Jellyfolk

Behavior: Utterly soundless, these beings are generally spotted drifting in the waves at the ocean's surface during the day but due to the translucence of their skin, they are often mistaken for carcasses or completely overlooked. At night however, Jellyfolk seem to come alive using their limbs to actively swim through the sea and sometimes even climbing to shore. For what reasons they step onto land is unknown, but overall appear to be a docile and benign species. In the water, the bioluminescent tips adorning the multiple tendrils protruding from their body serve as lures to attract fish. Their skin shares the same properties as jellyfish tentacles in the fact that it is lined with countless microscopic stingers which seem to activate upon touch.

Details: Although completely lacking the ability to produce sound, they seem to communicate via pulsing lights, body language, and crude gestures with their limbs. Sentient communication attempts have proven unfruitful as of yet.
