Gwennant is the daughter of a pair of selkies, and she has a thick Scottish burr. She's often described as quite spirited, with a love for theatre. And she can never stay steady on her own two feet.

## Personality

Gwennant's a bit of a confusing person to figure out. Normally described as energetic and determined, she's also known to be quiet and reserved. But, really, she's nervous about being herself, relying more on aliases and characters, rather than showing how she really acts. When she's finally comfortable around a person, she'll show her more humorous side.
Normally, she's a very patient sort of girl, but everyone has their snapping point. She's protective about people and things she's close too, being one of the few things that set her off.
She's the kind of person who holds a grudge, and the type to seek revenge if the situation calls for it. As far as intelligence goes, she's smart, but lacks common sense.

When it comes to romance, Gwennant tends too fall for someone easily, which doesn't spell out success for her. But she deals with it. She'll often fancy one manster one week, find out he's unavailable, then move on with only a little bit of disappointment on her part.

## Physical Description

Gwennant is rather short and curvy in stature, with grey, freckled skin. Her hair is dark brown-black, reaches her waist, and extremely curly. Her hands are also webbed, and she has a number of skin markings along with her freckles that resemble a harbour seal's.
Her facial features are to be described as round and sweet, from the shape of her chin to her eyes, which are pale, ice blue. She has a "folded" upper lip, a round nose, and slightly-longer-than-average canine teeth.

## Classical Monster

Selkies (also known as Seal Wives) are a type of legend that started in the Shetland and Orkney islands. They're usually described as enchanting folk who can turn into seals using seal pelts. If their pelt is stolen, they're at the person's command (this element is common in most Seal Wife stories). And if they interact with a human but return to seal form, they cannot interact with them again for seven years.

They're usually written coming to shore at times of festivals: Equinoxes, solstices, and All Hallows Eve. But male selkies come to shore when a woman dissatisfied with her marriage, perhaps her husband was lost at sea, sheds seven tears into the ocean. These relationships usually never last, as the selkie will return to the water eventually.

Selkies are depicted as attractive people with a sort of enchanting aura about them, both male and female, usually with dark hair and pale eyes.

In one story, selkies are given the traits of not being able to stay on land past midnight, or else they die, and getting weaker the farther from water they get. These traits are not attributed to Gwennant, however.

## Relationships

### Family

Gwennant lives with her mother, father, and siblings. It is undetermined how many siblings she has, but it is implied that she does have a few. However, they are all at least a year apart, due to harbour seals having on average one pup per season.

### Friends

Being a somewhat social girl, Gwennant has a reasonable circle of friends. Though, only a few she trusts enough.

Marguerite Cygne. Being both a form of animal wife (Gwennant, a selkie. Marguerite a swan maiden), they both understand the hardships of keeping their pelts hidden.

Espella Miratium. Her and Espella met through Aaron Northwind. They're not the closest, but they do trust eachother.

Aaron Northwind, a wind spirit. They met when Gwennant ran into him ice skating. At one point, she had a crush on him.

She's on neutral ground with Fawn Deerfield. They understand eachother and can talk, but they aren't completely best friends.

### Enemies

Anybody who makes this list is usually someone who has tried to take Gwennant's seal skin, or is generally someone she just can't stand. The De Niles make this list.

She has a sort of rivalry with Lachlann Colpach, a Kelpie she knows from bach in Scotland who has now transferred to Monster High. They both agitate eachother on a daily basis and try to avoid eachother at all costs. Of course, it doesn't help that they're both esteemed actors and often get roles as love interests.

### Pet

A sea bird named Hallows, named after the day Gwennant found her injured on the shore. Hallows has stuck with her since.

### Romance

As said, Gwennant tends to fall for someone a bit too hard and a bit too fast.

She briefly had a crush on Aaron Northwind, but kindly stepped out of the way when she found Espella felt the same for him.

At one point, she found Espella's older brother, Mirall, rather handsome. Of course, he's mad and in college, so nothing came of that.

It's implied that she fancied Charles Messina. But this came about long after he'd started dating Maibe, and she moved on.

Who she's dating now is undetermined. There are rumours spreading that she's going out with Tirrell Erinye, but Gwennant gave no comment when asked about it.Other rumours state that she's developing feelings for Lachlann, and that he was part of the reason her family moved from the Shetland Islands. When asked about this, she just started blurting out gibberish and stormed away.

Her make up involves a series of white dots around her eyes, and her hair is highlighted with white and pulled into a series of hair ties (think Jasmine's from Disney's Aladdin). Her shoes are high heels adorned with shells (including a mimic scallop shell as the toe) and the straps that cross over her ankles are ruffles, and she wears a pair of transluscent stockings.
