did these today instead of finishing cleaning up the rambling i have and want to put on a03 lol
Ben - Lydia
Born Seafey vs a Human cursed into Seawitch by Seafey magic.
Seafey have scaly skin that's generally colored green-teal-cyan-blue. Always on the nose, collar bone, along spine and allover their lower back. Of course tail are fully scaly. They have spiny fin ears. heavily vary in length by region.
Gills are present at the bottom of the rib cage, generally Seafey have 3 on both sides, so 6 gill openings. They need to be very hydrated on land to prevent breathing issues, but generally have no problems breathing on land.
Ben's a bit more of a deep-diver + open ocean regional family, so his sclera are gray/dark and he has amazing dark vision. He is very sensitive to sudden bright light. He's fine if he slowly acclimates to light but if he suddenly gets hit with morning light in a dark room it temporarily totally blinds him.
Seawitch have the scaly skin in similar usual spots. although instead of a fishy tail, they always have Cephalopod arms that connect to them from their lower backs.
Lydia has 6 Cephalopod arms and 2 Cephalopod tentacles. The tentacles are very strong and sturdy. They can hold her weight up, and are more resistant to regular blades than her actual skin.
1 of her Cephalopod arms is a very short stump due to it getting sliced off in a sword fight.
Bonus- basically all fey species have nose and collarbone texture unique to their region.
