====What is their Destiny====
Mercedes is destined to be the next Little Mermaid, or at least she was meant to. Being born without a voice, many doubt that she will be able to take on her mother's role. Mercedes is fine with not being the next Little Mermaid as the ending isn't very good for her. What she isn't fine with is the reason why so many people in Ever After believe she couldn't do it. Mercedes wants to prove everyone wrong in that sense. Maybe she won't fulfill her mother's role, but she will succeed in something great!
=== History ===
Born a mermaid, Mercedes has always been unable to speak and could never sing the beautiful songs that all the other mermaids could. This was alarming to everyone as Mercedes was meant to be the next Little Mermaid, who needs to have the ocean's most beautiful voice that's worthy of a witch's trade. Due to her disability, the mermaid and Fairy Tale elite decided to focus their efforts on other mermaids who could potentially take up the role of the Little Mermaid. 
Still needing a proper education, Mercedes was enrolled at Ever After High once she was old enough to attend high school. She was given a pair of legs in place of her mermaid tail by the mermaid elite using a powerful magic spell. Only the mermaid elite can give her back her mermaid tail. She is meant to receive her tail again once she graduates from Ever After High. The mermaid elites hope that after graduation she will be able to take up the Little Mermaid role. 
Once on land, Mercedes fell madly in love with a boy at Ever After High. She wants to win him over but finds that hard to do with her lack of a voice and her shyness.
