This won't be relevant for a while, so feel free to take your time answering this because I'm just planning ahead here.
For the Tier 3 Fog alternate monster form, would a water nymph count as "a closely related monster type" for a Ryslig nymph? Or does the shift in element make it too drastic? Obviously I'm asking specifically for Nagisa here, since Jataro is a merperson and he'd like to be able to swim with him. He'd still be plant-based, but all of his terrestrial plants would switch to aquatic ones and some of his abilities would swap for more water-appropriate ones (like the ability to breathe underwater, that's an important one). And he'd have some other limitations to make him kind of inferior to the true water monsters. Like he wouldn't be able to swim as fast and/or dive as deep.
