Hmm. Well, off the top of my head (because I think Sandy still has my
Gloranthan Bestiary ;) ), I know of the two main types: the Cetoi
(cetacean-like, or airbreathing) including the Ouri (probably doesn't count
for me, since we met several of them in Sandy's campaign); and the Piscoi
(fishlike), including the Malasps and Ybaddau. I'm several mermen short of
a school, however.
Regarding Sandy's references to the Vadeli: Boy, you HAVE been gone awhile,
haven't you? :>
