Underwater Wildshaping?

Pretty much what the title says, I was wondering if it would be possible to either add options for underwater oriented wildshapes or reskin/redo currently existing but rarely used ones (a la what's already been done with Animal Companions to an extent) into more underwater oriented wildshapes.

I know that in P&P at least, shenanigans like these are one of the more appealing aspects of Druidin' it up :)

But I'll be the first to state outright, I don't know how practical this is from a scripting point of view. Just thought it'd be a neat addition given that EFU has a relatively robust underwater component.

There have always been some underwater wildeshapes. Ever since efuO. Maybe they're level locked however.

There's at least one underwater wildshape available.

There's only one.  Would be nice if there was one that was decreased in power for lower level druids.

A dire frog wildshape or something of the sort that grants longer breath duration would be nice, I think. Though unlimited seems a bit much for low level druids. Then again, maybe a simple silverfin or small fish wouldn't be too much.

Something similar to the rat (squishy) but without the stealth bonuses.

Silverfin fish wildshape would be an excellent idea.

I think the current wildshapes are a reasonable baseline for actual capabilities for such a 'shape.

None of them are amazing, but they're reasonably effective.

There are underwater shapes. Some different ones also that are not readily available.

To clarify there is an eel wildshape we're happy to give underwater-focused druid concepts.

There are in fact more than one aquatic form, some that are styled for lower level druids. They are simply not available without there being a viable reason, for example based around concept or a successful app.

Gotcha, it was the preference to reserve such shapes for a "themed" Druid that wasn't immediately apparent. Glad it's out there in some form or another! :)
