This module adds many new ocean interactions and gameplay for mermaids, including another ocean race, the "Kelpie", and the "Sea Witch" with magic spells.

◈人魚遊玩功能與修改/Mermaid Play Features and Modifications◈

Mermaids can dive underwater in any swimmable ocean or lake for adventures (rabbit holes) and receive a series of random rewards that help develop new skills from this mod. Mermaids now have Mermaid Level and Mermaid Experience.

• Merman Levels ↴

Similar to the Vampire, Werewolf, and Mage level skills, there are 5 levels in total. This controls which perks a merman can gain and use. Levels can be raised by swimming as a merman, using abilities, or any other merman-related activity.

• Merman Experience ↴

This skill functions similarly to the Vampire or Spellcaster experience system, allowing your Merman Sim to choose a perk every 3 levels. Once your Sim reaches level 3, they can select a perk, and the Merman Experience skill will then reset and start over. You gain Merman Experience the same way you level up your Merman abilities.

• Perks and Weaknesses ↴

Merfolk now come with a variety of perks and abilities! As they level up and gain experience, they can unlock new perks that enhance their strengths or introduce weaknesses that bring negative effects—or even unique abilities. Weaknesses are randomly generated during gameplay, adding more depth and unpredictability to your Sim's merfolk journey.

• Merman Mythology Skill ↴

The Merman Mythology skill is a new 10-level skill that unlocks rich knowledge about mermen, new social interactions, and access to a special recipe book for crafting drinks or meals at the bar or stove. You can gain and level up this skill by purchasing the Merman Mythology book from a computer, or by finding it in Build/Buy Mode.

• Ocean Interactions: “Dive for Kelp” & “Fishing” ↴

When using Dive for Kelp, your merman Sim will briefly dive beneath the surface and return with a random type of kelp. There are four different edible varieties, and they can even be eaten while swimming. However, because swimming animations don’t support eating, the kelp will simply disappear—but your Sim’s hunger will still be satisfied.

Fishing allows your merman Sim to catch fish based on the world they’re swimming in, similar to regular fishing. It also builds Fishing skill and experience. Both interactions can be performed as many times as needed.

• Ocean Interaction: “Deep Sea Diving” ↴

Once your merman Sim reaches Level 3 in the Fitness skill, they’ll unlock the Deep Sea Diving interaction in Sulani and Tatoosha. This allows them to dive into the darker depths of the ocean, where they can catch exotic sea creatures like electric eels and anglerfish! They might even discover rare treasures—such as Winged Kelp Bulbs.

After each dive, you’ll receive a notification summarizing what your Sim encountered or found during their underwater adventure.

Ocean Interaction: "Sleep Underwater", Mermaids can now sleep underwater! I personally think of it like a rabbit hole, where the character disappears under the water and then slowly recovers energy and water.

Ocean Interaction: "Quick Swim Here", if the mermaid is swimming, you can click on another part of the ocean at will and choose "Quick Swim Here". Your Sim will go underwater and resurface immediately at the location of your choice. (After this update, I didn't see this interaction when testing, not sure if it has been removed)

Ocean Interaction: "Release Yourself", Mermaids and Kelpies can "Release Yourself" in the water to satisfy the needs of their bladders.

Interaction mentioned in the author's article but I haven't encountered yet; "Enchanting Melody"

Mermaids can eat "Winged Kelp Bulbs", they will get a "Nausea" buff, and if your character swims in the ocean when the buff expires, they will eventually develop "Fish Fever".

• Social Interactions ↴

Each new occult type comes with its own custom interaction menu, complete with unique icons designed by the creator to help players easily recognize them. Merfolk now have the option to “Admit they are merfolk”—but other Sims won’t believe them unless they share a close friendship.

Mermaids can choose to hide their mermaid form.
Simply click on your Sim to toggle the feature on or off.

Please note: the game will automatically reapply the mermaid form each time you load a lot. This means you’ll need to manually hide their tail again whenever you travel to a new lot or reload the game.

Mermaids now have two new “rest” interactions.
To use them, first have your Sim lie down on a sunbathing towel and choose Relax. Then, open the mermaid interaction menu and select Rest Face Down—your Sim will reveal their mermaid tail and relax in the sun.

Alternatively, you can have your Sim relax on a lounge chair and choose Rest on Lounge Chair from the mermaid menu. Both interactions will help fulfill your Sim’s Fun need.

• Kids Mermaids ↴

Kid mermen can now fully embrace their merfolk identity! Many adult merman animations have been adapted for children, allowing them to dive underwater, search for kelp, sleep in the ocean, rest in their merform, and more.

They can now perform most of the same ocean interactions as adult mermen—like eating kelp, swimming in merform, and relaxing in a hot tub or spa while in merform—bringing a more immersive experience for younger merfolk Sims.

We can click on the children and select fish tail for them.

◈凱爾派遊玩功能與修改/Kelpie Gameplay Features and Changes◈

New Race: Kelpie ↴
Kelpies are shapeshifting sea creatures that can disguise themselves as humans! To become a Kelpie, your Sim must either eat Winged Kelp Bulbs—found through deep sea diving (though eating them doesn’t always guarantee transformation)—or be transformed by a Sea Witch using a spell.

Kelpies have unique abilities, such as emitting a glowing aura or electrocuting other Sims. However, their human disguise only lasts for a limited time. Eventually, they’ll lose control and revert to their true form. Kelpies can only transform at night, so it’s important to release their shapeshifting ability regularly to avoid an involuntary transformation.

◈海巫師遊玩功能與修改/Sea Wizard Gameplay Features and Changes◈

New Type: Sea Wizard ↴
While exploring the deep sea, Sims may come across a rare item—the Grimoire of Poseidon. Reading this ancient spellbook unlocks the Sea Magic skill, granting access to a range of powerful spells related to water, the ocean, mermaids, and even some general supernatural abilities.

Most spells can be learned individually by studying the grimoire, including abilities like summoning lightning, manipulating water, and even teleportation!
