Under the Sea!
The Underwater Meme
Welcome to the ocean! It's a big, wet world out there, so here's your guide to what's all in store for you!
Fauna
There's many different species in the ocean, some you've heard of, some you haven't, here's just a few of the many creatures you can discover:
1. Mer-chimera - These people are half one species and half sea creature. The most common ones are mermaids and mermen, who are half-human and half-fish, however, some of these people have halves such as dolphins, crocodiles, and even squid. There's even rumors of some being half-sea monster or even half-dinosaur! There's no limit to what their ocean-faring half is, be it something real, extinct, or imaginary. (Characters in the meme can be half their appearance and half any other creature they choose, even things like water Pokemon are options, it's all up to you. Also, they can have always been this way or have found themselves suddenly transformed.)
2. Ocean Creatures - There's plenty of fish in the sea! And dolphins. And whales. And sharks. Every sea creature ever recorded (and a few that haven't been!) are found in this ocean.
(Your character can be any type of ocean-going creature, including things from mythology or other canons. They can have always been this way or have been changed into a sea creature.)
3. Land Creatures - Humans and other land-based critters live, work, and play around the ocean, be it on beaches, floating towns, or just taking a swim or scuba diving or even fishing.
(If you don't want to make any changes to your non-ocean character (or want to make an ocean character a land one), you can use this option to experience the sea.)
4. Other - There's always something new being discovered in the ocean, maybe we haven't found it yet, keep us updated on anything new you find out there!
Locales
There's plenty of places out there, here's some favorite spots!
1. The Seat of the Empire - This is the biggest city in the entire ocean! The emperor of the sea built his castle here and a nice city has sprung up around it. They're always welcoming to tourists, though if you cause trouble, you might just find yourself spending a night or two in the Locker, a high-security prison.
2. Towns - If the big city's not your thing, then there's plenty of small towns scattered about the ocean for you to experience.
3. Open Ocean - If you just want to get away from it all, then you'll want to check out the miles and miles of ocean between the towns and cities, there's all sorts of lovely things like the seaweed fields, the trenches, and open waters for you to discover!
4. The Ice Caps - Things are pretty chill in these freezing waters found at opposite ends of the ocean. There's plenty of ice and glaciers, along with some snow-covered land. Only the creatures with the warmest blubber or clothes can really enjoy their time here.
5. The Deep - The Deep is one of the most dangerous parts of the entire ocean, there's several spots around the sea where it's dark and mysterious. Strange and sometimes dangerous creatures live down here and there's sea volcanoes that increase the temperature to sometimes deadly levels. Not only that, but the pressure is greater down here, making it more difficult on ocean-goers. But, there are rewards to exploring this section of the ocean, there's luminescent creatures that are exotically beautiful and some of the old caves around the sea volcanoes have valuable crystals of different shapes and colors.
6. Other - If you've discovered a new place in the ocean, please feel free to write us and tell us all about it and we'll update our guide to let others know about other great spots around the sea!
((I hope everybody has fun with this and if you'd like, you can take or modify this meme, I don't mind!))

Suddenly, he takes off incredibly fast after Ralph's prey, and snatches the fish up what seems like effortlessly with his speed. Once he's caught it, he doesn't hesitate to immediately bite in and start eating it despite the fact it's still wiggling around alive, gnashing into it with his sharp canine teeth, its blood now floating in the water.]
no subject
When he sees Turbo grab his fish, Ralph growls and picks up his speed to catch up with the racer.
He stops a couple feet away from him, he'd really like to slam into Turbo, but Ralph's always getting into trouble for fighting, and he wants to try and avoid that, at least for a while. Even if Turbo starts it, the Emperor would probably side with him, instead of Ralph.]
Hey! I was chasing that fish first! It's mine!
[Turbo's barbaric attack on the fish while it's still alive doesn't help Ralph's mood, he at least kills things before he starts eating them.]
no subject
Too slow, fat-fins! This one's mine~
Go chew some sea slugs or somethin', maybe you'll actually be able ta'catch 'em! Hahaha!
no subject
He's pretty tense and close to punching Turbo, but he's doing his very best to keep his temper in check. He's spent too many nights in the Locker already. They never hold him for long, just a couple of days to teach him a lesson.
The fish is a mangled mess and Turbo's been chewing on it, so it's unappetizing, but darn it, that was his fish. He's hungry and it's wearing on his mood.]
Give. It. Back.
no subject
Oh, ya want it?
[He takes one more huge bite, tearing off the last large bit of tasty meat for himself.]
Here, catch!
[Laughing, he throws what's left - which isn't much, mostly inedible bone and tissue - at Ralph.]
no subject
As soon as the fishy remainder leaves his hand, he gives a powerful swish of his tail and charges at Turbo. At this distance, he can't build up much speed, so if he impacts the other merman, it won't do much damage. But, at the same time, Turbo won't have much of a chance to react and escape.
If Ralph manages to rush him or grab him, he fully intends on slamming Turbo into the nearest hard surface, be it a rock or the ocean floor or whatever else is nearby.
His ferocious temper is well-known among all the other merfolks, so Turbo might have anticipated Ralph losing it.]
no subject
Which is why he doesn't just swiftly swim away when the large merman charges and grabs him, ramming him painfully into a nearby rock.]
OOMF--!!
[Pinned down against the rock, the sailfish-merman groans, scowling furiously at Ralph as he tries to struggle out of his grasp.]
Holy freakin' halibut, what the heck's yer damage, blubberbutt?! LEMME GO!!
no subject
Having actually succeeded in doing some harm to Turbo, his anger subsides somewhat, leaving Ralph breathing heavily, but still holding on tight.
He wants to make sure that Turbo's not gonna bother him again, so he presses him against the rock harder.
Ralph's tone is still angry, but it's not the raging fury he had moments ago.]
Not until you apologize.
no subject
Ya friggin' kiddin' me!? What should I apologize fer, the fact ya SUCK at catchin' yer own food?! Pfft, AS IF! NOT HAPPENIN'!
no subject
Then I'm not gonna let you go.
[The thought occurs to him that if he injured Turbo's tail, he wouldn't be able to dart around as fast as he was used to. However, that's horribly brutal, even for him, and he wouldn't do something like that, even to somebody like Turbo, unless he was completely out of control in his rage.]
