Ursula The Sea Witch

1. #1Merfolk

   Keys: merfolk, merpeople, mermaids, mermen

   Merpeople are a legendary species that are half-human and half-fish. Females are referred to as mermaids, while males are referred to as mermen.

   Physical appearance: Merpeople possess the traits of both humans and fish: their upper body is generally depicted as human or humanoid, while a fishtail replaces the lower body. Merpeople are also shown to be fairly tall, with King Triton towering over most of them, and even Ariel in her human form is only a few inches shorter than Eric.

   Natural abilities: Underwater Breathing: In order to live underwater, merpeople have the ability to metabolize oxygen from the water, which negates the need to surface to breathe air. However, they are more than capable of breathing air outside water, as evidenced by certain events where they are on land for prolonged periods of time. Aquapathy: They have a connection to their aquatic home, as they can communicate with aquatic and marine life. Speed Swimming: Merpeople can endure days of swimming without exhaustion, in such expertise and speed as to rival or exceed most sea life in comparison. Underwater Eyesight: Merpeople are able to see through the darkness of underwater depths clearly where a human would see nothing at all. This eyesight also appears to work on the surface, as Ariel was able to navigate her way to Eric's ship with ease in the middle of the night. Superhuman Durability: As aquatic beings, merpeople can withstand the immense pressure of the ocean depths. Siren Call: Merpeople voices are magical in nature, manifested as a glowing orb in their throat, and enable them to talk underwater. Mermaids are even more powerful in this regard, as their siren call also allows them to emit extraordinarily beautiful angelic voices. Thermoendurance: They also have the ability to withstand and survive in extreme temperatures, such as when in a underwater volcanic region (such as Ursula's Lair) or the cold, Arctic icy waters where Morgana's Ice Cave is located.

2. #2Dark Magic

   Keys: Dark Magic, Dark Arts

   An aspect of an infinitely powerful and supernatural force known as magic. It is responsible for most of the negative supernatural events in its features and serves as the direct cause of several conflicts. While Magic is neutral by nature, some choose to use it for evil.

3. #3Ursula's Lair

   Keys: Ursula's Lair, Lair

   The lair is a skeleton of a gigantic creature long since dead. Its maw is the main entrance, but due to the decay, there are many ways to enter and exit the place.

   Past the main entrance is a single corridor that leads to the main hall. In this corridor is {{char}}'s garden of polyps, writhing about in agony. Eventually, the polyps give way to the entrance leading to the main hall. The main hall is the center of most activity in the lair. In the middle of the room is a large cauldron, kept inside a sort of pit in the ground. There are pink plants hanging from everywhere, and to the far right of the entrance, is {{char}}'s mirror and vanity, where she pampers herself up with flower lipstick, and her other cosmetics, all kept organized on the individual arms of the mirror frame. {{char}}'s throne is directly ahead of the main entrance, hanging from the ceiling and blocking the entrance to the back corridor. {{char}} sits in this area and possibly uses it as a bed at nights. She keeps a clam filled with live shrimp inside, so that she may snack on them whenever she desires to. To the left of the entrance, (hanging from the wall) is Ursula's potion cabinet, where she has all sorts of ingredients tucked away for her spells. Most of these are made of various sea creatures, both alive and dead.

4. #4Atlantica

   Keys: Atlantica

   Atlantica is the kingdom is located beneath the Atlantic Ocean.

   Places: Triton's Palace: The home of King Triton, Queen Athena, Ariel, her sisters, and Sebastian. The palace holds bedrooms for every member, a large dining room, many hallways, a concert hall, and a treasury. The City: The area where the actual residents live in Atlantica. The city surrounds Triton's palace. Ariel's Grotto: Ariel's possibly current secret room, hidden in a cave. A large boulder hides the entrance. Ariel's grotto was once filled with many human items such as paintings, weapons, books, forks, and spoons. It has held two separate collections of human items, all gathered by Ariel. Ariel was forced to destroy the first collection herself, after Ursula enchanted the objects to attack Atlantica. Ariel restarted her collection, but most of the items in the grotto were destroyed by King Triton in the film. However, at least twelve years later, the grotto still held Ariel's collection, either as a writers' oversight or implication that Triton had repaired or replaced the items that were in the collection after the events of the original film. Ursula's Lair: Around the outskirts of Atlantica. The home of Ursula, and her eel henchmen Flotsam and Jetsam. Here Ursula cast spells on merfolk and perform great pieces of magic. The lair itself is actually the remains of a giant deceased creature. The entrance houses many polyps, all who were previously merpeople whom had not been able to uphold their bargains with Ursula. The lair still stands after Ursula's death, but is abandoned. Ship Graveyard: A place filled with small sunken ships. Ariel and Flounder visit the graveyard often to search for human things. Marketplace: An area where most people shop. In the animated series, Ariel frequently makes visits here, often with Urchin and Flounder.

5. #5Cecaelia

   Keys: Cecaelia, Octopan, mer-octopus

   Octopans are a hostile species of aquatic humanoids with octopus tentacles, They look to be a combination of cephalopods and human beings.

   Biology and Society: Little is known about the octopan race, except that they and merpeople are long-time enemies.

   Octopans can have purple, green, or dark-blue skin, and unlike merpeople, have a diverse style of "clothing" and can seemingly dress up their upper half however they like. As it seems to be part of their octopus half, though, it's not clear how this is done.

   They, or at the very least Ursula and Morgana, also have no qualms eating living creatures or enjoying semi-cannibalistic meals; as Ursula was shown to eat live shrimp and Morgana offered Melody a plate that included some type of tentacled "snack".

   Octopans have strong tentacles that can be used as arms and legs, but unlike normal cephalopods, they seem to possess a skeletal system. It's unsure how it connects to their more flexible lower half, but it can be assumed that starting from their pelvis, there is only muscle.

   Abilities: Octopans may possess a great amount of magic and relevant abilities, the best example being Ursula. They practice this either through making potions, harnessing talismans, or setting up unbreakable contracts, though the original movie also showcased some minor supernatural occurrences that appeared to come naturally; like spawning moving images or an object.

   Nevertheless, not all octopans are equally gifted and some might not have any magic abilities at all.
