Introduction

Diving into the realm of aquatic wonders, fishes fill docile life to all of Eden’s many oceans. They are found in a variety of patterns and sizes and are incredibly haste animals that can outswim just about anything undersea, and if not keeping a diligent eye, they can disappear in an instant.

Description

Fish are vastly diverse animals possessing an expansive array of colors upon their scale-like skin. They have laterally thin bodies with fins sticking out to help them balance and steer in the ocean and have gills on each side to breathe through. They also have a slimy and slippery texture that makes them nearly impossible to grab with human hands and an aroma similar to the salty scent of the sea. Fishes have a decent range of tastes, from mild and sweet to rich and strong. This, alongside their abundance, makes them a great food source for all nations near the shore. Although fish are capable of creating sound, most people do not know due to the serenity of it, emitting a calming and passive presence in their silence.

Behavior

Fish are often found in groups known as schools to better defend their territory and reduce friction to swim more efficiently. The diet of fish primarily consists of eggs, algae, seaweed, and sometimes other fish. They rely on suction feeding, or quickly opening their mouth to consume food to halt any water from passing through. Commonly, fish are found doing what makes them happy, which is exploring or hiding underneath vegetation or logs. They also have a vivid sense of danger and can easily tell when someone is nearby, usually when they see a moving shadow or water particle displacement. If fish feel threatened, they’ll have an immediate reaction of swimming away, and it’s nearly impossible to pursue them afterward.

Habitat

Fish are often found where sealife is most abundant. Coral reefs, salt marshes, and meadows are also common places. It is more likely than not that you will discover some species of fish when glancing down at any body of water, However, some species are bound to certain oceans in Eden.

In the Glass Sea, there are mackerels, brills, salmon, anchovies, and plaice. Shellfish, mainly squids, prawns, and black oysters, are also present.

In the Alban Ocean, there are bluefin tuna, cod, salmon, herrings, eels, bass, and mullets. Shellfish, mainly lobsters and crabs, are also present.

In the Coral Shores, there are tropical fish, like guppies and swordtails. Shellfish, mainly cloysters, are also present.

In the Sepherum Sea, there are yellowfin tuna, redfin tuna, cod, sardines, and swordfish. Shellfish, mainly clams, shrimps, and mussels, are also present. Also, there are two mythical species that dwell in this sea called Scorpionfish and Globefish.

Abilities

Being a tiny animal, fish can use their agility to elude a mundane attack and swim away.

Drops

- Raw fish

The corpse of a killed fish. It drops one per each dead fish. It can be eaten after being scaled, filleted, and cooked.

 == Introduction ==
-The sea is often renowned for its mysterious and treacherous inhabitants, and the sea serpent is certainly no exception. These monstrous beasts pose terror to fishermen and ocean travelers alike, and one should hope to never come in contact with them due to their hostile nature. The translucent ocean obscures these beings, so one can never know when they might appear. A serene trip in a boat can quickly evolve into a disastrous nightmare in the presence of one of these petrifying serpents. With the uproar of splashes and rumbling growl, it presents an alarming introduction to all in its vicinity.

 == Description ==
-Sea serpents consist of merely two parts, the head and the body. Its head is similar to that of a dragon with a triangular shape and protruding mouth with layers of sharp, carnivore teeth. A fierce gaze can be seen in the serpent’s eyes, both located behind the mouth. A lengthy, tentacle-like tongue sits within the mouth and is often seen extended outwards during a serpent’s roar. The body is directly connected to the head and elongates roughly 25 meters in a cylindrical shape. Near the end, it gradually narrows and eventually concludes at a single point, serving as a tail for the beast. Running down its body are many dense scales. They can range from a royal blue to a seaweed green color and are hardened for defense. However, extending down the underside of the serpent, on its belly, are softer and more flexible scales in a dark ivory color. The pliability assists them for digestive purposes, and they don’t have a color range, unlike their other scales. There is also a long, prickly fin that runs horizontally off its head and down its spine for balance and steering. The sheer size of this beast creates a looming atmosphere for all that may come in its path, but its most formidable aspect overall is the sea serpent’s roar. A cacophony of deep and menacing racket alongside a guttural groan, as if water was rushing down its throat and exasperating it. The commotion can reach eight kilometers from the serpent, and all sealife dwelling nearby won’t think twice about swimming away. The breath of a sea serpent bears another frightening quality. It reeks of a concoction of decaying meat and muscle with a salty, oceanic scent from all the marine life it had consumed. Ripped pieces of the serpent could be eaten, though its taste would resemble eating a normal snake, with a resilient and chewy texture and a gamey flavor.

 == Behavior ==
-Sea serpents do not travel in packs and are always found alone or with a mate. This is due to their hostile nature, ensuring no other beast traverses its habitat. Moreover, it is rare to see a serpent leave an area, and if you ever spot one, it will likely dwell in the same spot years from then. Serpents do not travel often and will typically keep to their own space unless their home is ruined or lacks food, in which case they will migrate to another portion of the sea, and potentially have to fight the singular serpent there for its expanse instead. Departing its home for a mate will only occur once every three years, and will merely include no more than two offspring. Since the sea serpent is a cold-blooded creature, it conserves energy much more easily and can go weeks or months without food, though it is not preferred by them. Pervasively, serpents will have a weekly cycle for hunts. They are aggressive eaters, feasting on anything that will fit in their mouths, which usually ends up being squids or large fish. Commonly, serpents will swim to the sunlight zone where fish are abundant and can be effortlessly picked off. This is also when serpents are most commonly spotted by people. When prey is discovered, it will disconcertingly circle them to learn its defense mechanism and decide when to strike. As the circle progressively gets smaller, the serpent may find itself head-to-tail, eventually utilizing its fin to steer at the prey and lunge with a swallowing bite. However, if a serpent meets one of its kind or another large predator, it will unleash a thunderous roar that deafens the sea. A tumultuous noise that shudders the waters and will, more often than not, scare the beast away. Above water, serpents also have an intriguing way of fending themselves and attacking travelers. It will begin by peeping its head above the surface and inspecting its surroundings for anything living. When ready, it will dive forth and bite. If it misses, or nothing is obstructing the ocean’s surface, it will continue the dive as it lunges deep into the ocean, leaving its body above water for an extra moment. It can also use its tail, once it finally reaches air, to swat down at the opponent again, effectively slapping them before it precedes in the water with the rest of its body. If a serpent prevails in all its combat, its lifespan can range up to ~250 years depending on its health.

 == Habitat ==
-Northern serpents have a blue hue and dwell in the Glass Sea. Southern serpents are found in the Alban Ocean and contain a greener hue. They are widely spread throughout these seas and far apart from one another, residing at the bottom of the ocean. This makes it unfeasible to discover one by search, and it will remain a mystery when one appears. This typically happens during a hunt, when the serpent rises to the surface in search of fish and may cross sight of a person.

 == Abilities ==
-The serpent dives with a crushing bite. The serrated teeth jab before its head proceeds forth and past the opponent to turn around in preparation for another strike. (2D2+2). A serpent may choose to attack with its head if it is not hungry or can't accomplish the range for a bite. It will lunge just like a bite, but use the top of its head and stiff scales to scrape the opponent. (2D2+2). The serpent rises above the ocean surface just to dive back inside. The airborne body still above, rushes to the head before only the tail remains above. Then, the tail lashes downwards at an unsuspecting opponent, proceeding to the ocean afterward.
