Kip Blacklake. Daring explorer. Master sailor. While not many who have met him consider his two foot stature particularly tall, the same cannot be said about the tales that he often spins. While it is true that he was the first in his tribe to cross Black Pond, the swampy body of water he once called home, and it is true that he has since spent his time traveling across any body of water he can find, the details are frequently stretched and distorted nearly beyond recognition. Kip loves to recount the tales of his harrowing crossing of the vast expanse of Black Lake, a body of water that grows in size with each telling. The stories he tells of his time fighting (and joining) river pirates are among his favorite, despite the fact that the closest he ever got to pirates was his time spent working a river barge and they smuggled a halfling out of Cheliax. And of course, no night of loosened tongues would be complete without an elaborate retelling of his heroics in Twisttree Bay, when Kip saw a wayward sea monster thrashing about, devouring everything in sight. Naturally, our hero baited the creature into swallowing him whole, only to slash his way out with his rapier, and accidentally rescuing Gerald in the process.

While his stories frequently have only the smallest grain of truth within them, Kip is well-liked and a fierce friend. His constant companion, Gerald the pufferfish, can frequently be spotted poking his face out from behind the lip of Kip's cap, his water-less survival vexing many of his former crew. Recently, Kip heard of an expedition to a far away land, across the sea - the largest body of water Kip has ever seen. Eager to experience such a thing, Kip quickly signed up,
and now he has taken the first step to discovering what sort of discoveries have been driving him to the deep water.

Expert Explorer (Knowledge Geography): Adventurous scholars raised you, or perhaps you were born during an expedition and haven’t known any other life. You get fidgety and impatient when you become too familiar with a certain place. You are used to having excitement and the quest for knowledge guides your path in life, and you picked up a number of skills along the way that relate to this lifestyle. During your interview with the Bountiful Venture Company, they were impressed with the diverse locations you’ve visited in your life and selected you because of your skills in maneuvering uncharted territory. Choose one Knowledge skill when you gain this trait. You gain a +1 trait bonus to check with that Knowledge skill and Survival checks, and either that Knowledge skill or Survival is a class skill for you. In addition, you treat the machete as a simple weapon.

Special Abilities
--------------------
Aquatic Domain

Granted Powers:

Sealord (Su): You can channel energy (as a cleric of your druid level) a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier, but only to heal creatures with the aquatic or water subtype or to command them (similar to using the Command Undead feat against undead). You can take other feats to add to this ability, such as Extra Channel and Improved Channel, but not feats that alter this ability, such as Elemental Channel and Alignment Channel. The DC to save against this ability is equal to 10 + 1/2 your druid level + your Charisma modifier.

Seastrike (Su): At 6th level, as a free action, you may use natural and manufactured weapons in water as if you had continuous freedom of movement. As a standard action, you can throw a weapon underwater without the normal penalties for throwing weapons; if your target is in or under the water, the weapon also acts as a returning weapon for that attack.

Domain Spells: 1st—hydraulic push, 2nd—slipstream, 3rd—water breathing, 4th—freedom of movement, 5th—black tentacles, 6th—freezing sphere, 7th—animal shapes (aquatic creatures only), 8th—seamantle, 9th—tsunami.

Class features

Armor and Weapon Proficiencies
Druids are proficient with the following weapons: club, dagger, dart, quarterstaff, scimitar, scythe, sickle, shortspear, sling, and spear. They are also proficient with all natural attacks (claw, bite, and so forth) of any form they assume with wild shape (see below).
A tempest druid is proficient with the trident. This is in addition to the armor and weapon proficiencies of a normal druid.

Spontaneous Domain Casting
A tempest druid can channel stored spell energy into domain spells that she has not prepared ahead of time. She can “lose” a prepared spell in order to cast any domain spell of the same level or lower.
This replaces the druid’s normal ability to spontaneously cast summon spells.

Nature Bond (Ex)
A tempest druid may not choose an animal companion, and must instead select a domain when she gains the Nature Bond ability. A tempest druid must choose the Air or Weather domain, the Cloud, Storms, or Wind subdomain, or the Aquatic or Swamp domain.

Sodden Shore Sense (Ex)
A tempest druid gains a +4 bonus on Knowledge (nature) and Survival checks in coastal and marshy lands.
This ability replaces nature sense.

Wild Empathy (Ex)
A druid can improve the attitude of an animal. This ability functions just like a Diplomacy check made to improve the attitude of a person. The druid rolls 1d20 and adds her druid level and her Charisma modifier to determine the wild empathy check result.

The typical domestic animal has a starting attitude of indifferent, while wild animals are usually unfriendly.

To use wild empathy, the druid and the animal must be able to study each other, which means that they must be within 30 feet of one another under normal conditions. Generally, influencing an animal in this way takes 1 minute but, as with influencing people, it might take more or less time.

A druid can also use this ability to influence a magical beast with an Intelligence score of 1 or 2, but she takes a –4 penalty on the check.

Favored class bonus
Half-Orc Add +⅓ to the druid’s natural armor bonus when using wild shape.

Feat and Skill Racial Traits
• Intimidating: Half-orcs receive a +2 racial bonus on Intimidate checks due to their fearsome nature.
Offense Racial Traits
• Sacred Tattoo: Many half-orcs decorate themselves with tattoos, piercings, and ritual scarification, which they consider sacred markings. Half-orcs with this racial trait gain a +1 luck bonus on all saving throws. This racial trait replaces orc ferocity.
• Weapon Familiarity: Half-orcs are proficient with greataxes and falchions and treat any weapon with the word “orc” in its name as a martial weapon.
• Sea Raider: Half-orcs frequently take up sailing as pirates, raiders, and fishers, where they are known as tenacious fighters. They gain a +2 racial bonus on Profession (sailor) checks and Craft checks to repair ships, and a +1 racial bonus on damage rolls against foes and objects in or on top of the water. This racial trait replaces darkvision

Other Racial Traits
• Orc Blood: Half-orcs count as both humans and orcs for any effect related to race.

This remarkable girl was born to an elven slave of an Orc Raiding tribe. The Boneblades Clan was a nomadic coastal terror. The clan was so hard to kill, because it was always on the move on the land and on the sea. Most slave children are not given names until they prove themselves. Touched gained he name earlier than any in living memory. She would start to spasm, then go into obscene tirades biting into the recipient with the darkest truths of themselves.(Tourettes with supernatural bent)

Luckily, the Chief Jawbreaker saw the gods touched child for what she was. She was Power. Unfortunately that power did not save them. While raiding a merchants ship off the coast, the local authorities sprung a nautical trap. While swarmed by enemy ships, the Boneblades fought to the last warrior. Touched slipped herself beneath the waves and escaped unnoticed during the fog of battle. She found her way to Bountiful Venture Company. They saw her value and hired her on the spot.

Cavaliers who join the order of the eel believe communication
and negotiation are the true paths to greatness and success
for all. They seek out new individuals to befriend, offer their
services as guides or mercenaries, and negotiate the terms
of mutually beneficial arrangements. Locathah eel riders
were the founders of the order of the eel, but other aquatic
races have since joined. Even a few land-dwelling cavaliers
along the coastline have pledged themselves to this order of
diplomats and negotiators.
Edicts: The cavalier must greet all strangers with an open
mind and show a willingness to cooperate with others. The
cavalier must never turn down the opportunity to forge
alliances or strike bargains, so long as the terms of such
agreements remain fair. The cavalier must punish those who
have reneged on bargains struck with the cavalier or others
of his order.
Challenge: Whenever an order of the eel cavalier issues a
challenge, allies of a different race than the cavalier receive
a +1 circumstance bonus on attack rolls against the target
of his challenge whenever he is threatening the target. This
bonus increases by +1 for every 4 levels the cavalier has.
Skills: An order of the eel cavalier adds Knowledge (local)
(Int) and Perception (Wis) to his list of class skills. An order
of the eel cavalier can attempt Knowledge (local) skill checks
untrained. In addition, whenever an order of the eel cavalier
uses Diplomacy to negotiate the terms of an agreement, he
receives a bonus on the check equal to half his cavalier level
(minimum +1).
Order Abilities: A cavalier belonging to the order of the
eel gains the following abilities as he increases in level.
Temporary Alliance (Ex): At 2nd level, an order of the eel
cavalier gains the ability to create a meaningful, if temporary,
alliance with another individual. As a full-round action,
the cavalier enters into an alliance with a willing creature
that has an Intelligence score of 4 or higher. The creature
thereafter receives a +1 competence bonus on attack rolls
against targets the cavalier threatens and on saving throws
against spells and effects generated by those targets. These
bonuses last for 1 hour for every 2 cavalier levels the order
of the eel cavalier has or until the cavalier creates a new
alliance with a different creature. A cavalier can have only
one alliance active at a time; if he creates a new alliance
while under the effects of an existing alliance, the existing
alliance immediately ends and the new one takes effect.
Rally Allies (Ex): At 8th level, an order of the eel cavalier
inspires diverse groups of allies against their common
enemies, bringing them together based on their similarities
while downplaying their differences. As a swift action, the
cavalier can grant a competence bonus on weapon damage
rolls to all allies within 30 feet. The bonus is equal to
the number of distinct races in the ally group, including
the cavalier’s race, up to a maximum bonus equal to the
cavalier’s Charisma modifier (minimum +1). This bonus
lasts for 1 round. The cavalier can use this ability once per
day, plus one additional time per day at 12th level and every
4 levels thereafter.
Share the Danger (Su): At 15th level, an order of the eel
cavalier can form a pact to share danger with an ally. As a
full-round action, the cavalier enters into this pact with a
willing creature that has an Intelligence score of 4 or higher.
The cavalier and his partner each gain a deflection bonus
to AC equal to the cavalier’s Charisma modifier (minimum
+1). A partner that takes damage from attacks and effects
that deal hit point damage (including from special abilities)
takes only half damage, and the other half of the damage is
dealt to the other partner in the pact. Forms of harm that
do not involve hit points, such as charm effects, ability score
damage and drain, negative levels, and death effects, are not
affected. If either partner in the pact suffers a reduction of
hit points from a lowered Constitution score, the reduction
is not split, as it is not hit point damage. This effect ends if
the cavalier makes a new pact (at which point the existing
pact immediately ends), if the partners in the pact move
more than 1,000 feet apart, or if either partner in the pact
takes a swift action to dissolve the partnership. Damage
already divided is not reassigned when the pact ends.

Going off Blood of the Sea and Skull and Shackles: Raiders of the Fever Sea would it be okay to submit a Malenti, the Sahuagin mutants that look like Sea Elves? Their stats would like this:

+2 Strength, +2 Wisdom, –2 Charisma: While sahuagin are powerful and cunning, they are repulsive creatures.

Monstrous Humanoid: Sahuagin are monstrous humanoids with the aquatic subtype.

Medium: Sahuagin are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.

Blindsense: Sahuagin have blindsense with a range of 30 feet.

Darkvision: Sahuagin have darkvision with a range of 60 feet.

Normal Speed: Sahuagin have a base speed of 30 feet.

Fast Swimmer (5 RP): Sahuagin have a swim speed of 60 feet.

Blood Frenzy: Once per day, whenever a sahuagin takes damage, it can flyy into a frenzy for 1 minute; gaining a +2 racial bonus to Constitution and Strength but a –2 penalty to AC.

Speak with Sharks (1 RP): Sahuagin can communicate telepathically with sharks to a distance of 100 feet. This communication is limited to simple concepts, such as “attack,” “come,” and “defend.”

Languages: Sahuagin begin play speaking Aquan and Common. Sahuagin with high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Aboleth, Abyssal, Aklo, Draconic, Giant, Goblin, and Infernal.

I can see the Blindsense and 60ft swim speed being a deal breaker though. If not I'd probably submit a Human or a Changeling or a Sharkkin Skinwalker.
