The Sea King (滄海原) was the original ruler of the Blue Sea in Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea.
Before falling into a deep slumber, he bestowed his position of ruler to his daughter Uomihime.
Appearance
The Sea King appears to be a very regal person, living up to name. His hair is pure white, bangs stylized into a messy hime cut parted to the left, and a high ponytail that reaches to an undetermined length; judging by pictures, the length exceeds the length of his body..He wears traditional jōe, with a white outer tunic and a deep blue undergarment. The ends of his outer sleeves are scaled, light blue and white in coloring. His sashinuki, or pants, are dark gray, trimmed with black. One of his most noteworthy features are the horns that protrude from either side of his head, four in number, resembling antlers in shape. On his face are blue markings, two lines beneath each eye. He appears to have clawed hands, gray in color, with sharp white claws protruding from each finger.
Personality
He is known as a very powerful being, and his influence still affects the Blue Sea, long after he descended the throne; all of the residents seem to respect the King to some degree.
Jiiya, Uomihime's fish servant, describes the Sea King as cruel, due to his influence in instigating a rivalry and war between his two daughters. His reasons and motives for his actions are currently unknown, though may be brought to light in the future.
Background
Appearances
The Sea King was mentioned in Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea, but he never made a direct appearance. Instead, he only appeared in cameos or references. The Sea King was the previous ruler of the Blue Sea, but when it came time for him to step down from his position, he chose his daughter, Uomi, as his successor, before going to sleep. During the game's events, he still remained asleep, his true status and location being unknown.
Relationships
Wadanohara Cast
Uomihime
Uomihime is The Sea King's eldest daughter. The Sea King chose Uomihime as his successor, over her sister Mikotsuhime.
Mikotsuhime
Mikotsuhime is The Sea King's younger daughter. It is unknown how he feels about her, though Mikotsu holds bitter feelings toward him for seemingly abandoning her and favoring her sister over her. While Mikotsuhime is deeply wounded and betrayed by her father for his actions, she dearly loves him, calling out for him while she suffers during her sealing by Meikai.
Meikai
The relationship these two have remain vague, as they had only been seen interacting in a banner that dates back to when Meikai was much younger and the Sea King was still the ruler of the Sea Kingdom; the artwork suggests that the two have a good bond, as they show pleasant faces to each other's presence. Meikai had also been the one who had sealed The Sea King's daughter into the Sea of Death. As of the 2017 10 21 update, Sea King is shown to have faint feelings towards a young Meikai.
Trivia
- Judging by his appearance, mainly by his horns and scales, there are some signs pointing to the idea that the Sea King could maybe be an eastern dragon, well-known for being powerful water deities, and oftentimes associated with royal status and authority.
- The Sea King's appearance is remarkably similar to Artamos, the king of the Tosatsu kingdom. From their outfits, to hairstyles, to the eye-like markings on their cheeks, they both greatly resemble each other.
- As of July 16th, 2017 on a Wednesday, there had been an update presenting a drawing of a new unnamed character who also resemble Artamos and The Sea King greatly. The connection between the three suggests that they are all rulers of a Kingdom; this is only speculation.
