ABOUT

Lacedons are an aquatic type of ghoul. Similar to ghouls in all other respects, they are distinguished by their natural ability to swim as well as they can walk. They are found only in water, usually prowling near unseen reefs and other dangerous locations where boats and ships are at risk of sinking.
