Appearance

Small, rounded octopus form with gently curling arms that fold inward rather than outward. Finished in soft seafoam greens with subtle speckling, like light filtering through shallow water.

Glossy bowl interior tucked neatly inside — well suited for salt, rings, or things that need keeping but not displaying.

Personality notes

Mirellin is gentle, cautious, and deeply private.
She does not seek attention and is unsettled by being perceived, yet she is quietly loyal to her chosen space.
Among the Brineborn, she is known as a soft keeper — trusted with small, important things and never asked to explain herself.
