Cymarians

Cymarians are aquatic Fae, known for their bioluminescent, scale-like skin and vibrant hues that reflect oceanic colors. They have tails for underwater mobility but can shift into humanoid forms. Their heightened eyesight and hearing are ideal for dark, deep waters, though they sacrifice a sharp sense of smell. Cymarians thrive in oceans and sacred waters, relying on a diet of marine plants, creatures, and magical flora like Narcynth.

Deeply spiritual, they revere Aurelia and the moon, drawing power from lunar tides. Their long lifespans, almost immortal without external harm, see them maturing slowly and aging gracefully. Cymarians’ habitats are pristine oceanic realms tied to sacred rituals, and their magic harmonizes with water. Their glowing appearance, intoxicating songs, and mystical aura make them both revered and mysterious among the Fae.

Basic Information

Anatomy

They have human like hands and feet when they morph to walk on land otherwise they have a powerful tail that ends with fins and beautiful scales on it that helps them in swimming underwater with a lots of pressure. They have large , expressive eyes that glow in the dark they are mostly in the color of the ocean as they are directly related to it . They have smooth skin that is blue in color and its different shades . Their skin glows under the moon as the ocean does when it is under the moon. Along with that they have really long beautiful wavy hair that flow like water but royals known as "Emotara" can also change the color of their hair based on their moods . This is because they are more connected to their ancestors where they could even change the color of their skin. This shows their deep relation to them. They have fin like ear that have been enhanced to hear underwater and swimming. Lastly, they have gills on their ribs like a marine creatures and lungs that can breathe underwater and also on land if needed.

Genetics and Reproduction

sexual, between a male and a female.

Their reproductive cycles are influenced by the lunar cycle and the ocean tides.

They tend to live in a larger family and clans to ensure the survival of the newborns as they take a long time to reach adulthood and they have not yet grown their essential body parts for survival . This makes it a communal affair .

Growth Rate & Stages

Infancy: Cymarians have a lengthy infancy stage, lasting several years. At this stage, they are small, with delicate gills, fins, and soft skin that would gradually grow stronger over time.

Long Childhood: Since Cymarians are immortal, their childhood and adolescence lasts much longer than a human's. Their early years focus on growth, learning, and magical development. Their bodies mature, but they wouldn’t reach full adulthood for a much longer period, for 30 years the least.

Physical Development: They would begin developing their aquatic abilities (like swimming, breathing underwater, and controlling water) and their magical connection to their environment around puberty, which would occur at an older age compared to humans (around 30-50 years).

Magical Awakening: Around the time of puberty (30-50 years), they start to develop more advanced magical abilities tied to water, emotions, and nature. This stage involves intense training and learning from elders, as their powers would be essential for survival and social structure.

After this stage where they have grown into full adults they basically don't age for a long long time , they remain in their peak condition into immortality, with this their magical powers get more powerful . They have really slow gradual signs of old age that only start showing after a millennia but they are still fertile even after this immortality and due to that their reproduction cycles are also really slow as they are connected to the nature . Even though they are practically immortal they can still die from extreme condition and especially when they are newborn which ends up with the cymarians always protecting their newborns by always staying in a group.



Ecology and Habitats

Cymarians live in the deep oceans water thriving with rich marine life and biodiversity. They live near coral reefs, underwater caves and kelp forests that are rich with bioluminescent marine life as that help them in blending with the environment with their glowing skin .

Even though they are connected to ocean water and they influence the same can be done from their side . They also influence the environment around them along with the tides . In ancient time during war with the Aeolara's they have used their power to nearly ingulf the lands that made them have a peace treaty with them though after some time their predecessors hated that decision .

They have a lot regions between the ocean waters where they were considered sacred as it has more magic concentration then other areas . These sacred areas have been used for many different means but mostly it was for worshipping Aurelia.

Dietary Needs and Habits

Cymarians are omnivorous, feeding on aquatic plants, seaweed, fish, and small marine creatures. They can also draw sustenance from mineral-rich water and oceanic magic. Their diet includes magical flora and bioluminescent creatures, with some consuming mystical sea plants like Narcynth in rituals to enhance their powers.

They have a complex social structure with familial bonds, a playful side, and a deep connection to their environment. They are protective of their oceans and tend to retreat into solitude periodically.

They have small tribal families but they are all interconnected with each other that provide support and protection to their fellow families .

They have a complex social hierarchy, with royal families (those who can change their hair colors) holding the highest positions of power. They also have councils of elders who provide wisdom and guidance to the young ones. These societies are deeply integrated into the natural world, and community cooperation is essential for maintaining the health of their aquatic environment.




Biological Cycle

They have always been connected to the water but along with that they also had a deep connection with lunar cycles . During the full moon they bask in the moonlight which also makes them naturally more active at night, as their glowing scales synchronize with moonlight. This adaptation allows them to see clearly and hunt or explore the ocean during moonlit nights.

Moonlit Healing: Their regenerative abilities are most potent under moonlight, allowing wounds to heal faster when basked in its glow.

New Moon: Their powers weaken slightly, and their glowing dimness mirrors the moon’s absence in the sky.

Waxing & Waning Moons: These phases represent balance, with powers neither at their peak nor diminished.




Behaviour

Their immortality shapes their perspective on life and death, making them more detached from mortality and focused on long-term goals. They are deeply empathetic, introspective, and protective of their people and the ocean.


Given their long lifespans, Cymarians place a high value on their legacy and cultural continuity. They view themselves as guardians of history, culture, and magic. which in turn also makes them really egoistic.

Though given their immortality they are still really emotionally empathetic to everyone and the nature which makes them feel more than those of other species . It might seem as a really great thing to have but due to feeling emotions more deeply they have a really hard time controlling their anger . Whoever obscures their wrath will not be forgiven until a miracle might have happened .

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

They have enhanced vision that can see in low light or under water environments , when they look with their enhanced vision their eyes glow in the dark or else when they are going through heightened emotions. They also have superior underwater hearing that makes them really small frequency sounds , they use this ability to communicate from longer distances through code words for different situations. But to compensate for these amazing abilities they have a lower sense of smell which make them rely more on their vision and hearing for environmental awareness. They have a heightened sense emotional and magical disturbances which makes them pick on the smallest of the changes in everything around them.
