“ The oceans and seas that carry us to newer lands are just as hostile as the chain of isles we’re so familiar with. ”
Triton blennies: “ Small, long, serpentine dragons similar to the Hellbender and Swoopalüng, they inhabit rocky shores and tidepools- whilst gnarly looking, they’re quite petite, but their bite can be painful. Incapable of breathing fire nor having any kind of venom, tastes good when grilled whole on a stick. ”
Brute whales: “ They’re scary. They travel in pods across all seas and make weird, incomprehensible clicking noises… they’re thought to dive down deep and battle against Krakens and marine dragons in coordinated hunts. Their fat is used for candles and fuel, while their teeth and tusks are harvested for homemade explosives. ”
Tideriding toothchurner: “ Toothchurners are the definition of gluttony. Without a doubt, they’ll bite more that they can chew, even if it means jumping onto boats and thrash violently trying to get a quick meal. Inedible, the taste of urine and sulphur is intensified in these things. ”
There’s something genuinely inspiring about seeing a bunch of fanart and microfiction and deep meta analysis about a character you’ve never heard of cross your dash, and you assume they’re from a piece of media you’re not caught up on, but later you learn that it’s some random person’s OC that six of their friends are super enthusiastic about, and they only seem omnipresent because you happen to be following like three of those six friends. There truly is no minimum viable size for a character-based fandom.
