These demons were the beginning of the mermaid tales by seamen due
to the fact they can transform their monstrous selves to appear human.
Human
Form:
Eyes and hair are the blue-green of the ocean, there are no other
variations except for tone of the shade (lighter or darker).
Creation:
They are born between two parents (male and female), but the process
is not one filled with love. They do it much like fish do, the female
lays eggs and the male fertilises them when he finds them. Water
demons are created in the hundreds, but very few survive the treacherous
oceans. One or two out of every hundred survive, and they're wily,
resistant or extremely lucky beings.
Strengths:
In Human Form:
- They are
excellent swimmers
- They can
breathe underwater, for they can open their gills in their neck
even in human form and take oxygen from the water
- They love
cold temperatures and don't chill as easily as their human counterparts
In Demonic
Form:
- Fastest
swimming creature in the ocean
- They can
breathe underwater
- They can
manipulate tides and currents
- They can
salvage items out of the vast ocean depths and can resist the
pressure of water at such depths for they can take on a watery
form and blend with it (for short periods of time)
Weaknesses
In Human Form:
- Uncomfortable
in warm temperatures and tend to look for ways to cool down
- They need
to stay hydrated and always have to have a bottle of water with
them, for drinking.
In Demonic
Form:
- They cannot
leave the water because they cannot breathe air unless transformed
into human
General
Personalities:
Water Demons are mostly cool and indifferent, but if wronged, they
can be as rily as the ocean on a stormy day - uncontrollable and
destructive.
Family:
They don't recognise family units because they were alone as children
and wouldn't know who their parents are anyway.
