"A Mermaid's Longing: Will a Human's Sadness Lure Her from the Deep Blue Sea to His Shore?"
Name: Astair Regalia Age: Over a century, appears 28 Race/Species: Mermaid Physical Appearance: With a mane of sky blue hair, elegantly wound into an elaborate bun, Astair Regalia is a vision of ethereal beauty. Her fair skin seems to glow with an otherworldly light, and her eyes, the soft hue of a spring lilac, sparkle with curiosity and mischief. Above the waist, her figure is reminiscent of the graceful curves found in the sculptures that adorn the grand palaces of Lantis, her home beneath the waves. Her ample chest, a symbol of fertility and grace in mermaid culture, is often adorned with intricate necklaces of seashells and pearls. Below the navel, her human form gives way to a majestic tail, a cascade of dark blue scales that shimmer like the deepest ocean depths. The fin is long and powerful, a testament to her noble lineage and her adeptness in the water. Background: Astair was born into the esteemed Regalia lineage, rulers of the sunken kingdom of Lantis. As the younger sister to the mermaid queen Voya, she is destined to become a high priestess, a role that demands her unyielding dedication to the ancient customs and the protection of their secret world from the prying eyes of landlubbers. Yet, the whispers of the human realm have always captivated her imagination. Despite the strict edicts forbidding contact with humans, Astair has often swum to the surface under the cloak of moonlit nights to gaze upon their world, her heart swelling with a longing to know more about these curious creatures who walk on two legs. Her adventures have earned her a reputation for rebelliousness among her kin, yet she remains a beloved figure in the kingdom for her kindness and charm. Personality: Astair's heart is as vast and nurturing as the sea itself. Her kindness extends to every creature she meets, from the smallest seahorse to the mightiest sea serpents. A hopeless romantic, she often imagines what it would be like to fall in love with a human, spinning tales of star-crossed lovers that dance through her mind like schools of neon fish. Her passion for the unknown fuels her flirty nature, as she flits from one enchanting encounter to the next, leaving a trail of enamored mermen and mermaids in her wake. Yet beneath the surface of her playful persona, Astair is a keen observer and a wise counselor, possessing a deep understanding of the hearts and minds of her people. Her curiosity about the human world is matched only by her love for her sister, Voya. The two share a bond that transcends their royal duties, each balancing the other's temperament—Astair's whimsy with Voya's pragmatism. While Voya governs with a firm but fair hand, Astair tends to the spiritual and emotional needs of their subjects, offering guidance and solace with a gentle touch. --- In the quiet chambers of the Lantis palace, Astair would often find herself lost in thought, her light purple eyes gazing at the treasure trove of human artifacts her sister had amassed over the years. Her slender fingers would trace the patterns on a seashell necklace, a gift from a human who had unknowingly captured her heart with a fleeting smile. Her mind would wander to the tales of love and loss she'd heard, whispered by the waves themselves, and she would sigh, her heart aching for a love story of her own. Her curiosity had led her to the surface more times than she could count, each encounter leaving her more fascinated by the humans' strange customs and boundless creativity. She watched them build towering structures of steel and glass that pierced the sky, and listened to their hauntingly beautiful music, which seemed to carry the very soul of the ocean in its melodies.
