There are innumerable prehistoric sea creatures that could be used as motivation for fishman characters, but are ultimately extinct and thus don't exist currently. That doesn't mean to say that they don't exist in the one piece world.
What i'm getting at is... would it be possible for a person to be a fishman species that is an ancient aquatic fish (like a water dinosaur). I assume it would just cost extra traits, if it were allowed.
I know this has been brought up before. Personally i've seen no evidence as the only species that could qualify as an exctinct fishman species in one piece was an animal that was merely thought extinct but rediscovered years ago. And nah there probably wouldn't be an increase in traits outside of the normal trait costs(size would factor in for many of them though i'm guessing)

Size doesn't mean anything though, they're just fishmen, not fishgiants. We don't allow giants, some ancient species that's huge will simply like whitebeard size.
Fishmen are judged by 2 criterea. 1 it has to be an existing species and 2, it has to be a fish. Your trait cost is ultimately always depending on what features said species has. You can opt out of some features as well. But "ancient" fishman or even "mythical" fishman isn't really an issue so long as you have the required traits to afford the species and it makes sense.

Actually Ice we do allow people to be larger than 14 feet with a trait. We just don't let it get to the size of giants. The traits are common to find on npcs.
