Hello, your merfolk art is quite amazing and I have a question.

Since Trish has a human mother and merman father, how different if any is she from full blooded merfolk.

Thank you

Ah thank you!

There's no difference! Any mer born from human/mer relationship are fully mer! (It seems that the mer gene is also dominant)

There seems to be a unique phenomenon though of them being able to stay on land for years without knowing they're a mer though. Unfortunately there's not enough cases of baby mers (with both parents being mer) being stolen and raised on land to confirm if this is a repressed thing or a thing that only mers born from human/mer relationships can do. (Melone has looked into this.)
