight, hollow and fragile, adapted to have a level of natural buoyancy that allows them to float and conserve energy in the shallow flooded areas.

These bones are fragile and shatter easily under impact. They have an immune system that produces potent, broad-spectrum anti-pathogenic proteins. With this, they can be immune to the vast array of bacteria and parasites found in stagnant marsh water. This only works on bacteria and parasites native to the Flooded Grassland.
