Amanta Rae

### Monster Parent

A Mermaid and a Siren. Yes, I am a hybrid, but you wouldn't know by just looking at me.

### Killer Style

Sometimes I like to go super girly...some other times I feel more tomboyish. It is usually something in between though.

### Monster Quirk

Communication is quite difficult for me. It's not that I don't have anything to say, trust me, it I have a lot to say! It's just that I can't. Not in the traditional way at least. Yeah, you got that right. I can't speak. Have been without a voice since birth.

### Pet

My pet Catfish - yes I am a Catfish Ghoul, not a Dogfish Ghoul like everyone always assumes - is called Skittles.

### Favorite Activity

As a Siren/Mermaid Hybrid I just got the music in my blood. But since I cant express myself through singing like other Mermaids or Sirens, I just learned a bunch of instruments. I also write a lot.

### Biggest Pet Peeve

Bigoted monsters who seriously think my handicap is due to my parents "mixing"

### Least Fav Subject

Dead Languages... It's not that I don't like learning those languages, it's just a little frustrating that I can only use them in writing, really.

### Favorite Color

turquoises and blues. Also pretty fond of reds and pinks. To which side I lean more to always depends on my mood, to be honest.

### Favorite Food

Seafood. I wouldn't say no to fish either.
