Selkies are a very sweet and tranquil species, who usually live alongside merfolk and are given the same rights as them. They look a lot like seals, but seem to be able to fully breathe underwater, as well as being sentient and sapient. Their fur colors are also more varied. They’re born from Crystal Coral, a special type of coral which seems to sparkle like an iridiscent pearl. They usually wear tiaras with a seaweed wig attached, to mimic the flow and look of merfolk hair (which is kept long most of the time), also encrusted with colored pearls. They also wear a small matching band on their tail, sometimes matching armbands as well. Those with a matching necklace and tiara combo, adorned with pearls, are Guardian Selkies - special selkies who maintain and protect the different Ocean Gates around the worlds. They’re usually assigned to different seas, but in some exceptions a single Selkie oversees an entire world’s waters. They all answer to their queen, Omnia, who resides in Infimare and acts as the guardian and giver of Sirenix. Unlike Pixies, they have different sexes and genders, but generally look the same aside from fur color. Also unlike Pixies, not all of them have magic. Magicless Guardian Selkies are granted a power from their pearls, which varies as it’s linked to the type of magic their Gates have.

Now for our Selkies, clockwise from the top!

Nissa (he/him) - the Guardian Selkie of the entirety of Magixian Central Ocean, surrounding the island of Magix, with the Gates under his watch residing in the Doloris Cape near Cloud Tower and in the Golden Cave in Lake Roccaluce. Levelheaded and confident, he got along well with Daphne during her Sirenix quest, and is overjoyed to see her after the whole Domino deal. He’s a selkie with magic, and seems to have powers over shadows.

Illiris (she/her) - the Guardian Selkie of the Resplendent Ocean on Solenei, covering Solaria, Callisto and Quarzis, with the Gate being near the Azure Valley. Outgoing and flashy, she’s very similar to Stella in personality and seems to be why they get along so well, even if it slightly creeps the Winx out. She has magic, especifically over pearls and their properties.

Serena (she/her) - the Guardian Selkie of the Prideful Ocean on Solenei, surrounding Domino and Eraklyon, with the Gate near the Yellow Reef. She’s very shy and reserved, and is unnerved to visit Domino’s seas even if they’re no longer subject to the same curse the land was. She likes Bloom’s confidence and sticks to her for protection. Has no magic powers of her own, but her pearls grant her control over ice.

Lithia (she/her) - the Guardian Selkie of the Tempest Ocean of Daumme, surrounding Zenith, Romulea and Hoggar, with the Gate near the sunken Databridge Castle. She’s a brave yet reckless Selkie who prides herself in her battle prowess and gladly shows off her scars. She seems curious about Tecna’s more analytical approach and wants to see if she can implement something like that. Has no magic of her own, but her pearls give her the power of wind.

Phylla (they/them) - the Guardian Selkie of the North Pacific Ocean, but they’re technically the only active Selkie on Earth so she oversees the entire planet. Their Gate is near Gardenia. They’re the oldest of the Guardian Selkies alongside Nissa, and is generally more grumpy yet caring. They have magic over heat.

Sonna (he/him) - the Guardian Selkie of the Harmonic Ocean, surrounding Melody, Nacre, Ohm and Oppositus, with the Gate residing near the Ruby Reef. He’s a quiet and patient person, and seems to enjoy the calmness of his seas a lot, even if he finds the name of his Ocean ironic given the history of the countries in it. He likes Musa’s singing and music, and is intrigued by her different styles. Has no magic of his own, with his pearls granting him powers over earth.

Desiryee (she/her) - the Guardian Selkie of the Emerald Ocean on Antochea, surrounding Lynphea, Dolona and Espero, with the Gate being near the Fiorella Sea. She’s kind of selfish and stuck-up despite her cutesy, kind demeanor, but cares a lot about the plants she lives alongside with and helps with their growth a lot. She likes Flora’s earnestness and her care for nature and likes hanging out with her for that reason. She has magic over plants, fitting her area.
