    Though Kelpie are often thought to be cousins to the Flowergirl, they are by no means the attack-less sex battle tanks that their land bound cousins are. Kelpie do have quite a few attacks they can utilize and within their kelp forest homes they can be a challenge to any Tamer. Kelpie are very territorial about the plants under her protection, using their advantage against water types to keep all but the most persistant or sneaky out of their kelp forests. Despite this territorial nature, Kelpie are still prized by fishermen as kelp forests are productive seafood areas. Many small scale fishermen exchange fishing rights of a Kelpie's forest for taming, and as such it is hard to find many feral Kelpie near fishing villages. Indeed, many Kelpie have their favorites, fishermen who always seem to catch the bigger better fish from her own forest. Kelpie can also sometimes be found on the fringes of a Wet Elf Queendom, usually as gardeners or servants to the Wet Elves, Wet Lasses, and Wet Queens.
    Kelpie at first seem to be blue-green skinned human females, but upon closer inspection, they are found to have gill slits running in between their ribs on their sides. Their ribs act as protection and support for their modified lung system, allowing the Kelpie to breathe on both land and underwater. A Kelpie usually has actual seaweed for hair and uses this in photosynthesis, though occasionally this 'hair' will be torn off partially or wholly from fights only to regenerate in the weeks following. Kelpie also has webbed hands and feet, to assist in swimming, but these advantages also limit what the domesticated Kelpie can wear. The need to keep their gills free almost always makes the Kelpie choose simple clothing that leaves the rib area free. Backless swimsuits and dresses that expose the rib area and tie at the neck are almost always favored over anything else. Many type of shoes are also uncomfortable, but some Kelpie can find ones they will wear. Tamed feral Kelpie often forgo wearing much more than a short skirt or loin cloth.
    Kelpie rely on photosynthesis through their skin and hair to supply their bodies with needed energy. Though they -can- eat and derive enjoyment from the tastes of foods, they do so for the essential nutrients their bodies needs. Tamers and Pet Owners are advised to give an active Kelpie multivitamin supplements and let her have at least 4 hours nude or mostly nude in the sunlight each day, or the Pokégirl will start suffering the effects of malnutrition and eventually starve to death. Tamers need not worry about their Kelpie becoming dehydrated, as they are very apt at keeping their water levels in check. A landbound Kelpie only needs roughly twice the amount of water that a normal human needs.
    While all Kelpie are territorial, Kelpie that find themselves in a Harem setting tend to view jobs as territory, and usually compartmentalize jobs when placed in an Alpha or Beta position. As such, even when not in an Alpha or Beta position, a Kelpie tends to find an area to call her own, be it finding food, cooking, or navigating and hold claim on that position. In battle, they tend to use what they have to their advantage, attacking foes at a distance and hindering them with Command Plants or her own unique attack Command Fish.
    Feral Kelpie are often found lounging on isolated beaches where they can make a quick escape into the water should they be harassed as well as keep and eye on their nearby kelp forest. When found in their kelp forest, they tend to harass offenders until they leave, though they rarely kill outright (unfortunately, most feral Kelpie do not understand that some beings can't breathe underwater). Thresholding into a Kelpie is common around fishing villages, as many times Kelpie mothers give human children over to their fishermen favorites. One of the first signs of threshold into a Kelpie is webbing growing in between the digits of the hands and feet.
