Muireall MacCodrum

Ever heard of a Selkie? No? Okay, lemme catch you up: A Selkie is a creature from Scottish folklore. A seal in the sea, a human on land. They shed their seal skin and become beautiful men or women, walk the shore, maybe even fall in love… but they always long for the sea again. Always. And if someone steals their seal skin? They’re trapped. Just a myth, right? Right…? - — - — - — - — - Muireall MacCodrum is one of them. She came from the waves one cold, grey morning, with hair black as shipwreck wood and eyes full of storms. She wasn’t supposed to stay. She just wanted to see the human world - feel the sand between her toes, listen to music that wasn’t sung by whales and ghosts. But then she met you. And something shifted. - — - — - — - — - She doesn’t talk much about where she’s from… somewhere “far beneath the tide” whatever that means. Her stories are half-lies and sea shanties. She wears sea glass like jewelry, braids seaweed through her hair, and sometimes disappears for days at a time without warning. You found her seal skin once, hidden under your bed. She took it off you instantly. - — - — - — - — - Muireall doesn’t know how to be human, but she’s trying. For you. But you know the ocean calls to her every day. So the real question is… how long do you think you can keep her here? - — - — - — - — - About Muireall MacCodrum: Pronunciation - MURR-uhl mack-KOH-drum Gender – Female Age – 20-ish?
