Living as a semi-aquatic or aquatic creature is harder then most think. Many dangers lurk beneath the waters. Do you have what it takes to survive near the water or in the water?
You will need acception from me please!

(ok I think Ill start now. Is it ok if we start in the morning and what season should be... I think it should be spring but thats up to you.)
Pedro awoke from his light sleep. Knowing that he is 9 feet long and still growing he does seem to worry about predotors. He swam to the surface of the river to take a look around. The morning sun gazed down upon him. Most of the waterfowl were already awake. Being able to get this large he neeeded bigger prey to sustain himself.He saw a juvinile who was just a yearling. Pedro then opened his mouth and vacumed it up were he swallowed it hole. He had just found himself breakfast.

(Okay, Morning and Spring

)
Moon awoke from her sleep. Today was like any other day, she got up, preened her feathers and hopped into the pond to find breakfast. She stuck her long white neck under the water and came up with a mouthfull of weeds. A great breakfast! She swam back to the flowers and ate. The nice taste of fresh weeds fill her and she sat by the pond and relaxed.

After breakfast Pedro spotted a swan in the more shallow water eating weeds. With his belly full he head no room for swan but he thought maybe he coud say hello. He aproached the swan in the shallow water. "hello" he calmly said to the swan. However It may have been hard to hear since he was underwater and she was not.

Name:Parth
Age:47
Gender:Male
Species:SawFish
Looks:He is a 23 ft long Sawfish (Adult size) with and 8 ft Saw.The sawfish's most distinctive feature is the saw-like rostrum. The rostrum is covered with motion- and electro-sensitive pores that allow sawfish to detect movement and even heartbeats of prey hiding under the ocean floor. The rostrum serves as a digging tool to unearth buried crustaceans. When a suitable prey swims by, the normally lethargic sawfish springs from the bottom and slashes at it with its saw. This generally stuns or injures the prey sufficiently for the sawfish to devour it. Sawfish also defend themselves with their rostrum, against predators such as sharks and intruding divers. The "teeth" protruding from the rostrum are not real teeth, but modified tooth-like structures called denticles.A plate sketching of a sawfish.The body and head of a sawfish are flat, and they spend most of their time lying on the sea floor. Like rays, sawfish's mouth and nostrils are on their flat undersides. The mouth is lined with small, dome-shaped teeth for eating small fish and crustaceans; sometimes the fish swallows them whole. Sawfish breathe with two spiracles just behind the eyes that draw water to the gills. The skin is covered with tiny dermal denticles that gives the fish a rough texture. Sawfish are usually light grey or brown; the smalltooth sawfish, Pristis pectinata, appears olive green.Also inside of their mouths they have 17000 teeth which crush prey.

Personality:He is sly,Clever,experienced
History:Sawfish, also known as the Carpenter Shark, are a family of rays, characterized by a long, toothy nose extension snout. Several species can grow to approximately 7 metres or 23 feet.[2][3][4] The family as a whole is largely unknown and little studied. They are members of the sole living family Pristidae within the order Pristiformes, from the Ancient Greek pristēs (πρίστης) meaning "a sawyer" or "a saw"
Family:They live in solitude.

Moon peeked her head underwater and saw the sturgeon. She lifted her head out of the water "Hi!" she quacked. "I hope you can hear me." she said then backed up abit and peered into the water.

"Yeah I can hear you." Pedro replyed. "My names pedro by the way. Its nice to meet you" He said to her. He then peered his head out of the water which alone was much bigger than the swan.

Parth swam along the bottom of the river that interconnects to the pond swiftly,lifting up sand clouds as he swam about towards the pond for hopefully a good meal.

correction I believe sawfish are known to be saltwater fish. This is freshwater. The only freshwater thing like that is the bull shark but can only stay there for short periods of time so would not be good for this roleplay in my opionon. There are freshwater rays in tropical regions like the amazon but most rivers and ponds do not have them.
however like the bull shark can be found in both but not for long periods of time. If you were to be a sawfish in this roleplay you would need ocean as well which i do not think this roleplay includes.
also like the case of bull sharks only found in tropical areas which again i do not think this roleplay is about.
Sawfish are found in tropical and sub-tropical areas in the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific. They inhabit coastal areas such as bays and estuaries, but frequently penetrate far into rivers and major lakes such as Lake Nicaragua.
Sawfish live only in shallow, muddy water and can be found in both freshwater and saltwater. All sawfish have the ability to traverse between fresh and saltwater

No need to get upset over this. I never said you could not use it and I never said it was completely wrong. That as not me talking about your character badly that was me talking about sawfish in genral and how I think the would/would not fit into this roleplay.Also I apoligise if you mistook my words for something rude,offensive, judgmental or mean. I was not trying to be mean i was being me which is a sixteen year old with fasination for wildlife in the oceans and on land and who likes to learn everything he can about them. All that learning about nature has to be expressed somehow. Again I apoligise if you thought I was dissing your character but I was not actually trying to do that.
