Darkwater (OOC)

It would make my character seem like she doesn't have enough flaws.

I'm not done with my cast. Also I don't think Sirens would fit well, because seafolkre forbidden to come in contact with humans.

That doesn't make sense. In that logic, none of the species would fit well. There was nothing said about how a siren had or will come into contact with humans, the other species are just as much capable.

What does make sense would be that a siren isn't just a particular type of mermaid, but one that revels in singing, where every other mermaid is just capable of doing so. Sirens being the ones who are either particularly good at it or regularly partake in it.

I suppose then, but there won't be much "human luring" if there are sirens.

I should have mentioned, Atlas has Shark Guards that will kill seafolkre that stray too close to the surface. My bad.

Damn. I wanted to have my character sun on rocks like real seals do. I'll rewrite her again

No need. Eventually there will indeed be a turning point in the story about this and a plot line considering this law. You of course, can still have her/him sun on rocks, I'll just be against the law and she'll e attacked if she get caught.

But with that in mind, I suppose luring humans could be a possibility then. As long as they lure the humans for a plausible reason, whatever it may be, and nt just killing them to be killing them.

I need to get to work on my Lionfish hybrid cs XP

Can't wait,

Maybe mermaids kill humans because their red blood makes such wonderful hair dye.

You gave me ideas concerning RL, thank you.

I'm just about finished then. I kinda bsed the appearance and I'm gonna do it again with the personality

It probably wouldn't affect Merfolk, as if there's sirens involved they could just as easily affect your character.

@True: strictly sea animals.

Groans. Making this was peaceful.

Character Sheet


General Information

Name: Alibe
Alias: Selkie, if you are trying to call her something insulting.
Gender: Female
Age: Seventeen

Species: Seal Merperson. Spotted seal to to be specific.

Length: Just about seven feet long. Seal merpeople are some of the smallest species.
Weight: 180 pounds

Eye Color: Black
Hair Color: Silver with streaks and speckles of white and black.

Appearance: Like almost all merpeople, the top half of Alibe is human, or at least humanoid, and her bottom half, beginning at the waist, is of her animal counterpart. Her seal tail, while allowing her to swim rather swiftly, appears to be rather thick and not very sleek, as seal tails are regardless. The 'top' side of the tail is a light gray while the 'under' side of it is white. The entire thing is covered with speckles of gray, black, white and silver. Pat the end of her tail are two flippers, which are a darker gray then the rest of her.

The speckled pattern, as well as the gray and white coloration, continues up into Alibe's human portion. Her backside is the same light gray and her belly up to her shoulders is white. On these two colored portions of her body the speckles also appear, without any sort of pattern or placement. The rest of her skin is pale in complexion. Her neck and face are also home to some of these speckles, but they are smaller and fainter then the ones on her tail. Her hands, slightly webbed, end in, barely pointed, black nails.

Her neck and face is most likely her most human feature. She looks all around slim and smooth with the same colored freckles around her facial features. She has shiny, black eyes, and a thick nose with black skin around it making it seem larger. Above her lips and under her nose are several long and white whiskers. Her hair is very, very, long, ending at the base of her tail. It has the same coloration as the rest of her body. But she rarely lets it out of a series of intricate braids, and loops. It's too much of a pain to swim around with all this hair tangling her up.

I hate writing appearances.

Personality: A huge mix of personality makes up Alibe, most of which I am going to keep to myself and allow it all to come through in the ic. But just think of it this way, Alibe is normally very sweet and gentle as well as playful. She often can be found spending her time simply allowing herself to be pushed though the waves in the most carefree way. But this doesn't mean that Alibe is totally innocent, she is actually a bit of a rule breaker. Risking her life and honor in order to go up to the surface to sun on the rocks.

Skills: Alibe works as a sort of gatherer for various sea witches. As the dog of the sea she is rather good at finding things. She isn't sure why. Her is also a rather good fisherman, eating almost anything smaller then her while avoiding things that are larger. Alibe is also rather sneaky for someone as wide as herself, happily spending time on the rocks above the surface.

Strengths: Alibe is a smooth swimmer, being quiet and not disturbing the water enough to be detected by others nearby. She is also very brave, which can help overcome her physical weaknesses. She is able to hold herself in scary situations, finding the best way to keep herself alive and away from the big hitters.

Weaknesses: Alibe's small stature and lack of any sort of natural attack or defense is a pretty huge weakness. She physical strength is very low, not having very sharp teeth or fins or anything. She also isn't the fastest swimmer.

Accepted!

Accepted, but don't go crazy with the magic on the second one. I'm trying not to have too much magic involved.

EDIT: I suppose us can start the IC now. I don't have all of my characters in yet, but I suppose I can introduce them later.
