Sahuagin are an predominately underwater species resembling atropomorphic sharks and are found in Baldur's Gate II , Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition. They can breathe in or out of water. Most worship Sekolah, the Shark God.
These creatures attempt to engage in missile combat as a priority, but will use their spear when forced to close quarters combat. They start off firing the Paralytic Bolt, then the Bolt of Biting, and finally mundane Bolt ammunition.
The particular creatures on this page are unskilled (non proficient) with their supplied and equipped weaponry, possibly a developer oversite. They are found in The Planar Sphere within the Marine room. These Sahuagin are very much weaker than others found in the saga. They are of no real threat or consequence in battle unless they get a lucky shot and a missed saving throw with a Paralytic bolt and stun their adversary.

Mod content[]
This section is about unofficial content that is only available via fan-made mods.
The Sword Coast Stratagems mod assigns a new AI script to the creature to improve tactical combat behavior. Appropriate weapon proficiencies are also placed so the creature receives some bonuses with its equipped weaponry choices, thus improving THAC0 and damage output. Hit dice levels are also raised, although hit points remain the same as the original.
