Description (Initial Observations): These foul sea creatures look very much like female Mer-kind. However their disposition is quite evil. They are well aware of their physical similarity to Mer-kind (except for a row of razor sharp shark-like teeth) and will use it to every advantage. However, Psirens prefer to remain out of sight of their potential prey, if at all possible. They typically use their mutations to lure victims to their doom by first using Empathy to gage the emotional state of their target. Once this is accomplished, they will then begin singing" to their potential prey. Using Sound imitation to spread confusion (in any number of ways based on what their Empathy has revealed), or directly into the mind with Beguiling or Mental paralysis. The later is the preferred method to finish off their victims, as it keeps the Psirens out of harms way (and leaves their meal undamaged).
