M’cal
 
 
NOT HUMAN.
 
          M’cal Abreeni
is a member of an underwater race called the KRACKENI. Mermen or mermaids, basically. Go figure.
 
M’cal was enslaved by a witch - a member of the same family that kidnapped Charlie and his brothers.
The witch implied her father was the MAGI.  More than I can handle, frankly, though not as much of a surprise as it should be.  Man should have kept it zipped up.
 
M’cal’s voice can steal
souls.  Or maybe just the will to live.  Hard to say.  The only person he trusts is his new wife, KITALA BELL, who is Dela’s best friend.  
 
I consider M’cal to be very dangerous.  Extremely so. Never confront him w/o proper ear guards.  Good physical fighter, too.  
 
M’cal is descended from a race of warriors whose gifts of song protected the Krackeni during an ancient world war.  

URGENT:  Need to learn more about this war and who fought it.  Who the enemy was.  Got a bad feeling those times are coming again.

A real bad feeling.
 
Krackeni - xenophobic shape-shifters who can live above land or below, though most choose underwater.  Can 
interbreed with humans, male and female. Not all Krackeni are born with the gift of the “SOUL SONG”, and those numbers are confined to certain families that are encouraged to mix with each other to continue the line.  Some Krackeni warriors have been stationed on land in case their people are ever discovered and attacked.  Most do not like humans.
