Merfolk are sea-dwelling creatures who reside in the Crescent Lagoon Sanctuary. The merfolk live in different towns, though there aren't many. Their residences are grown rather than built, and they each have bioluminescent microbes to light them up.

Their homes are surrounded by magical barriers, which repel the People of the Deep. However, mortals are able to cross the boundaries in the sanctuary. Along with the barriers, one settlement was guarded by golems.

Like many other creatures, the mer have their own language. They speak Corilli, which Kendra is able to understand. This indicates that Corilli is a language of light.

Personality

Merfolk have an uneasy relationship with surface dwellers, though they respect them if they happen to have the Elixir of Dry Depths. They also respect the caretaker, and the firewalkers. Merfolk are much more approachable than the naiads, who love drowning people. However, they may let a human drown. They do this without much malice, however. Merfolk don't actively attempt to kill surface dwellers.

Merfolk love and depend on the sea. They rely on it for sustenance, believing that the ocean gives everything they need. They apparently gather with gratitude.

Appearance

Merfolk mostly resemble humans, though they have the bottoms of fish. Merfolk have the physique of Olympic swimmers, with wide shoulders and impressive builds. They have extremely long hair that can come with exotic colors. Females put accessories in their tresses. All of the merfolk have long tails with wide fins.
