Editing Siren: The Drowning (section)

==The Celestial Ocean==

The Celestial Ocean is a reflection of the future in which the Deluge has occured, with multiple separate oceans showing various ways the Deluge might occur. Sirens can return to the Celestial Ocean through any body of water, and it can serve as a home base and source of resources, if a somewhat dangerous one. Which Water a Siren sees during their first Surfacing determines their racial splat.

===Discordia===

Discordia represents the possibility that war and human conflict will eventually destroy the world. It's a bloody and brutal place, and the Sirens who Surface there tend to be grouchy bastards who like to solve problems with their fists and have survived some sort of conflict themselves.

===Freshwater===

Go look up 'Part Of Your World' from ''The Little Mermaid'' and you'll have a good idea of how this Water works. Freshwater Sirens are optimists even in the face of the apocalypse, and the closest to humanity of all. Their Celestial Ocean represents the possibility that technology gone wrong will end the world and is full of the ruins of human civilization.

===Gardenia===

This Ocean represents the possibility that a natural disaster will end the world and is a viciously wild place that suffers from earthquakes. Sirens from this Water tend to be much more comfortable with nature than human civilization.

===Polaria===

Polaria represents the possibility that Earth will freeze over. Naturally, it's really damn cold. Polarian Sirens, also known as Selkies, tend to look like marine mammals and are a grim lot who tend to do the dirty work for their fellows.

===Tropicana===

The all-too-real possibility that global warming is going to get out of hand. Tropicana sirens burn with passion, figuratively and literally, much like their Ocean. 

===Vaporia===

All the other oceans represent problems that we can see and know exist. But because of that, we can ''stop'' them. It's just as likely that the apocalypse will come in some way nobody thought of, destroying humanity by the dint of catching us by surprise. That is the possibility of the Deluge that Vaporia represents, and it appears as a world stripped of its atmosphere. Vaporian Sirens tend to be drifters, showing up, solving problems, and leaving, just as mysterious as their home Water.
