Gummy Sharks

Average Lifespan: Unknown

Appearance: Gummy sharks have a humanoid top half with a shark bottom half. Their ears are pointed and they have fins on their shoulders, hips, back, and on the females, the genitals. Along their bellies and tails, and sometimes the face, is a large white section. The rest of their skin is usually blue raspberry, but may come in other fruity colors such as orange, red cherry, pink strawberry, or sometimes a dark blackberry color. Gummy sharks' hair is typically the same color as their skin but may be a lighter or darker shade with white stripes. The eyes of gummy shark are always wide but angular, giving them an aggressive and angry stare that matches their typical nature.

Nature: Gummy sharks are independent and highly territorial. They mark the borders of their territory with bones. The bigger the bones the scarier the shark. They fight amongst each other most of the time as well as with other sea life infringing on their hunting space. Because of their fighting nature gummy sharks end up with nasty scars as they grow. When they want to mate they hesitantly leave a trail of bones, shells, or even food, from a potential mate's territory to their own. Sometimes this invitation is taken advantage of and competing sharks in the area will steal from a shark who has let their guard down in hopes of a mate's attention.
