I figured that after much confusion in the chat, and thoger with some comments here and there , that i should actully explain the difference between the mermaids i did, and the...disney/sterotypical ones
Listed features.-----
(1) The mermaids hearing is alot better than a huamns, and works just aswell on land as it does under water, though this comes as a setback aswell druing some events.-----
(2) The mer's eyes are adapted to see in darkness and they can see far aswell. Also they have secondary eye lids as protection when hunting, murky waters or just genearly when being on land.
(3) Teeth are in common both long and sharp, all off them. also depending on what fish the mermaid is in base, they can be both sharper or smoother, but they all have in common are fangs.-----
(4) They do actully have gills on their neck, wich is hiddin underneth flaps on skinn and are almost inpossible to spot while they are on land, and only ermerges as lines when in the water.-----
(5) Clan/flock tatoo. Most of them belongs to differnt groups, and use differnt kinds of markings to avoid akward moments in hunts.-----
(6)Webbed hands helping in swming, aswell as it offers the mermaids a great grip on slippery things aswell, making it easier to catch slipper prey.-----
(7) Their fish bodies all have in c general that the back's scales are extremly hard and durable, but the stoamch scales are smooth to the touch and flexible,toghter with also being soft for those that gets the chanse to rest on them.-----
(8)Human stomach, works aswell as any stomach for humans and the like, and can actully fit prey in it, though most mer's prefer to have the prey stretched out within the tail.-----
(9) the fishtails stomach, with easily houses bigger prey and is where most prey end up when being eaten. the stomach also constricts it prey when the mermaid swim, as a saftey ttrigger for the mermaid so it dosen't get hurt by struggling prey when moving about.-----
(10) Finns are like fins for most fishes, but many mer's tends to have poison in them aswell, toghter with backfins and other stuff, all dpending on wish fish they are based off.-----
(11) The tail fin is probly one of th more common weapon the mer's tends to use, or just for show, as its both for swiming fast, controll, and slapping people.-----
(12) like with many other sea creatures, things goes out here, or in aswell. though there are a slit and hole there aswell.
