A winged/angelic/fallen alongside with a merman/mermaid

Here is the thing, these are my newer versions of old RP's. I can be either of them and you can be something else. Maybe the exact opposite. like when I am a angelic, you a mermaid? Just suggesting, either way, enjoy!



If Winged:

Leon was born and raised not knowing anything. A day after he was born he was left to a random home in a basket with a note, after that he spent the next fifteen years of his life not knowing anything about the adoption. on his sixteenth however he had a sort of...problem.
the other side of him had been growing and unfortunately decided to appear, when he was at home alone during the summer he had a random event, his wings appeared, shooting out through his back, breaking the skin and sending him into a episode of both panic and pain. by the time his supposed brother had gotten home the kitchen was splattered with blood from his wings having forced through his skin and he was laid out on the floor in a mess of blood covered feathers. his brother phoned their parents and when they came home, immediately had him locked in a spare room without windows and for days he laid out. waking up only after two days he found food and water, ate and drank happily someone opened the door, he didn’t recognize the person but they came at him with a knife, that’s when he found out about another gift. as he shouted "NO" and set out his hand, the person flew back from a wind force and he made his escape. his parents had left him to be killed.
two years later Leon was now eighteen. he had used his survival techniques he had learned in boyscout. Though he still did not know how to fly yet he managed to learn a few things about his wind powers. not much but he was getting increasingly better. as he walked through a mountain range he came across a hot springs, he laid down on the edge of it, letting his lower body soak after a day of long traveling and soon fell asleep. (the springs can be changed to a lake or so)



If Merman:
Alone at the age of fifteen, he had always been called far swimmer for his amazing underwater swimming speed. But never received a real name
His tribe was that of the merpoeple, he had been born and raised by his parents when he was younger, but the tribe he lived in was small. The reason being was that Humans were constantly hunting them, therefore reducing their numbers. When he reached the age of sixteen however he was to be given a 'coming of age' ceremony, one that enabled him to marry, be given an actual name and reproduce, as well as receive his so called 'water working powers' which would enable him to control water to a certain extent. The females were given a pearl to keep a hold of in a shell locket around their necks that enabled them their amazing voice that humans had come to know, but the males received a supposedly magical scale from an elder that was supposed to allow them increased power in their ability to fight and manipulate water. They were supposed to marry and breed soon afterward o a female they were fond of or assigned if it was a more royal family. However far swimmer never received
Far swimmer only heard screams the morning he woke up for the ceremony, when he looked outside his assigned cave he saw scuba divers with harpoon guns as they came for the supposed magic sharing flesh of their people, the magic was supposedly passed on from the merman/maid to the human, though this never happened it was also used for a remedy in curing the incurable in some human cultures, both were false. 
as he watched he was met with a harpoon of his own, it skidded across his right arm as he turned to dodge it. he tried to get away but was in such a hurry that he swam into a rock, hitting his head and passing out in the coral. by the time he woke he looked out to the village and saw nothing. he took off the pearl filled garments for his ceremony and left. unable to find anyone else, he went to neighboring tribes only to find the same fate...
now eighteen and no ceremony he swam down streams and rivers on search of his kind, guessing the would retreat somewhere supposedly safer. 
stopping at a hot springs he decided to call it a day and laid at the bottom of the hot springs, smiling as the warm feeling took him over and he started to drift off.


Nekos and other species also welcome!
