Photo by Mat Kungler Atelier Sirens often are called the Vampires of the Sea, as a need for blood is one mythology of them. Myths say that lack of consuming blood makes these creatures increasingly weaker and often makes them morph into hideous creatures if malnourished long enough. This mythology also states that Sirenism, as it is called, is actually a disease or curse, similar to Lycanthropy or Vampirism. So what is the draw to such a creature? Either way, you have the opportunity to play a lovely creature. Beautiful, seductive, and living beneath the waves. A form that is both recognizable and alien. A demeanor that is both our own and something entirely new. But most of all, it is a uniqueness that you can craft into exactly what you want. As the ship drifted next to the rocks and ground to a halt upon them, the beautiful woman turned and looked at the Captain. She extended her hands, beckoning him to come closer. Captain Jarnos, without thinking, climbed over the side and onto the rocks where the lovely woman was perched, still singing her lovely song. He came close to her extended arms, and her hands went to the sides of his stubbled face. She leaned in and spoke into his ear, a soft, melodic voice barely above a whisper.
