General fish creatures:
Cloudfin Titan:
The Cloudfin Titan a giant of a fish like creature. The Cloudfin Titan is actually a whale not a fish. This creature swims mostly in the upper layers of seas and oceans, but sometimes when it is very cloudy or storming they can jump and “Swim” in the clouds. They do this every year in their migration route, eating skyalgae while being in the clouds. Their metallic blue skin with long wing/fins is very beautiful to watch during their migration, so long one doesn’t fall or shit on you.
Diet: Herbivore (Algae/skyalgae and other muck found in the upper layers of seas and oceans)
Size: 40.000 to 50.000 centimeters (40 to 50 meters)
Biome: Upper layers seas, oceans and really cloudy skies.

Sidenote: On more than one occasion has a Cloudfin flattened half a village.
Cryveil Abyssfin:
The Cryveil Abyssfin a strange ice burrowing fish. It is mostly found dead on top of glaciers, some reports have seen one “swimming” through solid ice! Their surprisingly see through black bodies don’t even leave tunnel behind. From examining a dead one I found that most of their body mass is a stomach! Why they need such a big stomach confuses me.

Deepspike Sucker:
The Deepspike Sucker a bottom feeder fish living in river sediment. A brown or black colored fish with a rather large mouth. It filters the sediment for left over organic materials.

Glassen Pike:
The Glassen Pike is a see-through pike, like glass. This fish lives in high lakes in mountains, most are concentrated in the lake glatrosjos. With the clear mountain water this fish almost becomes invisible if it didn’t eat. These pikes co-operate, in the sense that one might die to bring down big prey for the rest of the pikes. Swimming in lakes with these fish is bad idea, for they target humans as well. On the head of these fish is a rather sharp and large glass blade. With this blade they charge at a preys eyes, as they charge and jump to the eyes the blade shines light into the eyes as well, blinding unprepared prey. If a blade breaks most of the time the Glassen pike dies.

Lurklight mesmerfish:
The Lurker mesmerfish a fucking bitch of a fish. Why something like this exists at such a low tier befuddles me. THIS creature manipulates, hypnotized and deceives you. You see a flicker of light or treasure in the corner of your eye. Of course interested you go look for it, eventually finding it in some crevasse or underwater cave in the coral. When you enter you hear the most beautiful sound you ever heard and then it temps you with going closer to your “treasure”. And then when you least expect it, it latches onto your face or any orifice trying to get in or bite anything in that orifice. After I killed and brought that fish up to my ship it looked ugly, bony plating, several long tentacle like fins and an extendable mouth!
If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

This fish can launch itself at speed up to 360km/h to impale, pierce or obliterate prey/threat. Mostly living in reed like environments.

The mirejaw covers itself in sand or mud with only a few spikes and teeth sticking out. And those teeth and spikes are camouflaged as well by being mud or sand colored. If a creature with a weak enough resistance steps on one they get paralyzed by the saliva on them, then the MIrejaw swallows or slowly eats pieces of their still living prey.

The Sludgecoil is a black with yellow stripes going over its width. Most city’s tolerate these fish for they eat rot and trash cleaning it of those filth. Unfortunately this fish can become big enough to swallow an entire kobold, and on one occasion one even ate a orphan! It happened right in front of my eyes.

Wraithscale Paria:
The Wraithscale Paria a fucking annoying fish to find. This fish can literally fade out of existence to hide and flee.
