A puny wip because i had a job interview today but still wanted to post

[amphiriteaquarium]

Nudibranchs are such an unique species so just doing humanoids felt wrong. This is my proporsal for nudibranch merfolk aka slugfolk.

All the slugs are under Rox's care in the touch zone. They are all hermaphrodite(both female and male) but some of them are referred to in a specific gender for an instanc in which they were involved with.

Pochi is obsessed with seamoss and world domination, her name comes from "Pochoton" with is slang for chubby. Pochi often leaves her exhibit.

Waffles gained his name after being cared for in medbay and when the caretaker accidentaly feel asleep Waffles took a bit out the snack(ice cream waffles) and got a tummy ache.

Poseidon is territorial and thanks to his diet,very poisonous.He doesn't really like to be touched by humans or other merfolk.

Margarita or Mita, is a clown nudibranch , refered to as they as a staff once said "all clowns are a little fruity" Mita has a pebble(shaped like a ball) which they cary around, they are a very sweet slime ball.

Mermaintaince Crew(Part 1)

I struggle a lot with continuity-

Frist part of the Mermaintance crew and their merfolk partners,whom they work with /for in the Aquarium.

[amphiriteaquarium]

But what is a story of mermaids WITHOUT the mermaids?

(im working on coming up with some cool and cute desings for the merfolk of the story. Khione is a particlar humany mer)

Khione is the most popular mermaid in Amphirite Aquarium. She's known as a sweet and tranquil individual but since an incident a month ago or so Khione hates going out in public! Oh no!

and the wrost part? the Eclipse Jellyfish(did i steal that from sdv?maybe-) is just around the corner!

Kiki is a opalescent mermaid(actually more related to the siren subpecies, as far is there is data she's about he last one too)

Kiki is young, one of the particular grown mermaid that actually y was born in the aquarium!

She used to perform in her younger days.

you win....lORE AND MERMAIDS WOAH AOAH.(i'm lazy)

These is 2 of the 6 so....yeah!

Gather around my sweet guppies as i tell you about something you may or not way to hear about. So in the world of sbr there is "tribes" which refers to different mer.

Atlantic:

Due to the amount of history ,specially around travels and economy this ocean has it makes sense this poblation has interacted more than humans than any other.

Pacific:

i KNOW you have seen those north sea vids on tiktok. do not even lie to me, also one of the most variated in flora and fauna oceans due to it's large extension. This is the home of the apex predator, a type of merfolk that mainly hunts and is known to drown sailors more than once the 'siren' genotype mermaids whom have almost hypnotic signing!

[amphiriteaquarium]

The full thing!

[amphiriteaquarium]

Being from Icaria mar is missing on lot of 'human' holidays. Thankfully Rox is always there to help her!

They ended up getting a ton of stuff they don't need in the christmas market ,as it costumary.

[amphiriteaquarium]

Half what i submitted for a contest and the other something related to the story!

[amphiriteaquarium]

I'M GIVIN IN IM SO SORRY-

you may see the result s in my tiktok if i ever finish it-

[amphiriteaquarium]

It took so much to get back to work on sbr, i have been so uninspired to continuing working on this. BUT LOOK AT MELI,THEY ARE SO PRETTY .

Jellyfish being around 90% water are very spiritually connected to the sea,refered as "Priestesses" or the daugthers they seem to carry ancient knowledge and most of all the power to peer into the future to come.

Melinoe is one of the main attractions at amphirite aquarium,altough seeing her is only reserved for those who can afford such luxury unless rare occasions.

She's Also Muktuk assigned merfolk!

Mermaid Mantaince Specialist

So for such complex beings,like any other fish in the aquarium there is a whole team that dedicates themselves to their care. In sbr world this is a prestiguious and most wanted work as well...mermaids i guess-

If you were interested into the work there is 4 roles you could apply to:

Investigator:

The mere existence of mere intrigues you , there is not a book ,movie or anything you haven't read about them. What mostly intrigues you is how this mythical beings can even survive.

If studying them all day long is something you see doing for all your life,then investigator, is the role for you. As the name alludes this goes from basic mer biology to adaptability and even how other organism interact with them.

Performer:

Sharing a stage with merfolk is a life experience few can actually brag about. I mean, the limeligths,the songs and scene are just too magical to be true. As a performer you are the public face of the aquarium,so keep smiling!

Most of what you will do is train merfolk for their on-stage shows alongside containers(Ecomarine cares about your safety!) and celebrations.

Container:

A tad bit less glamourous than being a performer but you have an important job,make sure nobody gets hurts. Patience, strength and valor are most essentials to be a good container and not everyone is up for the job.

That's why it's one of the best payed ones!(not because there is any danger-never! merfolk are known to be the most tame of beings.)

Overseer:

The big brother,the leader and the eyes. You are tasked with the most important of all jobs,being the one in charge .Making sure those wonderful underwater beings are taken care of and that your team is operating safely. There migth be a lot of performers or investigators but there is only 1 overseer!

(there is a lot of satire in this post )

Mermaintaince Crew(Part 2)

Originally was a fire fairy from a scrap story!. Lives with Rosemary on his families resort.

Indian decent! third generation to be exact, family is from west bengal.

The only true Recifeño from the crew(Mar is from Icaria so they don't count-).He's from brazilian decent!

loves singing too!

AND LAS BUT NOT LEAST

sO LET ME EXPLAIN-

Muktuk was their name, given by my canadian friend whom i asked for help because i tougth they would have more insigth than me on inuit culture. But i fail to find the name on any registry census so i can use it as an actual name(or they are inuktitut). I been using as their "guppy name" which all mers have but would like to know. also his design in general if anyone is interested or wants to speak about it (hopefully being inuit themselves)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE-

my dms are open and i'm ready to change anything-
