Sereia Xenili
So I'm in the process of making a comic with this lovely dame. A romance story in 1920s with magical creatures. I'm excited.
Sereia Xenili works as a singer at the Fantasia Resort. Faes aren't exactly the most welcomed species so she spends her days disguised as a human.
Sereia is close to the Fantasia Resort's owner, and was fortunate to have a job after everything she has been through and done. She ain't afraid to dirty her hands, but hates what her kind needs to stay alive.
She works hard to just blend in while most of her friends tell her to just flaunt what she is, like they do.
Switching between forms is easy but to have a full tale she must be completely submerged underwater.
I hope you guys like her. Other characters should come along eventually.

Cakes beat arias: Charles Boccia of 3800 White Plains Rd., the Bronx who, after 35 years of baking, attempted an operatic career, 1927.
After overcoming several difficulties, he got a private tryout before Titta Ruffo, the great bass of the Metropolitan Opera, who predicted a great career for him. However, Boccia decided to return to his large shop in the Bronx—more secure than singing.
