I apologize for taking a while to come up with this.
I hope my CS is ok. Let me know if I need to add or fix anything. ^^"

Appearance: Cecily has short brown hair (sometimes tangled after swimming in the ocean), and she has green eyes. Her skin is lightly tanned from being out in the sun (if she's been indoors for a while, then the tan would go away, leaving her skin to be ivory). She has an hourglass figure, and she stands at 5'4" (as a human anyways). Her lips are thin and she has freckles dotting her face. She tends to wear a barrette or a hair clip in her hair.

Name: Cecily. May be given a different name as a mermaid.

Age: 20 years old. Will become a mermaid very soon.

Tail: Classical mermaid's tail (Fish). The tail is colored a calm silver and blue (Not neon).

Specific Skill: Empathy

Bio:
Cecily doesn't really talk much about her life. Whenever someone asks, she just smiles and switches the conversation to a different topic. The fact of the matter however, is that Cecily lives a lonely life. Her family focused more on her older sister, the perfect one out of the two, while she was left alone. Don't get her wrong though, she is happy for her older sister! But...well, she guessed that her family didn't really need her. She also noticed that many of the friendships she made didn't last very long for some reason. Nevertheless, Cecily remains cheerful and optimistic in public. After all, there is no point in letting the negative emotions get to her...right?

Cecily likes to go to the beach. She finds the scenery, and the sound and the feel of the waves very soothing. For her, it was a nice sanctuary from the hectic schedule of everyday life. She is also somewhat curious about ocean life and can't help but daydream about what it would be like to live in the ocean, if it was possible.

Anything else: Sometimes absent minded and a little ditzy. She also likes to draw.

Yes, I had a birthday this weekend. I'll get my CS up soon.

I'm interested in joining as a Merman if still accepting new characters?

Name: Aquarius
Age: He’s been alive for a few centuries.
Tail: Aquarius’s tail is quite unique. It is dark green and as smooth as a dolphin’s back. It bears a metallic sheen in certain lighting and bears a deceptive appearance. It seems to be one tail that allows him to speed through the water, but it can divide into eight tentacles that he can use to propel him even quicker through the water as well as to ensnare others. Like an octopus, they have suckers on them, making them difficult to easily remove. They are extremely strong and can crush a person if not careful. They produce a toxin comparable to that of the blue-ringed octopus that can paralyze those who come in contact with it. Aquarius tends to use only an incapacitating dose so that he can apprehend foes rather than kill them.

Specific Skill:

• Rip Current – with his tentacles, Aquarius can whirl them at blender speeds to create a strong funnel-like current to disorient foes trapped within it or send them whirling away.
• Searing Touch – His trident is capable of heating up to white-hot temperatures. You do not want it touching you.
• Hardwater Toss - Aquarius can condense the water in his hand into a hard sphere and toss it at foes to knock them down or cause injury.
• Venom – His tentacles can produce a venom similar to the blue-ring Octopus that can kill a creature in lethal doses.
• Fin Blades - The fins on his forearms can extend like blades - though they extend backwards towards his elbows in a curved shape. They are a natural defense if ever he is disarmed.
• Echo - Using a similar technique as dolphins (however it is not a clicking noise), echo allows the mermen to communicate, locating each other's presence before they reach them. This allows them to identify the merman and the clan he is from or to form secret formations for ambush. It can be used as a distress signal or a rallying signal.

Bio:
Aquarius hatched from an egg into the Kingdom of the Shellborn, or nicknamed by everyone else, Conch Kingdom or Shellhead Kingdom. The mermen are born with shells on their heads that hide their faces just above their lips (and they can see through them just fine too). The shells are sturdy helms and each one bears a unique shape and design. The largest shells are the most admired and praised. Those merman born with the biggest shell are believed to be destined for leadership or to even be king.

Aquarius was one of those lucky few to have been born with not the biggest shell, but still big enough to earn the admiration of those around him. No one has ever seen the Shellborn’s face for it is taboo for one to remove their helm. If they were to remove it, they could lose it. And if a Shellborn loses his shell, then he is not only forever shamed by the kingdom but banished.

Aquarius was raised to become a guardian of the kingdom, and he has patrolled the waters around the kingdom for years battling creatures from sea monsters, to human ships attempting to troll its water, and the rare encounters of mermaids. It had been years since Aquarius had seen a mermaid for they are regarded as the enemy, although, it is unusual how the kingdom is able to breed. In the center of the kingdom is a giant conch shell where the eggs are born and incubated. It is a sacred place and none are allowed to trespass. The priests of the Conch Temple constantly accept offerings of food and treasure, and introduce the newborns to the world. No one has ever questioned the powers of Mother Conch or the mysterious practices of the priests.

The merman is very set in his ways and therefore is quite stubborn. He is dutiful and loyal to his kingdom. He lives to see that it thrives. He comes off as rather imposing and intimidating but can be quite the teddy bear if one manages to pierce his soldierly shell. He is a fierce combatant and no matter the size of the enemy, he will always be the first to charge forth.

Aquarius loves shellfish. They are his favorite food: crabs, clams, snails, shrimp, and other creatures. He also secretly admires the beauty of the mermaids. Through his short encounters with them for they are quick to flee a merman’s presence, he knew what he saw, but their appearance hadn’t matched the description of “vicious beasts who desire only to lull you into the deep where they’ll feast upon your soul” or “Sea witches who have been known to turn mermen on their own kingdom.” He still regards them as a threat either way.

Anything Else: I have Aquarius looking similar to the pic, but just read for his in-game description. He wears his shell as a helm and so his face is mostly covered up beneath his exotic shell.

Hey everyone! I've finally moved in to my new apartment so that means I'll be able to be active! Today is my birthday so I will probably not have time to post the CS but I'll try my best!

Happy Birthday! I just had one this past weekend myself. :D

I'm sorry I haven't been on guys. Was helping a friend through something. I'll be on tomorrow afternoon.

Welcome back!
>hugs

Do remember my trademarked phrase: Every rainy day waters something better!

Whoa, this looks really cool :D

@Guardian Angel Haruki She's great. Looking forward to her being a mermaid. Feel free to add her to the character tab.

@CharmingDevil We are most definitely accepting, especially mermen. I myself will be making a merman in order to make sure we have a decent number of them since I am fairly certain we will be getting more mermaids than mermen.

@Holy Soldier I like him a lot! Thank you for making him! Feel free to add him to the character tab.

@Classpet I love her tail! Thank you for joining. She can be added to the character tab as soon as you want.

~~~~~~~~

Sorry I've been MIA for a few days guys. Had to help a friend through something. I am going to make a merman character. Now for those who have joined : do you want to start right away or wait for a bit to see if anyone else joins? I know that @wolverbells and @WilsonTurner will be making their characters soon (I hope *gulp*)

@Belle Awesome thanks! I'll start working on a character!

@Belle I think we should wait a bit to see who else will join. ^_^

Okay I added my merman character. I am not good at playing males so bear with me here lol. I made him a right monster.

Okay, I'm still working on my mermaid, but she should be out soon. Personality is tricky for her, and so is her history. I was planning on writing it out but I think I'll have her forget most of it, seeing as it's long forgotten.

@Belle
I dunno if I'll actually be roleplaying anyone. I do have a long list of roleplays right now, and a couple have recently started back up after a long bout of inactivity, so... I dunno. We'll see, though!

If I make a merman, though, this would be one of those times where I'd like to use Velox again.

@WilsonTurner
Aww that makes me sad ;__; I hope you'll be able to join but I understand having too many rps on your plate.

@Belle
I said I MIGHT not be able to join.

However, there's been only a few posts recently.
As in, like, two.

So with how staggered they are, I might be able to handle many more.

...
So Velox'll probably make a comeback, to make all the ladies swoon and beat any rival merman's heads in.

@WilsonTurner
Well it'll certainly be interesting to see how he and Kayn get along then lol

Adding on to your merman collection a WIP. (I'll finish later today)

Name: Aegir
Age: He became a Merman sometime during the mid Viking Age.
Tail: Shark tail (Particularly a Great White)
Specific Skill:
Bio: (personality, history, quirks, likes, dislikes, ect)
Anything else: (for anything I might have missed)

THIS WHOLE "NO INTERNET" ORDEAL IS KILLING ME.

The AT&T technician is going to go by my apartment from 1-3 and I should be good to go! I am dying because 1. I am alone the majority of the time and 2. I can't watch Netflix or Hulu.

Don't you worry though @Belle my character will be on here before I go to sleep tonight!

(I also get my soon to be cat today so I won't be too alone)
