STORY
Tales of mermaids luring sailors, and naiads ruining ships. All just myths, right? Just made up stories. Or are they? Mermaids, naiads. They're real. Pirates also lurk the waters, plundering and stealing. However, they're not always as evil and drunk as you'd think. Navy commanders and sailors fight against the pirates, and most don't believe in mermaids or naiads. The mermaids are usually always busy trying to drown sailors and pirates, the naiads are busy hijacking and messing with ships, the sailors & the King's Navy are busy with trying to catch pirates, and the pirates are busy fighting each other and stealing. What will happen to you?
This takes place in the 1700s, the Caribbean. The Europeans, the Spanish, the French, and the Portuguese have taken over different islands at this time. However, this is set where you are English.

INFO
<Species/ Types>
Mermaids; Mermaids are usually girls. They can be mermen, however. Mermaids lure sailors and pirates into the waters, then usually drown their victims. A mermaid's song has hypnotic powers. They can also get a bit flirty. A mermaid can breath under water and has a mermaid tail instead of legs. Every mermaid/ merman has an air chamber underwater. It's under the ocean floor, and has air in for their captives. But they usually don't take captives. Mermen like to fight a lot, and they don't sing.
Naiads; Naiads are usually boys, but they can also be girls. Naiads can breath underwater for up to three hours straight. After three hours, they have to surface for air. Naiads are mischievous and Luke to mess with ships. They have pointed ears and slightly pointed teeth. Other than that, they look like humans.
Sailors & The King's Navy; Sailors and the King's Navy are honest seafaring men (possibly also women, but not in the navy. Sorry). They fight against the pirates and for the king.
Pirates; Sailors that plunder, fight, and break the law. They are all mostly men, though a few women are pirates. Though having a women on board was considered bad luck (no offense). They attack each other a lot, too.
