Personality[]
Aquamarine is a gorgeous mermaid who surfaces accidentally during a storm. She is very girly and kind. She is also eager to prove to her father that true love exists; this showed that she's ambitious. She is creative and bubbly, and very confident. She is well-traveled. She also is naïve being she falls in love with Raymond at first sight and expected him to love her in return. However, Aqua is a precious gem that you rarely find in the ocean; she is the best mermaid friend you could have. She loves to go swimming with Claire and Hailey while Claire goes freediving and Hailey goes scuba diving.
Role in the Movie[]
Aquamarine escaped her father, the king of the seas, to find love on the land. She used one of the tidal waves her father created to end up on dry land. She met two girls Claire and Hailey who agreed to help her on her quest in change of a wish. Apparently, when a mortal helps a mermaid, they are entitled to any wish they want. Aquamarine saw Raymond, who was also the girls' crush, and fell in love with him at first sight. Aquamarine used the magazines the girls gave her to seduce Raymond, which wasn't very successful at first, but in time Raymond started to notice Aquamarine. They went on a several dates, and fell in love. Cecilia Banks, who also wanted Raymond for herself, found out that Aquamarine was a mermaid and slept in the water tower. She called the media, to expose her, but a local man Leonard saved Aquamarine before she was caught on tape. Aquamarine had arranged a meeting with Raymond to find out how he feels for her exactly on a jetty. But Cecilia intervened and pushed Aquamarine over the ledge into the water, Aquamarine transformed into a mermaid, and was dragged to open sea in a current. Raymond was at first shocked to find out that Aquamarine was a mermaid, but still came to her rescue. Meanwhile Claire and Hailey jumped in to help Aquamarine, and agreed to give up their wish if Aquamarine could stay with them. That show of love was enough to prove to Aquamarine's father that true love exists, and he released Aquamarine. Raymond arrived, and after a little talk, he and Aquamarine agreed to date further.
Trivia[]
- Like Madison in Splash, Aquamarine was decided to be more "realistic" by being bare-breasted (with her hair covering her chest); rather than give her a cliche seashell bikini top like Ariel. The reasoning behind the choice s that unlike humans, who developed a sense of modesty/shame, merpeople had always lived in the sea with other aquatic life, so the concept of incident exposure would be unknown to them; giving Aqua a more "natural" look. Hence why Aqua isn't shy after appearing naked in her human form to the girls.
