Marlin Reefbrook
the Coralbearer Merman
Named for the brook that once ran sweet over the reef, and the marlin-shaped scar on your palm from the day you claimed the deep.
Power
You can slow the growth of coral to a standstill or speed it to a fever pitch, but each use flakes a layer of skin from your hands, and you have only so many layers.

Every dusk, you walk the rim of the Great Cap and count the dead staghorns. You are the last of the Coral Line, and the reef knows it — it fractures where you step, not from weight but from grief. You could let the ocean take it back, but you were never good at letting go.
