Welstrom (Ger. wels; catfish, strom; stream)

Welstrom are catfish-like wesen that only become aggressive when provoked. When woged they have smooth scale-less skin and a snout. Gills are present on the side of the head and an array of whiskers are visible at the end of the snout. On top of the head is a large fin and a venomous spine that can be moved back and forth. This spine is used to stab and inject venom into the Welstrom's enemy. Welstrom love to be near water and so often get jobs like fishermen or even lifeguards.
