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.
