Name: Sedna.

Inspiration: Sedna (goddess from Inuit mythology) and sirens/mermaids.

Environment: Oceans, rivers, lakes.

Appearance: Sednas are humanoid Grimm similar to the Apathy or Geist, with two glowing eyes and long but wiry arms. They have no legs, their torsos instead terminating in fish-like tails, and have been observed with feathery wings that they keep folded against their backs.

Armourings: Obligatory faceplate, elbow spikes, plates on tail and spikes on wings.

Aesthetics: Red markings under the eyes, appearing to be 'crying blood', as well as running down the arms and chest like veins.

Behaviour: Sednas are smart and vindictive Grimm, perching on rocks and luring sailors to their doom like the Sirens of old. They are also said to have very long memories.

Attacks: Biting, clawing.

Powers: Sednas can emit a pleasant sound that is irresistable to most humans, luring their ships to a watery doom so the Sednas can finish them off. They can also manipulate this sound to instil other emotions, such as anger, fear or sadness.

Weaknesses: Very fragile and horrible at hand-to-hand combat.

Notes: The story of the actual Inuit goddess, Sedna, is rather obscure and very graphic, but the long and short of it is that Sedna drowned at sea and became a vengeful goddess who drowned anyone lost in her waters. I imagine that seafaring men would have a story that Sednas are the ghosts of people who have drowned, rising to seek their revenge.
