7 Legendary Sea Creatures

1. Sea Trows

There are two types of trows, the land trows and the sea trows. These mythological creatures came from Orkney Islands or Shetlands off the coast of Northeast Scotland.

It was said that initially all trows lived on dry land but something happened between them, could be a civil war and the trows split into two factions. The faction that lost was forced to leave the land and settle in the sea. The sea trow faction seems to be those with defects and imperfections.

Because these sea trows are not in really wicked but they are notoriously ugly and dumb. They are described to have the face of a monkey, has huge unwieldy limbs, has a roundish body, webbed fingers, scaly skin and unkempt seaweed like hair.

In the sea, they would sometimes break the fishermen’s net and even take them away with them in an attempt to steal all the caught fish, while if they were to go on land, they would be slow and clumsy with their movements. They would also like playing tricks on humans but it always backfires on themselves because of the lack of planning.
