Isandro Moonfoam
the Embercoral Merman
Named for the ember that burns at the heart of a coral reef, and the pale light that turns sea-foam silver at midnight.
Coralblaze — you can ignite a patch of coral with a thought, the flame burning pale and hot as forge-fire even underwater; but each use leaves a bleached scar on your own skin, and you carry the reef's pain as your own.

You keep a piece of petrified coral that still glows faintly at its core, a remnant from the first reef you burned by accident. You were not meant to hold both fire and water—they are sister elements that were never supposed to touch. But you are the place where they meet, and the sea has not yet decided whether you are a wound or a wonder. So you wander the thermal vents and the cold deeps alike, waiting for the current that will tell you which.
