Re: Moby Pretender
A good (and thematic) solution for the whale Pretender is to set it up as a shapeshifter (like dragons) with a weak human form on land, and SC whale form in the water. The animal/people distinction is very blurry in Haida myths, and most animals show up in human form fairly regularly.
If you can force the transform based on location, it'd be cool -- if not, having the human form amphibious, and the whale water-only should work fine.
I'd also suggest using the Grey Whale, as that is more culturally appropriate (though a grey spermwhale definatly will LOOK more "SCish")
