Ewald Deepseacall
the Wildspume Merman
Named for the old law of storms—that the deepest call is answered by lightning, and that the caller becomes the call.
Power
Stormtongue — you can shape a gale with a single word, but each word costs a piece of your voice, and the wind keeps them.

You remember the fisherman's widow saying, 'The sea does not call; it takes.' She was wrong. It does call — you heard it from the deep, and you answered. Now you are the one who takes: boats, breath, the names of drowned men. You keep them in the storm-light, and you wait for the next voice that answers.
