Akhelian Guard

No troops exemplify the Idoneth Deepkin way of life more than the Akhelian Guard. Mounted atop Fangmora Eels, they fight in a loose formation ideal for rapid assaults and sudden retreats, typifying the hit-and-run style of war common amongst the aelves of the depths. Ishlaen Guard wield helsabres, and harness the bioelectricity of the Fangmoras into their galv-shields to turn aside enemy blows with their arcing energy fields. Thus the Ishlaen are better able to shrug off missile fire, and have much greater staying power in prolonged combat than their spear-armed kin, their Fangmora Eels lashing out with their tails and ripping apart the foe with their wicked bites.
