Pictured the damp eyes. The salt-crusted hair. The longing. Maybe you’ve even had that one player at your table who thinks playing a Selkie is just a free pass to play a tragic victim, forever staring at the horizon. We’ve all been there.
They take in the world’s sorrow and the bitterness of every "goodbye," wrap it in a sealskin, and dive into the crushing depths of the soul.

Forever the kids that look through the candy store window, being without belonging. The reason the land feels so sturdy is that something is always drifting away into the mist...

Pictured the damp eyes. The salt-crusted hair. The longing. Maybe you’ve even had that one player at your table who thinks playing a Selkie is just a free pass to play a tragic victim, forever staring at the horizon. We’ve all been there.
They take in the world’s sorrow and the bitterness of every "goodbye," wrap it in a sealskin, and dive into the crushing depths of the soul. They’re reminders that Glamour comes from loss as much as discovery, that the ache of leaving can fuel the Dreaming just as much as any joyous arrival. Ignore them, and you lose half the story.
Forever the kids that look through the candy store window, being without belonging. The reason the land feels so sturdy is that something is always drifting away into the mist. I hope this little book helps you see the depth behind the silence—and maybe respect them enough to stop asking, “why would anyone play one?”
Inside, you will find the usual format for NPCs divided by seeming, with some Selkie-specific additions, like their Seal Skin Origin.
