Lore
Native to Kelpie's Bay, the Salt Kelpie is the bane of shipping merchants. More savage than sharks and more mischievous than dolphins, this beast is known to kick holes in the hulls of wooden ships. They give birth to thousands of pups at a time, and these spawn are often kept as cute pets of school children. But Kelpies grow fast, and within no time, the cuteness wears off and they are too big to flush down the toilet.
