Orchan
Orchans have a rich aquatic culture that values community and cooperation. They often form close-knit family groups and work together to ensure the prosperity of their communities. Known for their affinity for the sea, many Orchans live in underwater settlements along coastlines or beneath the surface of the ocean.

race features:
Hold Breath: Orchans can hold their breath for up to 30 minutes. Aquatic Heritage: You are adapted to life in the water. You can breathe underwater, and you gain proficiency in the Athletics skill. Echolocation: You can use your echolocation to navigate and detect creatures underwater. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing while underwater. Powerful Build: You count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag, or lift. Sonar Pulse: Once per short rest, as an action, you can emit a sonar pulse in a 60-foot cone. All creatures in that cone must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus) or be deafened for 1 minute. Deafened creatures can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending the effect on a success. This ability reflects the Orchan's ability to use echolocation defensively. Ocean's Resilience: You have advantage on saving throws against being frightened, and you have resistance to cold damage. Your connection to the depths of the ocean grants you a measure of resilience against fear and the biting cold of the deep sea.
