Mermaids
A Mermaid is an aquatic creature with the torso and head of a woman but the tail of a fish. Male of this species are called Mermen. Sometimes they are referred to as Sea Sirens.
Just like people, there are good merfolk and evil merfolk. In legends, sailors would fear that they would fall under the siren's spell and crash their boats. Some stories even mention that the sailors would go so crazy that they would jump right into the ocean and drown.
Do not fear though, most of the Merfolks are helpless romantics that wish nothing else but to walk with the humans. There is even rumor that if they were to kiss a human , their scales would turn to legs.
