Physical Description
From the waist up, Kelp looks human. From the waist down, she has the powerful body of a shark.

Her human half is olive-skinned and slender, with small breasts that leave her almost flat-chested. She wears her hair short, for practicality's sake, so she doesn't get tangled in it while swimming and hunting. She lets it grow no longer than down to her jaw, and it grows fringy and feathery and thick, in shades of green and yellow, much like her namesake kelp. Her eyes are large and black, no whites of her eyes to be seen. Her ears are pointed, and along the sides of her neck are visible gill slits. Her fingers sport thin, translucent webbing between them.

Kelp could be regarded as quite pretty, in an eerie way, if it weren't for her smile. Her mouth sports rows of sharp, serrated teeth, some of them broken. Like a shark, she can lose teeth and replaces them quickly.

Along her back is a dorsal fun and second dorsal fin, further down. Her shark body also sports pectoral fins, pelvic fins, and anal fins. Like a shark, her powerful tail moves side to side, and the shark half of her body is green in color, a dark green along her back while fading as a gradient to her belly, where it turns pale green, almost white. Her body (human and shark halves alike) sports many pale scars from fights with humans and other sea life, including nicks in her dorsal fin.

As a mermaid, she had no need for clothes, though she will sometimes wear belts and necklaces of woven kelp. She got her name from the plant, because she enjoys hunting among it, and can blend in well.

Personality
Predatory. Serious. Kelp is a hunter, through and through, and quite solitary.

Magic/Abilities
A powerful hunter, when it comes to small prey, like fish, Kelp often just uses her teeth. With large game, she uses a trident, which she is quite proficient with.
