Merepeople
General Overview
A long time ago, there lived a beautiful young maiden. She fell in love with a man who ended up breaking her heart. Upset, the woman jumped off a cliff into a body of water. This body of water was full of source which gave the woman a second chance at life as the first mermaid. She took her revenge that next summer by singing to her ex lover's ship. It crashed into a pile of rocks and each one of those men drowned to the watery depths. Over the years, she would recruit more women and men who come to the water broken-hearted.
Mermaids have two different forms. Human and Mer. In their mer form, they have gills and flippers to help them live under water. Their hands tend to be webbed as well to move in the water quickly. Their tails come in all different sizes and colours.
Abilities
‘’’Human Form.’’’ This is their secondary form they have to give them the ability to walk on land. They can only use this form for twenty four hours before they must return in the water to repower themselves.
‘’’Siren Song.’’’ The mermaids have the ability to sing people into doing physical actions they want. The hypnos only lasts as long as the song does.
‘’’Water Manipulation.’’’ Mermaids have the minor ability to manipulate water. They must be near a body of water to manipulate it and can only manipulate small amounts.
‘’’Sirens Kiss.’’’ A mermaid has the ability to turn another broken hearted human into a mermaid. The catch? When performing this kiss, the mermaid could lose their fins or their life helping another transform.
‘’’Regeneration.’’’ When in the water, mermaids can heal quicker then what would be concerned normal. For example, finger can grow back within a day.
‘’’Immortality.’’’
