Selkies

Ability Score Increase +2 Cha
Size Medium
Speed 30 ft, 40 ft. swim speed

Darkvision

Because of your kind's inclination for the sea, they have adapted to the inky darkness that the vast depths hold. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.  

Sealskin

As a Selkie, you are born with a sealskin that you have clung to for your entire life. This skin is your connection to the ocean, and your people's way of life, as it allows you to shapeshift into your seal form. This skin takes on the appearance of a piece of clothing of your choice, or even just a pelt you carry. You know the cantrip Selkie Shapeshift that you may only cast if you are in possession of your sealskin. Upon character creation, you must select the species of pinniped your character will shapeshift into.
