Biography Formally "Rue" ---------------- Selkie was found as a young wolf on the sea cliffs of a nearby beach, collapsed mere feet from a pod of seals. When she was approached by Éira and Crown, she struggled to even lift her head, but still blinked at them in respect, and the two wolves took her in soon after. When they arrived back at the den, the beta male, Merrow, coined her with the name "Selkie", as she was found so close by to the seals inhabiting the island. As one of the first wolves to join Emrys, she was swiftly appointed to the position of Beta Female, where she not only helped to manage resources but also guided and taught young pups out on expeditions. She is viewed as a valuable member of the pack and dedicates herself to its wellbeing and protection, and has long since made a name for herself among the packmembers.

Preferences Name Origin: Selkies are creatures from broadly Celtic legends that live on both the sea and on land. They are similar to merfolk in that they can have a half-human form, but they also have fully seal and fully human forms. Their pelt, which is like that of a seel's, grants them this power. Selkie's are very attached to their pelt, and cannot transform without it. They can feel and sense this pelt constantly, no matter where it is and what is being done to it. There are many tales of humans trying to steal these pelts to bind the selkie's to them and stop them from returning to the water, but the result is the selkie themselves being very depressed and longing for the sea again. Many legends of the selkie are cautionary and warn against harming the pelts for this reason. Not only did this make the pelts valuable, but also very well protected and coveted by the selkies themselves, many refusing to turn human out of fear of their power being stolen from under their nose.
