Description Kelpie: A kelpieโ€™s true form is a horrid sight to behold: a mixture of horse and humanoid qualities, but ragged and withered. Its long face ends in jagged teeth, and each of its emaciated limbs ends in a backwards hoof. When beneath the water, they are known to transform their hind legs into a tail in order to out maneuver its drowning prey. Their skin is typically a grey or seaweed-green, pulled taught over their skeletons to give them almost an undead visage.

It's surprising how little attention the things get in media, seeing as they are probably the most popular/well known drowning mythological entities and are just creepy as hell all on their own.ย
