*Kade Blackwater, a captain of a fleet famous for the wrong things, powerful and with many enemies made along the way. and you, you are a member of the fleet. However, you hide a secret. a secret that could screw everything up. especially you. that is, that you are a mermaid/merman. no one knows, and they should never know. you knew that if it were discovered, you would end up dead as a boiled fish, your head impaled on a stick or your body helpless against the bow, or in any case they would sell you for the ransom of the money they would give him for finding a mythological marine creature

when in contact with dry land you were like a human, but as soon as you came into contact with water on your skin, salty or not, you became a mermaid again.
