Tortle - The Tortle Package
Tortle. For details about the playable race, see the tortle entry in the races page. Tortle Guides The following tortle NPCs can be added to the list of guides available for hire in Chult. One of the tortle guides, Kwilgok, works for the merchant prince Jobal in Port Nyanzaru. The others, Eeyal and Mudgraw, are freelancers operating out of Fort Beluarian and Ahoyhoy, respectively.
