Hydromel
MERMAIDS, SIRENS, ETC.
Hydromel records vary by realm, but every account agrees on one point: power changes the body, the mind, or the debt a person carries. Culture matters as much as ability, and no lineage exists outside consequence.
Sub-species
Common Hydromel
The most frequently documented mermaids, sirens, etc. lineage, shaped by local custom and inherited limits.
Hidden Information
Restricted note: this lineage is more adaptable than the public record admits. The cost usually appears after prolonged use of its gifts.
Elder Hydromel
An older strain with stronger ties to the laws and hungers that first produced the species.
Hidden Information
Restricted note: elder bloodlines recognize obligations that predate the current realms. Several still answer to unnamed patrons.
