Water Nymphs

Water nymphs are magical creatures who preside over bodies of freshwater.

Description
Water nymphs are the guardians of ponds, rivers and lakes. Water nymphs look after their homes. They care for the fish that share their home, arrange lilypads and keep their waters pristine. Many nymphs have a nasty habit of enchanting princes and drowning them.

Characteristics
Water nymphs resemble human women in shape and size but possess an incredible beauty far greater than a mortal and hair of any colour found in rivers and lakes. Some nymphs never wear clothes.

Nature
Water nymphs guard their waters fiercely and are very angry if their homes are disturbed. Nymphs take pride in their homes and some have favourite fish or keep frogs out of their ponds so they can keep them clean. Water nymphs love the water and can spend hours underwater. Some nymphs are snobby or even hostile and dangerous.

Abilities
Water nymphs can breathe and live underwater and swim faster than any human. Like many magical creatures, nymphs are born with the ability to understand all animals.

Nymphs have the magical ability to manipulate water. They can make water rise into the air and with just one touch, a nymph can make pipes burst and water flow out. Particularly powerful nymphs can muffle the roar of a waterfall, calm stormy lakes and keep houses and castles from drowning. Water nymphs can use their great beauty to enchant men and turn them into lovesick fools.

The Frog Princess
As frogs, Emma and Eadric come across a pond nymph. Eadric is isntantly enchanted by her beauty and he attempts to flirt with her but the nymph looks at him with contempt and disappears.
