So I am going to try once again to make a mermaid rp, but this time I am going to try something a little different.
This time there are both mermaids and mermen. Romance? If you can find time for it during war. That's right : the merpeople are at war. The mermaids vs the mermen. The mermaids want to protect their territory (a series of small islands and reefs) and the mermen want it for their own. There are also humans living on these islands, which makes things even more difficult. Things have gotten drastic for both sides as both have lost quite a few numbers. In desperation the mermaids do something that has long been forbidden : turning select humans into merpeople. The mermen, after seeing this, have jumped on the bandwagon and are recruiting humans as well.
The females will have certain sea life and ocean birds on their side and some magic, while the males will have powerful weapons and incredible strength on theirs, plus some animals that they have tamed. Females have the ability to go on land while males do not. Males have the power of Alpha : coercing those of weak will to do their bidding. Females have the power of Song : calming even the most savage beast with their voices. And it's said if a merman and a mermaid fall in love, their offspring would be similar to a demi-god, able to control the powers of both. One such creature existed before and accumulated so much power both sides came together to destroy it. Afterwards it was decided by a counsel of both mermaids and mermen that the two sides should be separated, to keep something like this from happening again. For nearly a thousand years this agreement has held... until now...
