First documented by Dr. Blackwood's research team in the misty depths of a lesser-known Highland loch, this variant of the traditional kelpie exhibits unusual bioluminescent properties and an apparent connection to ancient runic sites. The creature's appearances coincide with significant breakthroughs in Nessie-related discoveries, suggesting a deeper connection between Scotland's aquatic cryptids.

The Kelpie Knightmare possesses the ability to shift between equine and serpentine forms, leaving traces of ghostly blue bioluminescence in its wake. Its presence causes electromagnetic disturbances that affect both scientific equipment and the flight patterns of thrown discs. The creature seems drawn to ancient stone circles and can manipulate water currents to create temporary pathways through seemingly impassable terrain.

Acts as a sentinel and harbinger, appearing at crucial moments to either aid or hinder those seeking knowledge of Nessie's true nature. Its actions suggest it serves as a gatekeeper to deeper mysteries within the lochs.
