...realistic, it's sci-fi. LONG question? So this is a new story idea of mine.
A creature who has no age was created in a lab after nearly forty years of development. This creature is a creature with cells made of the element Hg, more commonly known as quicksilver (mercury). They still carry out normal cell functions, but their membranes and organs are all completely made of mercury, and they are triangular, so that they fit together perfectly, but when they separate, they come apart clean. The cells act together, flowing like cardiac muscle (how it makes our heart beat all together using the pacemaker within it) within a human body.
However, these cells can morph to adjust their shape, and their normally toxic inhalations to the human lungs and skin have been diluted by their ability to change scents, however, it is still deadly to ingest, meaning the girl can never touch any openings of any human body, such as the eyes, mouth, nose or open wounds.
The cells can split and merge back together at will (when the creature controls them) and they will all be exact copies of the last. Meaning: she can split her body to make clones, or merge them back together without changing the individual shape of her body (Ex: when she splits her body, each of the clones will not be very tiny.) She can also change her body to make it smaller (the size of a mouse), or larger (the size of an elephant) very, very rapidly. Each of the cells, controlled by their own nuclei, work together to change their pigment, weight, texture, and solidity to make themselves appear realistic. This is all cooridnated by the girl's "pacemaker" of sorts, called _________ (I need help with this). The pacemaker is no more than the size of a pea and it controls everything from the creature's pigments, textures, emotions, feelings, thoughts, dreams, etc... it's like a little tiny brain implanted deep within the creaature's body. It is surrounded by a casing of mercury that is bonded to its surface so that it won't float and will remain deep inside of the creature's body no matter what form it takes. The "pacemaker" is also what the lab uses to keep a close eye on the creature and control it.
As for its gender, the creature can be either, although its pacemaker was not as compatible with male genes because it always showed traits of anger and violence, so the lab was forced to make it a female. Which also fits because I found this sign that is literally the sign of mercury, the planet:

And here are a list of all of the powers that the creature gets out of being made of mercury:
- because everything with a lighter density than itself floats on mercury (including iron), the creature has super strength.
- no matter how many times the mercury gets spilt up or how small the piece is that is separated from the pacemaker, the pieces can always find each other because they have a sort of pull toward each other.
- the creature can divide itself into clones
- the creature can mimick anything, including non-living objects, because it does not have the need to breathe or carry out normal functions at a bodily level. Only at a cellular level.
- the creature can breathe underwater because at a cellular level, oxygen atoms are able to be split from water and taken in by the cells.
- the creature is less dense than water and can walk on the bottom of oceans, pools, lakes, etc...
- the creature's body itself can not be dilluted or separated (such as: water can be separated into droplets when thrown in the air. Mercury does not.)
- the creature can not feel pain, it has no nerve receptors
- the creature's skin can deflect everything from bullets to swords and knives because its skin is not damaged by sharp objects
Downsides:
- the creature can not swim or jump in water and moves very slowly.
- the creature can not feel anything whatsoever; it has no nerve receptors.
- the creature can not eat
- the creature can not withstand harsh temperatures
- the creature's pacemaker allows it to be easily controlled
- the creature's cells are destroyed by sulfur power
- highly reflective. Its glow can be seen even through the protective pigment, giving it a sort of glossy shine in the sunlight that looks dangerously beautiful. This way it can be told apart fro
