An ancient race of the deep earth, the Sibbarine are thought descended from aquatic elves. There are two castes of Sibbarine. The low caste that is held to have developed independently of aquatic elves is six to seven feet tall, possessing webbed feet, hands, and ears, chalk-white skin with a scaly texture, long black hair, and great eyes. The high caste consists of seven to eight foot tall persons with normal-sized eyes, but sharing the other physical traits of the low caste. The high caste also cut their black hair closely and forbid the low caste to cut theirs. They have gills on their lower chest and back. For this reason they are sometimes called gillharrow.

The Sibbarines worship the demonic gold known as Shalb who they believe is the son of the entity known as Xhalb'ithût, a being which the Ithrabbi also hold in great reverence as the mother of their god, Prince Hersp. Thus a connection in mythical ancestry exists between the two humanlike races.
