it was probably an encantado then
Quote:
The term in Brazil is used for creatures who come from a paradisiacal underwater realm called the Encante (IPA: [ ĩˑˈkɐ̃tʃi]). It may refer to spirit beings or shapeshifting snakes, but most often it designates dolphins with the ability to turn into humans. Although belief in them is starting to wane, there are still plenty of South Americans who believe in their existence ardently, and claim to have seen and interacted with them, or even that they are related to them.
