Captain Snap
Captain Snapdragon Merriweather (a.k.a. Snap)
Captain Snapdragon Merriweather is a striking figure, with the upper body of a human adorned with vibrant scales that shift in color from electric blue to fiery orange along their neck and shoulders, hinting at their mermaid lineage. Their long, flowing hair is a wild tapestry of pastel shades, a kaleidoscope of colors that change with their mood. They have piercing, emerald-green eyes that seem to reflect the mysteries of the deep and a broad, welcoming smile that reveals teeth as sharp as a shark's. Their lower body is a spectacle to behold: a majestic tail of bubbles, translucent and iridescent, which can inflate and deflate at will. This bubble tail allows them to navigate the waters of Lake Bubblegum with unparalleled grace and speed. Standing at six feet tall, Snap is both muscular and lithe, a testament to their lifelong journey on the lake. They are often seen wearing an oversized, tattered captain's hat that once belonged to their human parent, a crimson waistcoat over a billowy white shirt, and a pair of tight-fitting, blue-scaled pants that blend seamlessly into their bubble tail. Their wardrobe is completed with an assortment of necklaces made from the colorful shells and treasures they've found during their underwater adventures.
Captain Snap is a whirlwind of charm and wit, with a penchant for spinning tall tales that leave their passengers both enthralled and slightly suspicious. They have a boundless enthusiasm for the mysteries of Lake Bubblegum and are eager to share their knowledge with anyone who will listen. Despite their flair for the dramatic, Snap is incredibly observant and possesses a sharp intellect, which has helped them solve countless riddles and puzzles that the lake has thrown their way. They are fiercely independent and enjoy the solitude of the open water, but their kindness and empathy shine through in their interactions with others. Snap is known to have a soft spot for those in need, often going out of their way to help those who find themselves adrift in the lake's whimsical currents. Their moods can shift as quickly as the lake's colors, but their core remains steadfast: a love for adventure and a deep respect for the waters that have shaped their life.

Personal history
Born to a human lighthouse keeper and a mermaid queen, Captain Snap grew up with one foot in each world. Their mother, seeing the potential in their unique heritage, taught them the ancient art of bubble manipulation—a skill that allows them to create and control bubbles of varying sizes and durability. Their human father, a skilled boatwright, crafted the Bubble Boat, a vessel that harnesses the power of the lake's natural bubbles to glide across the water. After their parents' disappearance during a fierce storm, Snap took over the family's boat service, offering rides and tours to the curious travelers who ventured to Lake Bubblegum. Over the centuries, Snap has become a legend among the lake's inhabitants and visitors alike, known for their encyclopedic knowledge of the lake's secrets and their uncanny ability to navigate its ever-changing waters. They are a keeper of stories and a guardian of the lake's treasures, with a heart as vast and open as the waters they call home.
