SKILLS/TALENTS/POWERS
Water Manipulation Marina, like all Merfolk, is capable of manipulating water in a wide variety of fearsome ways, though Marina herself has only learned how to create small waves, faster currents, splashing a tiny wave of water and a defensive shield of rapidly swirling water. Merfolk have been using this power for centuries to sink ships and devour human prey, but Marina does not wish to be like that.
Accelerated swimming speed Marina can swim as fast, if not slightly faster, than a Black Marlin, which typically can swim at 82 mph (132 kph). This is typical of most Merfolk. Some can harness magic to propel them even faster through the water.
Fin SpeakLike all Merfolk, Marina has the ability to telepathically communicate with all aquatic creatures incapable of verbal speech.
Creature of the Deep
~Underwater Senses - Merpeople possess senses attuned to life underwater. They have adaptable eyesight, enabling them to adapt and see in the dark and light, for coping with limited light in aquatic environments. Their hearing is particularly sharp, like dolphins and whales. Some lineages exhibit enhanced olfactory senses and can sense spilled blood in the water miles away.
~Cold Resistance - Merpeople can resist the chilling cold of arctic waters and abyssal depths.
~Pressure Resistance - Merpeople can withstand the crushing pressures of deep water, enabling them to safely thrive deep, deep below the waves in places no human could survive{/Indent]fsfs
Alluring voice Marina's voice is beautiful as the sweetest birdsong. Mortals can help but feel relaxed and soothed when hearing Merfolk sing. Marina however never attempted to develop this ability as other more aggressively carnivorous Merfolk have as she does not wish to be a cruel or violent creature.
Pearl tears When they cry, merpeople tears instantly harden into precious pearls.
Weaving Marina finds it enjoyable to weave colorful seaweed into bags and other useful items. She's rather good at it.
Treasure knowledge In her time of swimming off to avoid her family, Marina has discovered the location of several shipwrecks packed with human valuables. She commits all of her 'hideouts' to memory.

BACKGROUND
Marina was born the fifth eldest child of King Neptune... out of eight children in total... it was safe to say in the presence of her much more aggressive and dominant mannered siblings, that Marina didn't get a whole lot of their parent's attentions. Neglected was more like it, she was just the odd child whom refused to drown or devour a human and wouldn't use her aquatic powers to destroy ships...
For the longest time, Marina just lived in the spot she'd always believed was her place in life, just out of the way and doing her own thing making jewelry from pearls and beautiful shells to sell in the art square of the market place, just living her own life and simply not trying to draw any royal court attention to herself.
Unfortunately... life does not always go to plan... especially when you happen to be royalty and ruthless social climbing nobles look at you as a push over easy way into the royal family...
This wad of whale cum was none other than Nautilus Oceanmist, the son of a Duke whom happened to hold high favor with Marina's father... and he's been watching Marina for some time now, just waiting for her to turn 200 years old, the age when merfolk maidens came of age to wed...
Her father came to her the morning of her 200th birthday and did not ask her, but announced to her that in two weeks time, she would wed Nautilus Oceanmist.
Knowing full well what kind of merman Nautilus was, Marina knew she couldn't possibly marry him, she'd spend the rest of eternity miserable and wind up just as cold and cruel as her siblings... she had to think of something!
Though to to honest... Marina knew the one and only thing she could do, the one and only escape from this marriage from hell... which would require her to flee the sea and abandon her family...
The thought of doing this did hurt her, but if she was going to continue with the whole being honest with herself thing... what love or kindness had her parents and siblings ever shown to her? They always treated her like the odd child and an embarrassment at court... perhaps if she did leave, she might actually really get the chance to live her life as she wanted to and do whatever she desired without being judged or forbidden from doing...
Yes... the only choice she had was to run away, she would run away to the surface world, the one place where the royal court would never follow her, they would never view her as being THAT valuable, especially when Marina's father still had plenty of other available daughters. It was the perfect escape.
So despite being terrified and slightly heartbroken, Marina waited until her family was sound asleep before she gathered what valuable she could carry from the royal vault and she fled the sea…
They might be slightly miffed when they realized she pilfered some treasure from the royal vault… but she knows she didn't take enough to merit hunting her down, they had bigger problems than her and an armful of treasure.
