Concept design for one variety of sea people in the world of Nis. The Mao`hara are considered the Tianite of the sea due to their massive size, and would be considered another sea creature if not for their intelligence and ability to communicate with the other races. Possessing unique traits among their own, Mao`hara vary in color and size with females having larger fins while males possess longer tendrils and aray of colors during mating season (similar to the Myridian).

As they have no mouths to speak, they achieve this through creating vibrations in the water with a combination of the chemicals in their fluorescent membranes that carries their will or impression of their thoughts to the listener. This means however that they can only be communicated with in their natural habitat of which they never leave. Many travel out to sea to hear their song that travels even to the surface surrounding Aqualos Island.

Not much is known about the Mao`hara, but some among the Myridian that dive to their depths have professed to having seen much larger, terrifying forms of Mao`hara believed to be transformed through high levels of exposure to the abyss.
