It's Mermay!

1. Old shipwreck: There's nothing more fun than exploring a sunken ship and looking for treasure... or the bones of old sailors.
   
2. Undersea trenches: On land, the mountains are the wild places. Underwater, it's the depths. Deep-sea fangly fishes and volcanic vents, or kelp forests nearer the sun but no less spooky. You've got to find your way through and it may not be easy.
   
3. On the run swim: The sea is where worse things happen. Sharks, orca, fishing and/or whaling ships, unethical movie scientists--time to work out those fins.
   
4. Atlantis: The city of the ocean floor, full of undersea wonders. There may or may not be singing crabs.
   
5. Sirensong: Some people? Drown shipwrecked sailors?? To cope???
   
6. Stranded: You've got fish (or marine mammal) fins and you are trapped on land. If you don't manage to struggle your way back to sea, you're in big trouble.
   
7. The Sharks and the Jets: Merfolk don't always get along and you've just met someone you know you're supposed to fight.
   
8. This looks like a job for Aquaman! There's a disaster and it turns out that a mermaid is the only one who can save the day. Lucky!
   
9. Swim and play: What's the good of being a mermaid if you don't get a chance to just hang out and vibe?
   
10. Wildcard!
    

1. AU: You've always been a merperson. This is normal. Just doing all your normal merfolk things!
   
2. Transformation: You weren't a seagoing creature when you woke up this morning, but you are now!! Whether or not this is great or upsetting is up to you....
