Merfolk are one of the races of Medius. They are an aquatic race who live solely in water.[2] As they have yet to properly appear in Slightly Damned, little is known about them.
Physical Features[]
Based on artwork from within and outside the comic, Merfolk appear to have fur, hair and webbed tail-fins. Their front fins have five short digits. Their head is very human-like (though lacking a nose), with white hair that appears dyed similarly to Angels'. Their face, along with most of their upper body, is covered in short white fur, although darker Merfolk exist.[3] Their frontal fins are covered with large colored stripe patterns, while past their abdomen they have a lighter color that turns darker as it reaches the tail-fin. While blue is the most commonly seen color so far, Merfolk might come in other colors that match the four basic elements of Magic.[1] Males are called Mermen, females are called Mermaids.
Behavior[]
Unlike Fairies, Merfolk aren't as secretive; but because they are known to remain in large water sources, such as the ocean, they tend to only interact with those who live on the shore. Their existence may not be as well known to people living far away from the seas and living in disclosed areas. Otherwise they are known to be great allies with the Khamega.
Powers and Abilities[]
It is unknown as to what kind of Magic they are capable of using (or how the different magic elements can be used in underwater environments), and to what extent when compared to the other races. It is also unknown whether they have their own language like Fairies.
Waterbreathing: Merfolk live in the water and are known to be great swimmers. However, as they're not found anywhere inland, it is possible they cannot breathe air or move on land.
