Orpheus

Orpheus is a police officer from the Anegashima Police Department. Originally a human, Orpheus was cursed and became an antropomorphized dolphin. He's able to change into full dolphin at will. The curse also enabled his right hand to nulify the powers of any mermain with just a touch, making him a major weapon for the police on the struggle against the sea gangs and the Cult of the Sea.

Appearance
Like his partner, Boyle Samejima, Orpheus is usually seen wearing a white shirt, necktie and black trousers. He keeps the tip of his necktie on the pocket of his shirt. Due to a curse, Orpheus is an antropomorphized dolphin. He has the body of a very large human but his head is that of a dolphin. He also has several scars on the top of his head.

Personality
Orpheus is very friendly and easy going. He's somewhat secretive about his curse and what he knows about the Cult of the Sea. He's very protective of his adopted daughter, Chako, to the point of punching Samejima just because he was smoking in front of her.

Relationships
Orpheus joined the force on the same day as Tome Jinguji and was apparently in a relationship with her at some point. He is currently partners with Boyle Samejima, whom he had a rather contentious friendship at first but they quickly came into good terms, specially when Samejima saves Chako from explosions caused by Octopus at Mr. Yamazaki's house. Boyle, Orpheus and Chako currently live together at the Marine Mobile Investigation Unit's mansion.

He became the guardian and adoptive father of Chako after rescuing her from the Cult of the Sea. He's currently working on finding Chako's missing mother.

Trivia
Orpheus is an expert mahjong player.
