.:.The Beginning.:.<br/><br/>You live in the small town of Mukilteo, Washington, where it rains ten months out of the year and everyone knows each other. The ocean is a mere mile away, though itâ€™s too cold to go in. If your a human, you wouldnâ€™t dare step foot into that water. If your a mermaid or merman, you need that water. Here in Mukilteo, mer-people and humans mix. And when thereâ€™s a secret as big as this, thereâ€™s bound to be some walls up, and some slip-ups.<br/><br/>.:.The Story.:.<br/><br/>:~Humans~:<br/><br/>Youâ€™ve gone to school with the same people all your life. There have always been a small group of people, that barely talked to others. They would always just chat amongst themselves. They continually go into the Sound. You donâ€™t know why, itâ€™s infested with seaweed, and itâ€™s ice cold. Your parents tell you to be careful of them, because you never know why they do what they do, and you agree to stay away. Will you break you parents promises and talk to them? Will you steer clear of them? Or will you maybe even fall in love with one of them? Anythingâ€™s possible.<br/><br/>:~Mermaids/Mermans~:<br/><br/>You go to school, do homework, eat, sleep, and have problems. Youâ€™re just like any other normal human being. But thereâ€™s nothing normal about what you are. You are not a human, for sure. You must go down to the Sound every day, to let your tail out, and just swim. If not, you will begin to get really sick, and eventually, die. Youâ€™re always paranoid because the humans are beginning to catch on to you, but you must stay calm in public. If anyone asks you, you play dumb. Youâ€™re almost at your breaking point. Will you spill the beans and tell someone about your secret? Will you go on with life, like a normal human? Find out!<br/><br/>.:.PLEASE READ.:.<br/><br/><br/>1. Start off with one boy and one girl, at least. If you want to make more characters, go right ahead. Iâ€™m not stopping you. But make an even amount of boys and girls.<br/>2. Please use correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and anything else that has to do with typing. (:<br/>3. Please, donâ€™t have your charries date each other. Itâ€™s not very fun...<br/>4. If you can avoid it, donâ€™t put â€˜Meet meâ€™ in the personality, or â€˜Find outâ€™ in the history. I would like to know a bit about your characters, and Iâ€™m sure others would like to also.<br/>5. No rules on sex and anything. Just do what you want.<br/>6. Remember, the mer-people must let their tail out once a day, whether it be taking a bath, swimming in the pool, or in the Sound. Their legs must be fully submerged in water for their tail to come out. They canâ€™t just get a drop of water on them, it doesnâ€™t work like that.<br/><br/>.:.My charries.:.<br/>Name: Jynx Marie Swiftwater<br/>Nickname: Jynx.
