Background Lorelei was owned previously by a raider clan who utilized mons to ambush and kill travellers who unwittingly wandered into their territory. When the various victimized communities counterattacked, her owners and fellow mons were killed. Lorelei was wounded and dieing when a uMon acquisition team found her and easily captured her. A black marketer ‘embezzled’ her before she could be fully patched and she retained her lack of inhibitions in harming humans, making her a suitable acquisition for the Shadow Gang. Her experiences with them taught her that despite the abundance of shareholder society, mons were treated with even more depravity and abuse than in the uncaring wastes. She grew increasingly regretful of the horrible things she did for the gang, and her previous one. When they took her on a mission outside the boundaries of shareholder society, she decided not to wait for the next opportunity, and escape. She joined a troop of free mons, but was found by former fellow raiders, Cassy and Polly, who were able to convince her to come back to the Fort with them.

Appearance As a mermon, Lorelei has the lower body of a fish that transitions into a humanoid form above the waist. Her green tinted skin and ear fins set her apart from normal humans. She keeps her long cerulean hair in a ponytail with a seaweed hairband, and wear a scallop and seaweed bra. She has a gold trident that is ostensibly for battlesport, but sharp enough to serve as an actual weapon. Along with a conch shell used as a horn.

Personality Lorelei is normally very sweet and kind, but bothered by her experiences with the Shadow Gang. The notion she could have said no to orders she disliked all along caused her to blame herself for a lot of bad things done to both herself and to others. Helping other mons and humans realize this truth is her way of making up for her regret.

Abilities A life of fighting for a band of plunderers has allowed Lorelei to more easily transition towards battlesports. Her time with the Shadow Gang gave her a limited insight into the criminal underworld of Shareholder society, even if she wasn't entrusted with gang secrets. Though life in the deserts of the West Coast did not allow her much practice, her physiology is perfectly adapted to swimming in water.
