Tough, fibrous, and heavy, rawhide is the untreated skin of animals large and small. In its raw form, hide is resistant to tearing and can be used for rough coverings, makeshift shelters, or primitive armour. However, it is bulky, prone to decay, and needs curing or tanning to be truly useful, becoming Leather or Fur. Hunters and survivalists often collect hide from game animals and great beasts alike, knowing it is as valuable for trade as it is for crafting sturdy goods in the wild. However, most animal hide in the market is sourced from livestock raised across Oceanyka's ranches and stations.

Seaskin

Thin skin from a maritime creature, often called "seaskin" in Oceanyka. If it comes from maritime mammals, it's typically rubbery and soft, whereas fish skin is typically slippery and scaly. Seaskin is very water-resistant but otherwise makes for a terrible leather, known as Seahide. Better to just fry it and make it a snack.
