Giant Sea Horses
I wonder if these are meant to be identical with the giant sea horses in the 5e Monster Manual, p. 328. ~ Lhynard (talk) 07:07, April 15, 2020 (UTC)


 * From what I understand, they have the same uses but are more likely to be a kind of sea horse without the magical attributes of hippocampus which can, for example, talk. Sylaruil (talk) 07:30, April 15, 2020 (UTC)
 * I found something interesting on that matter in Sea of Fallen Stars (sourcebook)  p. 39 "Sponges and only the hardiest of kelp and coral survive at these depths. Scavengers and deep-water fish begin to dominate the food chains at these depths, and great herds of wild hippocampi and sea horses roam among these currents."  This may suggest that they are two different races, even if it does not mention textually that the sea horses are giant Sylaruil (talk) 09:36, April 15, 2020 (UTC)
