Extra Bio: Unbeknownst to all but her closest companion, Chauncy, Nerine is a sea spirit disguised as a human woman.
She left the ocean for the sole purpose of reproduction. Due to hostilities between hers and humankind, the population of her people is dangerously low.
Since human females don’t typically impregnate men, no one suspected she was the sire of numerous pregnancies in Chauncy’s home port. However, she was accused of witchcraft after she seduced a church official’s daughter. Chauncy, a fisherman who befriended her after bearing her young, convinced her to leave with him on a pirate ship before she lost her temper and destroyed half the town.

Chauncy stood near the edge of the starboard deck, staring out over the open sea. He was an average looking man, not at all attractive in a traditional sense. Though a bit self-conscious about his weight, he couldn't complain. He rather enjoyed the attention his belly attracted. He was known amongst the crew for almost always being pregnant, though no one had ever seen him go into labor. One day he'd be heavy with quintuplets, the next day they were gone. And then he'd be newly knocked up again a few days later. Chauncy preferred that his secrets stay secrets. The truth would be a bit difficult to explain anyway. A fisherman of many years on the French coast, he had one day been accosted and seduced by a mysterious woman who appeared in his boat. He'd later discovered he was pregnant, even though he had not slept with any man. When the pregnancy progressed to full term, he found himself unable to give birth. For many days he was plagued with painful contractions, but his offspring wouldn’t budge. On the fourth day, the mysterious woman reappeared in his beachside home. She wordlessly helped him down into the sea, where he was finally able to bear the children. Chauncy never got to see what his young looked like, for upon birth they immediately took the form of shark pups and swam away.

The man glanced down at his swollen belly, rubbing it absentmindedly. This was his third pregnancy by his sea spirit companion, and he hoped this time at least one of his little ones would stay. He wished desperately to raise his children like a proper father, but even a pirate can’t argue with the nature of the sea.
