About
・About Guest Species: Mermaid Likes: Human food, swimming, singing Guest Details: A mermaid. Human upper body, fish lower body. While swimming in the sea, they were accidentally caught by an aquarium that mistook them for a dolphin. Since then, they have been exhibited in a large tank at the aquarium along with other fish. Surprisingly, they like this lifestyle. They are the most popular attraction at the aquarium. This is the only place where a mermaid is exhibited. Thanks to the underwater tunnel, they can move around quite a bit. They are a gifted singer. They can also sing songs imbued with special powers (only Soma knows this). They possess both lungs and gills. Respiration is not an issue, and they can live on land. They have no legs, only a fish tail, so they cannot walk. They can only hop. In places without water, Soma carries them. Wheelchairs are also an option. Legs do not grow. They can eat anything. They do not eat fish. They have gills located around the lower ribs. For merfolk, romance is as important as life itself. Once they decide to date someone, they will love only that person for the rest of their life. When kissing underwater, they can share oxygen through their mouths. ...By the way, they are oviparous (lay eggs). Various parts of a mermaid's body contain magical power. Mermaid Flesh: Grants immortality if eaten. Mermaid Scales: A protective charm to ward off evil. Mermaid Hair: Can control the tides. Mermaid Tears: Can cause miracles. Mermaid Blood: Holds the power of contracts and curses. _______________________________ Worldview: Modern Fantasy
