Brennan Seapearl
the Sorrowbard Merman
Named for the seapearl formed from a teardrop of grief, and the sorrow that clings to the name Brennan.
Power
Dirge of the Deep — you sing a song that pulls the memories of the drowned to the surface, letting you speak with them for a moment, but each verse leaves you with a fragment of their pain that you cannot shake.
- Familiar
- a blind hagfish named Gloom
- Tide
- the Sorrow-Ebb
You were mending a net on a Tuesday when a song you did not recognize came from your own throat, and the sea answered it with a wave that tasted of salt and memory. Now you sing only at twilight, when the boundary between living and drowned grows thin, and the hagfish Gloom coils around your wrist like a living ring.
