A typical graknork is more than forty feet long, though even larger specimens have been sighted in the coldest regions of the world. \n**Great Blue Eye.** While the graknork’s raw physical prowess is justifiably feared, the aspect of its appearance that causes the greatest consternation is its great, freezing blue eye.

They are wary of intelligent reptilian creatures, such as lizardfolk and naga, who regularly prey on their people. Otterfolk pass this animosity on to future generations through tales of heroic otterfolk overcoming ferocious snakes and mighty alligators.

If a group seems capable of protecting itself, the otterfolk reason they don’t have to defend the group in addition to guiding it.

Otterfolk greatly increase their fees for groups apparently incapable of fighting off potential swamp hazards.

Otterfolk regard the animals warmly and become sad when favored pets die. They rarely allow their otters to engage in combat. They regularly hold contests where otter owners show off their training prowess by directing their otters in feats of strength, cunning, and dexterity. These contests never involve pitting the otters against each other in combat. The rare few otterfolk who choose to become wizards take otters as familiars.
