Huge thanks to MantaTheSeaWing for her! She's a Reefling, an original species belonging to Manta. Also, go check out Manta's books, they deserve so many more reads and votes and followers!

Name: Ilos
Species: Reefling (based off a Pervagor Spilosma)
Age: 2 and a half
Mate/Crush: none, currently

Appearance: see ref (I don't even know how to start describing her)

Personality: she's pretty carefree and bubbly, not really caring what others think of her. She has some OCD tendencies, and loves to play in the coral. She's an adept hunter and doesn't particularly pick up on social signals very well, especially if another Reefling is hitting on her. She cultivates pearls as a hobby, and sometimes carves small stones/driftwood/dead coral. She also has a black pearl necklace that she sometimes wears.

Abilities: can poison others through teeth or points on her fins, extremely good swimmer, can "skim" the water if necessary, camouflage
