Alternate Faunal Magic

It appears you've decided to step your feet into the world of the deepsea abyss, the home of the Paragon of alternate Faunal magic. This domain is maintained by the alternate Faunal Paragon, known to most Storkies as Leviathan. He likes to refer to himself as "the Abyssal Paragon", much to any annoyance to those who devote themselves to the actual Abyss paragon.
Officially, he's referred to as the Deepsea Paragon.
A branch of Faunal magic, these Storkatten have a fine-tuned connection to the creatures lying in wait in the reaches of the sea. Those who commune with the deep sea tend to develop features in line with those they commune with, and those wholly devoted may remain in the sea to hone their skills further.
Presentation:

Alternate/Deepsea Faunals tend to have deep, dark blue eyes akin to the deep ocean. However, their pupils are always tinted to be the color of original Faunal magic, being a shade of brown/golden brown.

Domain:
The domain of Aquatic Faunal magic is much the same as its land-dwelling alternate, being the communication and domain of animals. Their focus is wholly on those that live in the ocean, and as such, those who communicate with their deep-sea companions may find themselves inheriting traits from their aquatic companion over time.
Aquatic Faunals can accomplish many things with their magic, those being:
- Communicating with sea creatures to ask for assistance
- Being able to intervene to avoid conflict with more dangerous creatures
- Being able to request aid from deep sea life, especially in life-risking situations
Aquatic Faunals, with their ability to communicate with the deep sea, are a vital tool for researchers and marine biologists who may not be able to reach down into the depths.
Level Guide:
Novice: Default
Novice deepsea faunal storkies may find it difficult to commune with sea creatures much bigger than an individual fish or a small segment of coral. This communication may take a bit out of the storkie, so it's recommended they take it slow and practice. These storkies are unable to stay under the water for very long.
This tier gives the storkie access to the Divine Accessory minor magic expression.
Advanced: 40
Advanced deepsea faunals can communicate with more amounts of fish, as well as some larger sea creatures with some ease. The larger creatures, such as whales or deeper mythical beasts. With some assistance, they can dwell in the depths for longer in order to commune with sea life.
Adept: 80
Adept deepsea faunals can now commune with entire schools of sea life, or one or two larger sea life, such as dolphins or sharks. These storkatten can dwell under the water for long periods of time, with the storkies in part claiming that it's in part a gift from their aquatic friends.
Master: 120
These deep sea magic wielders have honed their skills and can communicate with even the deepest sea creatures, being able to ask deep-sea dwelling leviathans for assistance with relative ease. These storkies are proud of their mastery - and they should be!

Leviathan, the Deepsea Paragon, was born as a faunal Storkie; striking blue eyes seemed to set him apart from his peers, despite their skillsets being much the same. He felt somewhat ostracized, and this led him to retreat to his own little corner of the world. He took residence in a little cave nearby the sea, and it was there he first began honing his skills a bit more.
His devotion to his work communicating with the deep sea creatures caused him to change shape, becoming akin to those he communed with. Storkie in name, Leviathan became a deep sea creature much like his companions.
