Mellaniphe

Mellaniphe is a nereid who inhabited an island in the Churning Depths, outside of the Obviation.
Originally hailing from the Faerie realm of Larkspur, Mellaniphe fell victim to the manipulations of a mortal man who discovered a pool that connected to the Feywild. Believing him to be in love with her, she was persuaded to reveal to him the true names of both herself and her twin sister Nesymine, which he used to take Mellaniphe's power and trap her upon an island in the Material Plane. This mortal man would go on to become the feared King of Crows, while Mellaniphe's sister was eventually driven mad from trying in vain to bring her back from Mundane.
Many years later when the pirate ship Cutlass was blown far off course during a storm, Grom, Ari, and Aberchak were sent ashore to search of fresh water. The three of them encountered Mellaniphe in a hallowed grotto in the center of the isle, who said she would allow them to take some of the water from the island if they killed a beast that was growing beneath her island and threatened to destroy her. Upon completion of the task she granted them the water they sought and a blessing that allowed them to breathe underwater.
