Merrows
The merrow (also known as a mermaid or sea-maiden) uses her graceful beauty and irresistible siren song to lure sailors and fisherman to their doom for her amusement. The sight of her or the sound of her song ensures a disaster at sea, either by storm or by accident. Merrows have been spotted lounging upon sea rocks, and described as having fish tails and webbing between their fingers. In some accounts, she is unclad or wearing a foamy white gown. When a fisherman or sailor never returns home from the sea, it is sead the he "married a merrow."
