SAKORTS!!
Fish and bones people! Sakandemorts are their full specie name, but it’s easier to trim it down. Another “magic focused” spieces. ‘Sakana’ meaning fish and ‘de la mort’ being ‘of the dead’, mix em together and you get sakort lol. Not to confuse with a skort/skirt shorts.
Special thanks to the spotted handfish for the reference of a hand on a fish.
There ain’t much to there biology, since it’s mostly bare bones. But most of the action happens in the bones, so their spinal cord is somewhat bigger than other creatures is that more things can happen in it. Same with other bones themselves, like arm, ribs, etc. the spinal cord has its nerve bundle and veins to send to the visible body parts, as-well as the throat/airway and esophagus, which only go max halfway down the cord.
Magic cores work as the transporters and “blood” and such for the non visible parts/ inner organs, so nerve signals connects from there to the ribs, that way if something happens in there, the cores will know and send a signal to the brain. Which means sakorts will most likely feel pain in their ribs if there’s an organ problem.
So overall it’s a bit half & half on biology workings, where blood and regular bio help the outside body and magic bio helps the inside.
No not all of the sakorts have damaged fins and such, they gain that through interactions with people, where they roughhouse/play fight each other. The smoother the fin, the more pity another sakort will feel for the other, since it means you don’t talk to anyone and a loner haha. On the other hand, they admire the most damaged fins, since to them it means they’re popular. Overall, very social people, and yes they usually wear some kind of shirt, most likely a drape of some kind, something easier to take off if they want to go in the water that’s usually around. They are fish still.
And that be all for them! Slightly shorter then the last one but i hope thou enjoyed!
