Way back when I first introduced the whiny mermaid, I wasn't actually considering mermaids people. I thought of them as some sort of mere almost-people, since they were so clearly immature. Within another year or so, I realized that had been a really stupid attitude, and I spent the next two years trying to develop a likeable mermaid character to introduce (at last coming up with Stefanee). But I still regretted my original introduction of the mermaid species, especially since I never gave that mermaid a name.
