description: 'Nereids are aquatic fey with deep ties to water. They share some similarities
|
||
with naiads, but they are not guardians and do not bind themselves to a specific
|
||
body of water. Although they are primarily aquatic creatures, their unique ability
|
||
to imbue their vitality into a supernatural shawl allows them to travel on land
|
||
as well. A nereid must be careful when manifesting a shawl, however, as their life
|
||
essence is bound to it, so it can be stolen or destroyed to threaten the nereid.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Nereids prefer to exist in isolation. Left to their own devices, they avoid combat,
|
||
but when forced to fight, their ability to transform the natural waters in their
|
||
flesh into poison serves them as well as any weapon.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Often, ignorant sailors lump all water-dwelling fey into a single category of “aquatic
|
||
tempters,” regardless of the fey''s type or gender, using these creatures'' names
|
||
interchangeably to represent the concept of a beautiful figure who exists to lure
|
||
mortals to a drowning death. Whereas naiads have more patience and often seek to
|
||
educate the ignorant regarding the harm that stereotypes can cause, nereids and
|
||
rusalkas have little patience for such methods. Rusalkas are the primary source
|
||
for the legends of fey preying upon sailors, and nereids loathe them for that, as
|
||
they prefer to live apart from humanity and enjoy the beauty of the natural world
|
||
in peace.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
When a nereid learns of a rusalka''s increased activity, it often seeks out the
|
||
rusalka to route them—not so much out of an urge to protect humanoids (in whom nereids
|
||
traditionally have little interest), but to prevent the rusalka from inadvertently
|
||
riling up violent responses from humanoids who can''t be bothered to note the difference
|
||
between a murderous fey and one who just wants to be left alone.
