How big are they? I was thinking like a eel from earth, although I don't know how big electric eels get I know the ones we have in the zoos around here get big enough that, compared to the smalls, there is not much I can say as a comparison. Maybe some sorta big building.

Hmm...

Working together I could probably send a tethered drone fish in to ground the Electric thing out (crispy fish is crispy), then you can move in for the kill. It may take some time for the new colony to build a fish though.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Small is a very relative word.

Yeah. Like, we talking three inches or five feet.

Both can be small when talking about eels.

Okay, might I propose a unified system of size for the purpose of the game?

OMUs (Oceania Mass Units)

A generic small = 1 OMU

A little fish = 100 OMUs

A two foot eel = 40,000 OMUs

A merman = 1,000,000+ OMUs (If my scale is right.)

So around 5k per pound? That means a small is about 1/10 of a gram. I am not so good at working with such small amounts, but even that sounds a wee bit big.

That would certainly help things, Draignean.
the main Warrior caste of merpeople is heavier than the rest of them, though.

We'd need to find the OMU of a Small to tell if the scale is off or not, but it seems fine from here.

It's just to give you a general idea, it isn't hard and fast. More so Aklyon can say that a fish is 73,200 OMU's and we can go OH SHIT! It's nearly 75K times bigger than we are! GTFO!

Ok then.

Give me an OMU for something about orca size and we should be good for now, we can make the rest as we go.

A male Orca is between 40,000,000 OMU and 60,000,000 OMU

A female is between, 15,000,000 OMU and 40,000,000 OMU
