The Sea Creatures curse is a strange and rare one, some say it originates from the mind of a mad wizard in his writings to create an enchanted text that curses those who read it. Causing the bodies of those to disfigure and morph into abominations incomprehensible to the mind of mankind. Those affected by the Sea Creatures curse lose who they are in replacement for heightened understanding of multiversal knowledge.
