As she started to pull him into the water, she revealed her true form as well as her fangs. Tamara finished the song as she took Scrum, who leaned to kiss her, and began to sink back into the water.
As Tamara continued Scrum's song, other mermaids started to appear, swimming toward the sailors in Scrum's longboat. Enchanted with Tamara's beauty, Scrum came closer to her to kiss her, despite the warnings of his colleagues. It was at that moment that Tamara continued Scrum's song. Though some of the men were afraid, including Ezekiel, who tried to kill her, Scrum tried to communicate with her. Scrum's song, My Jolly Sailor Bold, soon attracted the attention of Tamara, who appeared at the end of the longboat. As the mermaids didn't come, Gunner forced Scrum to sing so he could attract them. When the Queen Anne's Revenge arrived at Whitecap Bay, Blackbeard ordered his crew to make a trap for the mermaids, by sending them in the longboats and using his own men as a living bait. Tamara was known as a typical mermaid with siren-like qualities, which made her a dangerous threat. Not much is known about Tamara's early life.
