Question #1: do you really need to remove your seal pelt to Shift
Well it depends on what kind of "Shift" you are talking about. There is a shift of the mind and a physical shift.
1) Shift of the mind: A Glamour:
The shift of the mind is a shift that most Fae can do, which is to cast a glamor upon one's self and "appear" in a different form.
2) Physical Shift:
A physical shift is more tedious and painful. To strip off the outer layer as well as to change the inner layer and shapeshift into a new form.
Other Merfolk that also shift in both ways (that I know of) are the Kelpie ( A Horse Merfolk) and the Kapa ( A Japanese Merfolk). There are probably more out there but those are the two I can think of right now.
Question #2: What are Selkie's like?
Selkies are very shy creatures. We tend to yearn for both land and sea and we are friendly by default, which also sometimes makes us very easy to trick, hence all the stories of us losing our pelts. Nevertheless, we are very loyal creatures, and we make very good homemakers. We are very creative and we all have very nice singing voices, though unlike the sirens we can't sing you into an early demise.
We also have very very very good memories, which is why I can remember about three of my past lives. I think this is how we learn from our mistakes? Personally, no matter what happened in the past, there has always been an endless pool of optimism within me, which I I think comes from the joy of being alive, and being in contact with mother earth.
I hope that has answered your questions sufficiently :3
I cannot tell, if they are or not. I've met none. I've met dragons, who acted kindly to me, one brainwashed reptile I defeated and tamed, and that's all.
Hi Shiori, I was drawn to your page by the drawing you selected - striking work! If you have more works to post on your page, I would be delighted to see them.
The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament" or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.
A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...

Hi! Sorry about the late reply, Yup I'm a selkie, what would you like to know?
- Indigo
But hadn't luck on a kind reptilian so far, you're the first actualy. And that's actualy good thing after all.
I cannot tell, if they are or not. I've met none. I've met dragons, who acted kindly to me, one brainwashed reptile I defeated and tamed, and that's all.
So you're half elven, half dragon?
It is strange, but people don't usually conenct dragns with evil reptilians.
Ahh, I like your profile pic! One of my favorite illustrations from Changeling.
