Personality
Edit
The mermaids as a whole appear fun-loving, and do not seem to have any real cares or troubles besides Captain Hook. They are all infatuated with Peter Pan, and, similar to Tinker Bell, can't stand another girl having his attention.
Appearances

Peter Pan
Edit
The Mermaids first appear in the movie when Peter Pan takes Wendy to meet them. When the Mermaids see Peter, they welcome him back to their domain and ask him to tell them a story about his adventures. He begins to tell them about the time he cut off Captain Hook's hand and threw it to the crocodile, but then the Mermaids notice that Peter has brought a girl, Wendy, and ask him what she's doing, clearly jealous. The Mermaids then try to get Wendy to swim with them and begin pulling her into the water, but she tells them she can't and tries to break away. Then the Mermaids splash her with water causing her to become even angrier to the point that she is about to throw a shell at them, but Peter stops Wendy, telling her that the Mermaids were only having fun, to which the Mermaids casually reply that they were "only trying to drown her." Then, Peter spots Hook and Smee rowing nearby in a rowboat, and warns Wendy that Hook is present. Upon overhearing Hook's name, the Mermaids become frightened, prompting them to jump back into the water to hide from Hook. They don't appear throughout the rest of the film.
Return to Neverland
Edit
The Mermaids make a cameo in the sequel but don't have a speaking role like in the previous film. When Peter and Jane are flying in Neverland, the Mermaids grab Jane from Peter and begin dressing her in mermaid clothes. Just as one of them is about to pour water on Jane's head, Peter scoops her back up and causes the Mermaid to pour the water on two more of the Mermaids. The Mermaids don't appear throughout the rest of the film after this.
