       The sight of mermaids being spotted in the oceans or basking near the beaches of Eoden is not unheard of. Yet many people do not know of the differences between this sea-dwelling creature and it's many races. Two primary kinds of merfolk are the Cetaceans & the more dangerous Akheilos variety.
       The Cetaceans have tails that end similarly to Dolphins, Whales, etc. And like them, Cetaceans also require air to breath and are often the ones seen basking on beaches & rocks along the shorelines. The Akhelios type of merfolk are more scaly in appearance and have tails that end similarly to Sharks and other predatory fish. Akheilos Merfolk are also much more aggressive than their Cetacean cousins and are responsible for many ill conceptions of Merfolk in people's minds.
       Mele'lani is among the Cetacean Merfolk, her aquatic half resembling that of a orca. She was often spotted along the white sandy beaches of White Cliff, near the small town of Whiteridge. Often heard singing to herself, before being spotted by travelers in her mermaid form, though when many tried approaching her, Mele'lani darted back into the tide, vanishing into the waves.
       Yet, those whom caught a long enough glimpse of the elusive creature, cited that while she was a beautiful sea maiden, he appearance was also mired in scars and wounds. This has cause some to speculate on what exactly happened to her and if those events are what have caused her to be so aloof around travelers? There is one story that says Mele'lani had a run-in with the infamous pirate named Captain Jordan Smith Elliott, was this encounter the reason why she seems afraid of those whom walk upon land?
A profile for my merfolk character, Mele'lani. No preview image to accompany the profile.

Fables of Eoden, Mele'lani & Captain Jordan Smith Elliott all belong to me.
