Tidus

Basic Information
Name: Tidus
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Merman
Orientation: Gay
Fandom They’re From: Final Fantasy
Canon or OC: Canon
Role: Research Subject
Appearance:

Human Form:

Shown in the image. As shown in the image, Tidus is a blonde haired boy with blue eyes that stands at around 5’9” in terms of height. He often wears the clothing shown in the images above although he does take on a slightly different appearance in his merfolk form.
Merfolk Form: His merfolk form is almost the same as his human form with the exception of the cerulean colored tail that glows in the dark that replaces the lower body of a human. Also, he doesn’t wear a shirt in his merfolk form

Personality, Powers, Abilities and Weapons
Personality: Tidus is rather energetic to the point where he can be described as “annoyingly energetic” by some. Aside from his boundless energy, he is rather friendly and has a somewhat childish demeanor. He is also rather upbeat unless facing a serious situation.
Powers:
•Immortality - Due to being a merman, Tidus cannot age past 17 years of age and for some odd reason, is also immune to dying via poison and disease. However, this ability doesn’t protect him from getting injured.
•Shapeshifting - From human form to merfolk form. Tidus is able to switch between a fully clothed human form meant for land and his merfolk form which is meant for the water. However, merfolk are unable to shift from one form to the other should they end up being wounded.
• Spellcasting (Magic) - Basically Magic. It has various weaknesses depending on the kind of magic and different elements are effective against one another. For example, Fire magic is rather effective on ice magic but it is beaten by Water Magic. Similarly, light magic and dark magic are weak to one another. Also, not casting a spell correctly can lead to some disastrous consequences.
• The ability to breathe underwater (PASSIVE ABILITY)
•Weapon Summoning - The user is able to summon weapons from a pocket dimension that acts as a storage space for them. Currently, the only weapon type that Tidus is able to summon from that are swords.
Abilities:
•Tsunami - The user summons a massive wave of water to attack their foes with. This ability is most often used by sea dragons and Leviathan herself although Tidus is able to use it as well.
•Energy Rain: This attack requires for Tidus to jump off of an enemy or an object into the air where he then charges mystical energy into his sword before throwing down said energy to explode on his foes (ACTIVE ABILITY) (Only usable in human form)
• Blitz Ace - Probably his most notable ability, this ability also requires the use of mobility since Tidus slices at his enemy eight times before using the hilt of his sword to leap into the air before he kicks a Blitzball into his target which… explodes on impact. This ability isn’t powerful enough to destroy a mountain but it can cause a lot of damage. (ACTIVE ABILITY) (Usable in both forms although in his merfolk form, he swims upwards instead of using the hilt of his sword to leap into the air and smacks the exploding blitzball into his opponent by using his tail.)
Weapons:
•A sword called the Brotherhood

Bartz Klauser

Basic Information
Name: Bartz Klauser
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Species: Merfolk
Orientation: Bisexual (Male Lean)
Fandom They’re From: Final Fantasy
Canon or OC: Canon
Role: Research Subject
Appearance:
Human Form:

In his human form, Bartz appears to be around 18 years old with brown hair, two differently colored eyes (Brown and Grey. His left eye is brown while his right eye is a striking grey), and stands at about 5’7”. While this does make him slightly shorter than Tidus, he also tends to wear an outfit that appears to come straight out of a fantasy game.
Merfolk Form: His merfolk form is almost the same as his human appearance but with an emerald colored fish tail that has some white speckles on it. This fish tail takes the place of a human’s lower body. He also wears a shirt that is similar to the shirt that he wears in his human form except the shirt he wears in his merfolk form can more accurately be described as a mix between a tank top and a crop top.

Personality, Powers, Abilities and Weapons
Personality: While he’s normally an easygoing and friendly individual, Bartz is so much more than just a cheerful young man all the time. While he does enjoy being around other people, there are times where he would prefer to be left alone such as when he starts becoming overwhelmed by his emotions. At this point, he will excuse himself from any social interactions in a polite manner while he tries to process his emotions. He is also overly trusting which tends to make him more susceptible to being captured by an enemy. This is the reason why those who are on the same team as him receive a recommendation to keep an eye on him so that he won’t end up being captured. Aside from being overly trusting, he has trouble verbalizing difficult emotions and has a fear of heights (Acrophobia). He is also rather innocent and doesn’t understand some concepts of the world.

In addition, there are things that he likes and dislikes. He likes the color green and dislikes the color black while at the same time, liking sweet and sour food while disliking spicy food. He has a slight dislike of overly bitter flavors, though. He also dislikes Gilgamesh although he is fond of being around chocobos.
Powers:
•Immortality - Due to being a merman, Bartz cannot age past 18 years of age and for some odd reason, is also immune to dying via poison and disease. However, this ability doesn’t protect him from getting injured.
•Shapeshifting - From human form to merfolk form. Bartz is able to switch between a fully clothed human form meant for land and his merfolk form which is meant for the water. However, merfolk are unable to shift from one form to the other should they end up being wounded.

Firion

Basic Information
Name: Firion
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Species: Merfolk
Orientation: Gay
Fandom They’re From: Final Fantasy
Canon or OC: Canon
Role: Research Subject
Appearance:
Human Form:
Firion appears to be around 18 years old with long, silvery white hair and pale brown eyes. He is around 6’0” in terms of height and wears an outfit that appears to be straight out of a fantasy game.
Merfolk Form: In his merfolk form, Firion has a red and white fish tail instead the lower body of a human that resembles the tail of a koi fish in terms of color. He also wears a shirt that looks like the shirt that he wears in his human form although it is a little shorter to the point where the midriff is actually exposed (and he hates this but sadly, can’t get a different shirt so he just puts up with it).

Personality, Powers, Abilities and Weapons
Personality: While he normally acts rather cold at first, Firion tends to be rather friendly and loyal to those he trusts. This is because he sees them as trustworthy however, it’s also very possible for someone to lose his trust if he sees them doing something that he considers to be immoral (He considers murder, cannibalism, and the sort immoral). He is also strong willed and has a strong sense of justice although this ends up with people seeing him as uptight. In terms of negative traits, he is hot-blooded which can land him in trouble if he isn’t careful. Another somewhat negative trait he has is how he will not admit his true feelings towards someone. This tends to make it somewhat difficult to communicate with him should he attempt to hide the fact that he has been harmed. He is also stubborn and can be a little overprotective of those he loves at times ESPECIALLY when it comes to Bartz.
Powers:
•Immortality - Due to being a merman, Firion cannot age past 18 years of age and for some odd reason, is also immune to dying via poison and disease. However, this ability doesn’t protect him from getting injured.
•Shapeshifting - From human form to merfolk form. Firion is able to switch between a fully clothed human form meant for land and his merfolk form which is meant for the water. However, merfolk are unable to shift from one form to the other should they end up being wounded.
• Spellcasting (Magic) - Basically Magic. It has various weaknesses depending on the kind of magic and different elements are effective against one another. For example, Fire magic is rather effective on ice magic but it is beaten by Water Magic. Similarly, light magic and dark magic are weak to one another. Also, not casting a spell correctly can lead to some disastrous consequences.
• The ability to breathe underwater (PASSIVE ABILITY)
•Weapon Summoning - The user is able to summon weapons from a pocket dimension that acts as a storage space for them.
Abilities:
•Multi Weapon Mastery
Weapons: Firion is capable of using sword, spears, axes, wands, bows, daggers, and can even fight barehanded.

Other Info:
•He has to put up with Tidus’s nonsense far too often.
•For some reason, he doesn’t use his weapon summoning ability all that often.

34

Name -
Given: #34: Emerie Merriam
Prefered: Emerie, Merriam
Accepted Nickname/s: Emerie
Numer Designation: 34(called this by most in the lab, however will use her name while writing her POV and 34 when writing my other characters' POVs)
Gender -
Female
Pronouns: She/her
Age -
15
Species -
Mermaid
Classification(Realm Wise) -
Ocean
Powers -
Unknown. She doesn’t appear to have any, but water still responds to her, even though she denies using any abilities.
Personality -
Emerie has zero chill. She’s chaotic and annoying, sometimes becoming abusive and abrasive. The only real way to get her to chill is to sedate her if you can get close enough to do so without getting injured by her antics, as she has a relative fear of needles and will harm anybody who comes at her with one. As well as her chaotic nature, everything is a game to Emerie- and I mean everything
Looks -
When not in the water, Emerie appears as a regular human girl with tan skin that never seems to burn, even when exposed to flames. She has straight long brown hair that sometimes has streaks of blonde depending on how long it’s been since she’s been in the water. On land, she wears olive green shorts and a sky blue T-shirt, but never shoes or socks. Well, she wears one sock, on her right foot. This sock covers tiny cuts that are scattered around her ankle and lower leg area. When she’s in water, or water has gotten on her, she bears a sleek golden-scaled mermaid tail. When in her mermaid form, she wears a rather childish ruffled pink bathing suit top, even though it's clear she doesn't mind how childish the top is.
Weapon/s Of Choice -
Emerie’s only weapon is being an absolute pain in the ass.(pardon the profanity but it’s accurate) And a knife she stole from the scientists that nobody except her knows about, but that’s for when she finally decides to escape if she chooses to.
Strengths -
Emerie’s annoying personality means that she can get what she wants. The memories of her brother mean that she will not let her spirit be crushed by any of the experiments, and she treats them like games; this means that she often defeats the objective of researchers before they can even identify how while having them play right into her hands.
Weaknesses -
If somebody can get close enough to tie her ankles together, she cannot form her tail. This poses a danger to her when in water. However, if her wrists are tied together, she is completely unaffected.
Each time that Emerie almost escapes, security questions her and she willingly shares the exact way she escaped. This means that, due to her inability to defeat the truth serum used while interrogating her, escape becomes closer and closer to being impossible.

Ivan Merriam. Male merman. Younger brother.
Place of Dwelling -
Under the sea before she was sold off by her parents. Now in a small cell at the lab.
Realm/s of Residency -
Human
Assorted Details -
Emerie often will find ways around the experiment the researchers/scientists are trying to run, be it through being an uncooperative brat or using the materials given to her to actually complete the objective they gave her in a way they probably wouldn't expect. Her favorite game is the maze that slowly submersed itself, surprisingly. You'll meet that later if we get there. >:}
Short Backstory -
Emerie was sold by her parents when she was 5. Not much is known about her past life except that she had a brother named Ivan Merriam. She's one of the longest surviving merfolk at the facility, having been there for ten straight years and attempting escape multiple times. Her first few years at the facility were spent alone, being studied behind bars. But after a while, a few scientists decided to give her a change in environment and allow her to engage more with others on occasion. The positive changes in her behavior this brought eventually got her to her current situation; she currently is housed in a forever guarded enclosure with a small pool in the corner where she can entertain herself. The guard's face is familiar to her, but she is unable to place it due to her memory being wiped upon arrival, even though there was a malfunction and she didn't lose everything. Now she just plays games with researchers, providing inaccurate results and sometimes even sabotaging experiments. They used to punish her, but they've given up. The only reason she hasn't been terminated is because the results she provides are too curious to give up and show a level of maturity rising then declining again depending on her mood.

Ivan Merriam

Name -
Given: Ivan Merriam
Prefered: Ivan
Accepted Nickname/s: Ivan
Gender -
Male
Pronouns: he/him
Age -
14
Species -
Merman
Classification(Realm Wise) -
Ocean
Powers -
Unknown. Ivan
Personality -
Ivan is mostly void of emotion, having been a guard and it really not helping that he lost his sister when he was 4, and has no recollection of his past life, except for his sister and his abusive parents.
Looks -
Ivan is your typical human male with tan skin, similar to his sister’s. He has short brown hair and perfect ocean blue eyes. He lost his merman form as he neglected to use it after losing his older sister.
Weapon/s Of Choice -
Ivan carries a tazer, a small pistol that fires blanks, a pistol that fires actual bullets, and a few other weapons.
Strengths -
Ivan is extremely stoic, meaning that he is essentially immune to a subject’s complaints. This provides to his lack of empathy.
Weaknesses -
Despite being stoic, he immediately responds to praise or reprimands- breaking character sometimes. If annoyed enough, he will eventually divulge information that some might find useless but may or may not be important… depending.

Short Backstory -
As a child, he was sheltered by his sister from his parents’ abusive nature, but often was forced to watch Emerie be punished for things he had done. He never ran, as he knew what would happen if he did. Even though the two were only a year apart in age, his sister behaved like an adult around him- if only to protect him, as he found out later. When he was 4, his parents sold Emerie and turned their abuse on him. He finally escaped the abuse when he was 7, after three years of neglect, etc. He ended up in the hands of the very same facility his sister had been sold to years ago. He was recruited as a guard when he gave his name, and explained his situation. That’s where he’s been for the last 7 years, fully unaware that Subject #34 was actually Emerie Merriam… his sister.
