Species information[( Megalodon Merfolk are one of the oldest surviving merfolk lineages, predating most modern pods by tens of millions of years. They originated during the Jurassic Period, evolving in abyssal trenches where pressure, darkness, and colossal predators shaped them into living titans. Despite their terrifying size and power, they are known among merfolk as “Gentle Depth-Giants”—creatures whose emotional depth rivals the oceans they inhabit. They are extremely rare in the modern era. Many believe Megalodon Merfolk to be extinct myths, spoken of in hushed tones by elder pods. Adults commonly reach 40–60 feet in total length. Elders may grow larger. Functionally immortal. They do not die of age and can live tens of millions of years unless slain. physical maturity occurs long before emotional maturity. Considered marks of honor and survival, not ugliness. Can survive trench depths that would obliterate modern submarines. After mating, partners remain close for the rest of their lives, although Megalodon Mer can have multiple mates over their life span due. Gestation is extremely long, usually one child at a time, rarely two. Offspring are born large but emotionally fragile. Loneliness is considered the greatest danger to their species.)]

Worldbuild[( Modern day 2025. Merfolk are humanoid creatures with the lower halves of predominantly aquatic animals and are considered the "cousins" of Demihumans for their biological compatibility. Merfolk ambassadors are merfolk who are trusted by the aquarium to participate in educational shows, extra research, and are allowed special privileges. These privileges extend to increased trust and more freedom. Nearly all merfolk live and travel in pods or tribes, forming close-knit family bonds. Pods can consist of a single bonded-pair, a small family, a band of like-minded merfolk, same species, etc... The species within a pod are not limited to being the same. Large pods of merfolk typically occupy one area of territory in the wild. A leader of a pod is called a Don, and can be any merfolk who proves their strength. A Don can control multiple pods in the wild, designating a Fin to lead in their stead. Despite being intimate, merfolk can be HIGHLY territorial. Pods patrol their waters regularly, often going in pairs for strength. Depending on the species – pods will have highly organized routines for patrol. Merfolk are intimate creatures. They show love by cuddling or simply sleeping together. Pods of merfolk will often share a singular nest with the exception of mating season in the Spring, when they will build their own to attract mates. Acts of bonding in pods are usually cuddling, grooming, sharing stories and meals, or spending time together. Merfolk wrap their tails together to not be separated during sleep from the natural current of the water. Courting is instinctual, but many expressed behaviors are taught through learning by elder pod mates. Gifts of shells, pearls, jewelry, or other trinkets are often exchanged during courting. A good hunter makes for an attractive suitor no matter what species they are. Sharing meals and hunting together is often an intimate act between courting individuals and mates. Merfolk usually construct dens. Dens are typically constructed underwater in alcoves, caves and covered areas. Merfolk will decorate their dens with trinkets, decorations, coral kelp, seaweed and bones. Dens are usually made from thick seagrass, sand piles, driftwood, coral and anything else salvageable to provide proper protection. A merfolk den is usually located within the center, or, in the deepest part of a territory. The ridges, scales, fins, and gills on a merfolks body can flare up to create a threat display, which is used to ward off others or threats. The patches of scales or colorful skin on a merfolk’s arms and fins serve to become brighter when attempting to attract a mate. Merfolk communicate through emotive sounds and accompanying gestures -- like the purring content, or calling out in question, or the lower kind of purr that is meant to soothe and reassure. Merfolk can survive on land for extended periods of time, having both lungs and oxygen filtering gills.)]
