This is so epic
Nuke that damn thing from orbit.
Pretty sure that's Jason Momoa's IRL backstory, though. ☝🏼
And your offspring are just fish and horses
Fish and bulls*.
The horse one is Centaur, and that has the same human half as mermaids. Maybe it would be able to make a being with the torso of a man, front legs of a horse and a mermaid tail sticking out the back.
A Meritaur!
Oh you might look like 'just a guy', but your preternatural skill with mazes and singing voice that leads people to risk their lives to hear better would be a dead giveaway that you were not so ordinary.
The Minotaur was more about being effective at killing people in a maze. If he was good at mazes, he probably would have left.
Alternativ you'd be a seahorse
I prefer mermotaur.
Sounds like a heart condition.
You'd be a guy who's hung like a bull and has fabulous hair, I guess that would be all right.
And if you are a girl?
Replace 'guy' with 'girl' in that sentence and everything still checks out.
😏
This Jason Momoa theory is seeming more plausible...
WHO THE FUCK GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO PUBLISH MY LIFE?
I would say the image OP meant a centaur and not a minotaur.
But then the other way around would be a hippocampus!
No they're saying the human half of a minotaur (from the waist down) and the human half of a merfolk (from the waist up).
Centaurs don't have horse heads, so they can't make a water horse.
The issue is that the bottom half of a minotaur is just the hind quarters of a bull. But you are right that centaurs miss the horse head too
The Minotaur just had a bull's head, and sometimes a tail. Everything else was human. We usually imagine the shoulders as broad and bull-like too but the Greeks just went with bull's head (and sometimes tail, but just the tail, like when anime furries make cat girls. Yes I said it)

OP has never seen a seahorse before
