General Appearance: They are giant sea people, standing between 7-9 feet tall, and weighing on average just under a quarter ton, with some being half a ton. They have metallic scales which have different colors based on where the sun hits. They have been tainted as a whole, and are becoming more demonic over time.
Strengths:
-Due to living in the deep sea, they have muscles which are very strong, and bone dense enough to survive the deep sea pressure, along with tough scales. This gives them extraordinary physical capabilities when above water, like super-strength and speed, along with the ability to jump very high and survive long falls.
-They have been tainted through generation after generation, so the taint is now engrained within them like blood. This allows them to spread the taint through ingestion of their blood, to further the cause of their Demon masters.
Weaknesses:
-The difference between travelling by sea and by land is very jarring to the Merfolk. It puts them off balance for quite awhile, with some never getting over it, and others even become land sick, due to the steadiness of equilibrium on land messing with the change-happy equilibrium of the merfolk.
-The taint changes them overtime, slowly making them look and act more demonic. This will cause some to stay away from them for their own safety.
-They are very large, making them easy targets, and very heavy, causing issues when walking on or laying on something not able to hold the weight of these behemoths.
-They never wear armor, preferring to let their own natural scales protect them, and they only wear enough clothing for them to not be considered naked, but just barely.
-They have no free will. They serve the will of Demons, without question.
-They know little of life above the seas, and less still, since what they know is in the far past.
