Merfolk is a starting race in [[SpliceHack]]. Their racial abilities make them very strong spellcasters, and their ability to travel via water make certain sections of the mid game and late game much simpler, reducing the importance of levitation.

== Equipment ==
In general, merfolk have better than usual starting materials. They begin the game with [[crossbow|crossbows]] instead of [[bow|bows]], [[oilskin sack|oilskin sacks]] instead of [[sack|sacks]], and [[trident|tridents]] instead of [[spear|spears]] and [[mace|maces]]. Notably, all merfolk start the game with basic skill in trident, and can advance trident to expert level.

== Intrinsics ==
* Level 1: [[Swimming]]
* Level 7: [[Breathless|Magical Breathing]]
* In addition to their other abilities, merfolk can swim without any of their carried items sustaining water damage.

== Level Generation ==
When playing as a merfolk, there is a greatly increased chance of levels being partially flooded with water. This can make dungeon navigation difficult.
