lets how weak the selkies are. guardians of the ocean gates who can't even stop simple oil from entering the realm they're supposed to protect? and all of them got one shot by tritannus with ease
Selkies are seal people. They can cast off their skins and take human form. Once a fisherman stole a selkie’s skin so she couldn’t turn back into a seal again. That night she came crying and moaning round his cottage all wet begging him to give back her skin. But he wouldn’t. 1/2
My favorite concept drawings from the Abhartach level in Otto, including banshees, vulture bone boi, and selkies!

#FairyTaleTuesday Mermaids, selkies, sirens & water nymphs appear in myths, legends & fairy tales the world over. Portrayed equally as cold & predatory, luring mortals to their death, or kind & helpful creatures.

Tales of selkies (shapeshifting seal women in Scottish lore) often romanticize bride kidnapping. In "The Selkie Bride," a man steals a selkie's sealskin. She begs him to return it, but he forces her to stay on land & marry him. Somehow she comes to love him. #FairyTaleTuesday

Made a new icon cause I've been wanting to and I just like selkies and seals. This is just the full thing and without the nonbinary flag background.
"Legends of selkies are tragically romantic; the selkie falls in love with a human, but after a time the selkie becomes restless and returns to sea.
Sometimes the humans will not know that their lovers are selkies and they will suddenly disappear, forever."

@GabriellaBuba There r loads I I take pleasure in. My intire story is about a society of cryptids, creatures & mythological being.
Chorts, Huldra, Adlets, trolls, kustaka, pooka, selkies. There r too many I love to list them all.
But a good old feral werewolf is a classic i keep returning to.
Mermay day 19. Selkies, meaning ‘seal folk’ are creatures from scottish mythology. They can chance form from human to seal and back by shedding their skin. #mermay2020 @habiproductions
@Kiraofthewind1 This is Lirrin, the Ocean Guardian. Technically she's a giant sea serpent, but she takes a more approachable form to interact with mortals. Unless she's planning to eat your ship. The selkies (and most seafarers) worship her as the goddess of the ocean, luck, and chance.
Today is one of my favourite mythical creatures, the Selkie, for #MythicMay @charamath My mum told me stories of Selkies when I was young and my obsession was sealed. If you haven't watched Song of the Sea, do it, and Shirely Hughes book on Selkies is lovely.
@sissons_heather My Comic ‘On The Rocks’ was based on Irish Selkies from the Gaelic myths of Scotland, Wales, Ireland and some parts of England.
