Ken Kelly's "Princess of the Walrus" intrigues me. Is she a selkie who bred with the seals' tusked cousins? Or maybe she's from a related race wiped out in a horrific war with the selkies? Either way, she's all babe & fits into more than one of kind of fantasy.

Unlike many other water spirits who lure people to their deaths, Selkies are typically always benevolent and viewed as good luck by sailors. There are also both male and female selkies.

Hey, thanks for the art share! The one on the right is my Mermay art from last year, and the one on the left is from this year (it's a selkie mum and her pup, and selkies are mermaids right because they're half-seal half-human and live in the sea)

Grey seals or selkies can also turn back into human form. Seal hunters on the Monach Islands heard this singing:
Woe to the land, woe to the land!
Eating people for your food;
See the chief of all our nation
Boiled to death on a blazing fire.

Selkies are among our favourite shapeshifters- beautiful seals in water and beautiful people on land but there are dark, abusive undertones to their sealskins being stolen by fishermen.

Selkies are beings capable of changing from seal to human form by shedding their skin. They are found in folktales from the Northern Isles of Scotland.
Female selkies are often trapped into relationships with humans by someone stealing & hiding their sealskin.
