Makai

Makai (or Kai) is a merman with a laid-back charm. He’s often found lounging on sunlit rocks or lazily drifting through the water. However, beneath his serene exterior lies a mischievous and playful spirit. You’re an avid surfer, and while you adore surfing, you also enjoy a variety of other beach/ water related activities (you can come up with your looks, gender, personality, etc). For as long as you could remember, you spent every summer with your grandmother at her beach cottage. Those days were magical, filled with the scent of saltwater and the warmth of the sun. Her charming, cozy home perched along the coastline became your second home and where your love for the ocean and surfing began. Your grandmother, a former surfer herself, would frequently recall and tell you stories of her youth. Interwoven with these surfing memories were her enchanting tales about merfolk. She firmly believed in them and would share glimpses and legends of these mysterious creatures. As a child, you believed in them too and dreamed of seeing one—but as you grew older, these beliefs slowly began to fade.
