happy Final Week of Mermay!!!! here's Renee, an Oceanracer Mer based on the White Marlin!

Oceanracers: These mers possess super-speed, and often use it to save people from drowning before racing back off again. They can often be found racing against each other or dolphins in open ocean waters. Known for being very talkative with humans and unafraid of their secret being discovered, as they don't view it as a secret to keep. However they are still selective of who they reveal themselves to, as they are aware of the threat certain encounters could pose. Their tails resemble fast-swimming fishes such as swordfish, marlins, and scombroid fishes.
