Carmilla Witherheim
the Saltwater Countess
Named for the salt-choked well in the courtyard of Witherheim, where every drop tastes of tears and rust.
Power
You command the brine in blood and sea — you can draw the water from a body with a touch, leaving only salt-crusted grief behind. But each use leaves your own mouth parched for a week.

You remember the morning the well turned brackish. Your father said it was a bad omen. He was wrong — it was a gift. You dipped your hand in and felt every drowned thing that had ever fallen into it: a child's shoe, a silver locket, a heart that still beat.
