#looked at other siphonophore pics even though I hate deep sea pictures but I'm curious hhhhehd

Mar wanted to sting a child, left fearing for his life, lesson learnt

Also are they a colony or? I'm new here I don't quite get their lore

Mar is a portuguese man'o war which is often mistaken for a jellyfish but it is in fact a siphonophore ! A colony of thousands and thousands of small beings that work as one big entity. Since Mar is a mage they can scatter into their "true form" via unique magic. And that is why Mar adresses himself by plural first person.

Most merfolk at octavinelle are a bit confused but the deep sea and surface dwellers are used to these weirdos (Mar is from the one specie that lives on the surface of the sea unlike other kinds of siphonophores, real critter has an air pouch that makes it float)
