Also, what do the mermaids do in Pirates of the Caribbean?
The Mermaids of Whitecap Bay are minor antagonists from the live-action film Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. The mermaids must defend against Blackbeard and his crew as they attempt to capture a live mermaid to harvest the mermaid's tear demanded by the Fountain of Youth ritual.
Subsequently, question is, why did the mermaid help Jack Sparrow? Because it was she who decided Angelica and Blackbeard's respective fates, unintentionally when she cried a mermaid's tear for Philip, but intentionally when she brought Jack the Chalices to save Angelica. Syrena was featured in Terry Rossio's original script for Dead Men Tell No Tales.
Correspondingly, did the mermaid in Pirates kill the guy?
Philip is mortally wounded, but he returns to free Syrena. She helps Jack retrieve the missing chalices and gives them to him, telling him not to waste her tear. Syrena goes back to the dying Philip. She says she can save him if he asks her to.
