Merman

A Merman is a male Fae aquatic species. Mermen are the male counterparts of Mermaids.

Description
Mermen live in seas and oceans. For one year of their existence only, mermen grow magic legs to walk the earth; known as the "Walking". When the year is up, they are left with stumps and have to return to the sea.

They can make their victims choke on water without touching them. Mermen possess a light blue fish-like tail.

Mermen can breath both water and air. They are cold-blooded creatures with skin as cold as that of a fish, even on land. They are fast and skilled swimmers and can speak different aquatic languages such as dolphin. Mermen are also extremely strong, capable of ripping off a human's legs with ease.

Mermen can only swim in saltwater. If they drink or are sprayed by tap water or freshwater, they dissolve into sea foam. It is suggested that they could reform, but pouring the foam down a drain (and therefore mixing the foam with sewage) appears to be enough to keep this from happening.

History
Darren was a Merman who didn't go back home after his Walking and began harvesting the legs of other people so he could stay on land.
