Jonas Amberdrift
the Gildedfrond Merman
Jonas from the old word for dove; Amberdrift for the golden clouds of spores that drift from the kelp at sundown.
Power
Kelpweave — you can coax kelp strands to braid themselves into snares that hold a creature's attention, but each use leaves a slow tangle in your own thoughts.

- the Gilded Slow Tide
What people say about you when you are not there is that you are the sea's half-written letter — you surface only when the light is long, and they cannot tell if you are coming or going. You carry a piece of amber that hums when the tide turns, and you have learned that the kelp forest remembers every promise you have ever made to it.
