Keys: seal folk, ocean, sealfolk, hide, turn, selkies, sea, water, seals, turning, Seal, pelt, skin, selkie
Selkies are creatures resembling seals that, when on land, can shed the seal skin to reveal a human form. Selkies are said to possess an otherworldly beauty and allure, and voices as beautiful as a siren’s.
A selkie’s seal skin is unique to each individual, meaning they can only use their own seal pelt to transform back into a seal. If a selkie were to lose their seal skin, they wouldn’t be able to turn back into a seal and return to the sea, leaving them stranded on land.
