Hadar Foamdepths
the Kelveiled Merman
Named for the glory of starlight on the surface foam, and the cold dark where the kelp roots anchor in the abyss.
Power
Kelpweave — you can command kelp to tighten or part at will, but each use costs a memory of the surface world, and you have fewer left every year.

"You are the one they call the tide-swept," the mermaid said, handing you a strand of bullwhip kelp. You took it, and then you took her place in the current, and the foam closed over your head. The kelp forest accepted you as it accepts driftwood — slowly, silently, and with a patience you did not know you had. Now you tend the beds, and the scars on your arms are the map of every rope you have ignored.
