If this doesn't win, I'd like to use this design Anyways this male is based off of bones and death.
Backstory: When Bonefish was born, his parents were loners. They had been exiled all their lives for unknown reasons and met each other. When they had their son, they promised to keep him safe. Safe from the dangerous world they brought him in. However, that promise was not well kept. When Bonefish was merely 2 years old, he and his parents were attacked by sharks. Bonefish narrowly escaped by hiding in the seaweed and sand till the sharks passed, leaving his parent’s destroyed bodies behind. Bonefish was way too young to leave the den they were attacked outside of, and he was too little to move his parent’s bodies, so he hid in the little underwater cave they found home. Over time, bottom feeder fish and other aquatic animals came, leaving just his parent’s bones in the sand. Eventually he couldn’t stand to see his parent’s bones outside the den and took a chance and swam off as quickly as he could to find a new den far away from the underwater cave, where his parent’s bones still lay today.
