The horn on Seel's head is exceptionally hard, and its made of toughened bone. Seel lives in the frigid waters of the arctic, surviving because of its thick blubber. This hide of fat looks like its covered with snow-white fur from a distance, but when magnified, the fur is actually a very light blue, that gives it a sea-water tinge whilst swimming. Seel's streamlined, curving body helps it to effortlessly swim through the cold seas, and its flippers propel it with ease. The flippers can also pull its body onto shore, but can only support its weight for a short time.
Seel uses its horn to puncture ice so it can breathe. It becomes healthier when it rains. Its coarse hair can trap water, and air to conserve body heat.
The horn on the tip of Seel's head is used to chip away ice at the surface of the sea to create breathing holes. The small tusks can chip away at the ice too, and sometimes they engage in territorial fights where these tusks can be applied as weapons. During the day, Seel can usually be spotted in shallow seas asleep on the sea bed, however it is additionally active during the evening hours, when it hunts, and pursues prey effortlessly through the water. The colder the sea, the more active it is. When swimming, its nostrils close tightly when it swims. Seel only comes on land to give birth or socialize with others of its kind - it's exceptionally clumsy on land.
Seel loves to live in extremely cold seas, such as in the Arctic, which are often 40 degrees below 0. The frigid climate it lives in are full of ice floes. It exceptionally loves iceberg-filled oceans, where herds of Seel converge to play, and socialize.
(Unconfirmed!)
Seel is based on seal pups, bearing resemblance to a newborn Harp Seal.
Seel's name is a corruption of the sea creature seal. Its Japanese name may come from the onomatopoeia of a seal bark. It could also involve paw, the foot of many mammals.
