Shell Prince

Shell Princes are the fashionable offspring of the leaders of particular villages around Sunev Island. Shell Princes are weirdly more renowned than the leaders of the villages themselves, despite them actually having no job, and simply serve as an object of status.

Shell Statue

Shell princes have the unfortunate role of sitting on a tall shell all day and doing nothing. I say unfortunate, as they are subjected to the mindless gawking of passerbys, and nothing more. Some may take longer stares, but usually people walking past will give sea princes small glances, and then carry on their merry way.

Their job is to sit pretty upon these shells, usually holding a fancy crystal, a symbol of their village. They sit at the centre of the village, where people walking around will notice most.

Fame

It has always been considered unsual how shell princes have more fame than the actual rulers of the villages that dot the shores of Sunev Island. Nobody knows why either, but the traditions just continue for the sake of it. Even if you aren't from any of the villages and don't know any specific shell princes, you will know what a shell prince is because they are that famous. It is weird when somebody doesn't know what a shell prince is, because somehow everybody is always talking about them.

Clothing

Rose Silk Dress

Rose silk dresses are the fanciest item of clothing any of these villages have ever made, and they all go to the shell princes. You have to make sure that the fanciest clothing you have must go to the shell prince, otherwise you will be frowned upon. These dresses are very fragile, and are part of the reason why shell princes do not move all day, and are fed and watered by specialised workers.

Pearl Crown

Adorning the heads of shell princes are pearl crowns. These crowns are held together by hardened kelp, weaved between the pearls, with the largest pearl sitting right above their forehead. These pearl crowns are made by the most professional clothes designers, to avoid any stains or marks on these pearls. The shinier, the better.
