This mermaid was a member of the Eastern Pod in ancient times. She fell in love with a land boy, but their relationship was discovered by another pod. Wishing to punish the mermaid and her entire pod for letting it happen, the other pod changed the boy into a Water Dragon whose only wish was to destroy the mermaids. His loved one found or created a magic bracelet and she used it to change him back into a human. Her tale is immortalized as the Legend of Jiao Long.
Somehow, her bracelet was lost but was found centuries later by another mermaid, Rikki Chadwick.
The Chinese Mermaid likely possessed all the powers and abilities of a mermaid native from the Eastern Pod. She was most likely also skilled with various Chinese kung-fu styles, and possessed the deep knowledge of certain moves known only to Eastern merpeople, including the "Turn the Tide", a defensive move to deflect magic, a spell to transfer knowledge, etc.
Since she was in a relationship with her human lover, it was likely that the Chinese mermaid was also under the Legs Spell.
Unknown Powers: It was unknown what kind of powers the Chinese mermaid possessed, however, she was likely to had possessed all the regular and elemental powers of a mermaid native from the Eastern Pod.
Invisibility: It was likely that the Chinese Mermaid possessed the natural common ability to temporarily render herself completely physically invisible to the naked eye.
Moon Spell Control: An essential skill that every merperson has to learn to master properly, as it lets them survive the Full Moon's spell without letting it control them. It was likely that the Chinese mermaid learned the skill when she was a hatchling.
Limited Transformation: Weilan used the Legs Spell to turn her tail into human legs. She can transform into a mermaid ten seconds after physical contact with water. She turns back into a human a few minutes after she is out of the water and when the water on her has fully dried. Once her body is completely dry, she turns back into a human along with the outfit she was wearing before the transformation.
Enhanced Breath: Merpeople are able to hold their breath without any discomfort for at least fifteen minutes before needing to breathe, and will get unconscious if the time period extends over past those minute.
Speed-Swimming: The ability that all mermaids and mermen are shown to have. It's the ability to swim at an incredible speed, and as such, their bodies is encased in bubbles because of the incredible high speed. Weilan has the ability to swim at a super speed, and dive at depths no human being is capable of, completely protected from its cold and water pressure.
Aquatic Adaptation: Depending on where they are born and raised, merpeople may be resistant to certain elements in that area.
Enhanced Senses: Merpeople may have slightly enhanced senses suited to life underwater due to living in the sea. To sea born mermaids, land people smell horrible, even the average hygienic human emits this smell but only mermaids can detect it.
Endurance: Merpeople are able to swim for days without exhaustion, something which no human has the stamina to do. They can also dive at depths no human could withstand.
Amphibious: Merpeople's respiratory system can extract oxygen from both water and air, allowing them to breathe freely both underwater and on land.
Extended Lifespan: While merpeople do age, their lifespan is far longer than that of humans.
Moon Ring: The Chinese mermaid, being a full-fledged member of the ancient Eastern Pod, possessed her own Moon Ring, and was presumably able to utilize all of its spells the same way her fellow mermaid could.
Jiao Long Bracelet: It was speculated that the Chinese mermaid created the enchanted bracelet, which was carved from a ruby, presumably a moonstone, and possessed the ability to revert a bewitched Water Dragon back to its true, original form. She used it to revert her human lover back to his true human self after he was bewitched by another pod into becoming a fearsome and devastating sea-beast as a punishment of the two lovers falling in love with each other due to the Chinese being a mermaid, and her lover being a regular human being.
Weaknesses[]
This mermaid had all the typical weaknesses of an Easternmermaid.
Trivia[]
Her role is very similar to Eva. Both are past mermaids and both faced a similar threat to the protagonists and both offered a solution to defeating this threat.
It is possible the dragon she faced could not harm her because of the love they shared. The same happened for Mimmi and Zac as their mother was the dragon they faced.
The bracelet she used to save her lover is claimed to have existed since the Shang Dynasty, thus dating them all to having lived approximately between 1600 and 1046 BC.
