Nereus Startide
the Moonspray Merman
Named for the first breath of foam that marks the moon's rise over the water, and the sea-god's laughter in the crest of a wave.
Power
Moonspindle — you can spin moonlit foam into a thread that briefly mends a broken thing, but the thread always unravels at the next high tide, and mending a living thing comes with a terrible itch.

People say you're half-mad and twice as slippery, that the moon lent you its silver for a joke and the sea never asked for it back. You don't correct them. The truth is you were hatched from a bubble of foam that caught a moonbeam just right, and you've been laughing ever since, even when the tide tries to take you back.
