Descended from Humans and Mermaids, Sirens are attractive beings who tend to live near the sea rather than in it, though they are as deadly as they are beautiful given their nasty tempers.
☼ Are capable of Siren song.

This allows Sirens to cast illusions, enchantments, or water magic solely with the power of their voice. Additionally, the Siren song can cause a listener to fall in love with the singer for 24 hours if the Siren so desires, though listeners can build up immunity to this effect.

☼ Are exceptionally gifted at normal singing.

☼ Can temporarily deafen an assailant with a screech. Most Siren screams are able to crack glass even if it cannot fully shatter it.

☼ Possess hashmarks behind their ears like their Mermaid ancestors but do not have webbed fingers or toes or the ability to gain a fish tail.

☼ Can stay underwater for up to one hour.

☼ Are particularly adept swimmers. Most of the world's best aquatic athletes have some Siren heritage.

☼ Share an empathic link with Mermaids and can feel whenever one is nearby and its emotional state.

☼ May be male or female, contrary to popular belief.

☼ Get dehydrated very easily, especially in hot water, and must therefore drink much more than a Human being.

☼ Are particularly susceptible to the effects of alcohol and other drugs.

☼ Have normal Human lifespans.

☼ Can be killed by anything that kills a Human.
