Submariner — Sea Life

Ember Keel Eel

uncommon

6–16 SP

A hot-striped eel that nests near wrecked fireboxes and warm cannon slag. Its keel glows like banked coals when it twists in the net.

Emberbelly Fry

common

1–3 SP

A warm-colored fry with a belly that glows like banked coals in the tank. It is small, mild, and strangely comforting on cold watches.

Emberfin Pikelet

uncommon

6–16 SP

A sharp little pike whose orange fins glow like embers under black water. It strikes above its size and roasts with a faint smoky sweetness.

Emberglass Cuttlefish

uncommon

6–16 SP

A glassy cuttlefish full of ember-bright specks. Its body looks fragile, but it vanishes in a smoky burst when startled.

Emberglass Searobin

uncommon

6–16 SP

The Emberglass Searobin spreads warm orange fins like blown glass cooling in dark water. It skitters near hot stone and tastes faintly sweet when baked.

Emberstripe Vent Fry

uncommon

6–16 SP

Emberstripe Vent Fry school around thermal cracks, flashing orange whenever the water turns hot enough to boil a careless glove. Their scales hold a faint mineral heat after capture, making them useful to cooks, engineers, and anyone trying to prove the deep has a sense of humor.

Eyeball Anchovy

common

1–3 SP

One oversized eye watches the hook, the deck, and something standing just behind the crew.

Eyeball Bubblefish

common

0–2 SP

One enormous harmless eye watches every hook with comic suspicion.

First Class Fluke

common

1–3 SP

A pale fluke traced with faint gold filigree, somehow both muddy and elegant. It hides flat against wreck silt until the pattern gives it away.

Flagshadow Fluke

common

1–3 SP

A sandy fluke whose back carries dark blotches like torn flags. It vanishes against wreck canvas until a hungry crew gets lucky.

Flickerstripe Tomcod

common

1–3 SP

A small tomcod with broken pale stripes that flicker when it turns. The flash is not magic, but it is enough to make the net crew blink.

Flooded Orchestra Anchovy

common

1–3 SP

Thin dark lines run along this anchovy like ruined strings. It schools in nervous rhythm around old music-room debris, then crisps nicely in a pan.

Foamcap Mullet

common

1–3 SP

A squat mullet with pale speckles across its head like sea foam. It grazes on soft algae mats and reacts to danger by pretending very hard to be a rock.

Foamglass Goby

common

1–3 SP

A squat goby dusted with frosted blue-white speckles. It lives where wave foam and pressure-glass collect in quiet pockets.

common

1–3 SP

A silver herring marked by a white line like sea foam. It gathers near submarine vents where bubbles confuse predators.

common

1–3 SP

A flat dab with pale bubbles around its mouth and sand-colored fins. It looks unimpressed by capture, cooking, and most human decisions.

Fogscale Pollocklet

common

1–3 SP

A small gray pollock that seems dusted in sea fog even after it is hauled aboard. Galley crews like it because it flakes easily and never starts arguments about seasoning.

Fossil Script Coelacanth

uncommon

6–16 SP

A living relic marked with pale spiral glyphs across ancient stone-blue scales. The historian will say the markings are older than the voyage logs, then ask everyone not to eat the evidence.

Frostbite Mackerel

uncommon

4–12 SP

A cold-running mackerel with white-cracked scales that hiss when they hit a warm pan. Its flesh holds a clean brine snap, provided the cook keeps the first thaw slow.

Frostgill Snapper

uncommon

6–16 SP

Frostgill Snappers breathe in cold seams that crust their gill plates with pale mineral rime. Once warmed, the fillets turn sweet and flaky, making them a welcome catch after too many salvage scraps.

Frostpulse Lanternfish

uncommon

5–16 SP

A cold-lit lanternfish that pulses blue-white when music or sonar touches it. The glow fades after capture, leaving a clean, crisp meat prized by careful cooks.

Frostwisp Flounder

common

0–3 SP

Cold white wisps curl from its fins and dissolve before reaching the surface.

Galley Butterfish

common

1–3 SP

A soft gold butterfish prized by cooks because it stays tender even after a rough pressure boil.

Galleystripe Mullet

common

1–3 SP

A plump mullet marked with warm copper stripes that look almost seasoned already. Galleystripe Mullets are dependable eating, the sort of catch that makes a long voyage feel less like punishment.

Gaugefin Minnow

common

1–3 SP

A tiny minnow with needle-thin fins that twitch like compass needles around active sonar. Navigators keep one in a jar when the instruments start telling jokes.

Gaugewhisker Goby

common

1–3 SP

This nervous little goby twitches its copper whiskers whenever pressure changes ripple through the water. Scientists joke that it is less a meal than a living instrument panel with fins.

Ghost Current Manta

rare

30–58 SP

A pale manta that rides currents no gauge can prove exist. It leaves the water behind it colder and strangely quiet.

Ghost Lantern Coelacanth

legendary

85–180 SP

Ghost Lantern Coelacanths are old enough to make the ocean feel young. Their rib lanterns burn with cold blue light long after capture, and crews whisper that each glow marks a route once taken by something far larger than the sub.

Ghostcap Goby

common

0–2 SP

A pale dome fin sits over its head like a drifting spectral hood.

Ghostcurrent Marlin

rare

26–60 SP

A pale marlin that appears where two invisible currents cross, then vanishes with a needle-bright flick of its bill. Navigators trust it more than charts in trench country, because Ghostcurrents only leap where the water still remembers a path.

Ghostplate Halibut

rare

24–58 SP

A rare pale halibut with armorlike plates that reflect light in ghostly sheets. It hides flat against wreck floors, waiting for the world to forget it has a mouth.

Ghostreef Angler

rare

25–55 SP

This pale angler drifts through coral ruins with a cold blue lure. More than one pirate followed that light and found only teeth.

Ghostsheet Flounder

common

0–2 SP

Thin white fins drape over this flounder like a bargain-bin ghost costume.

Ghostwake Cuttlefish

uncommon

5–15 SP

A pale cuttlefish that swims in the wake of ships that are not there. Its ink blooms into brief shapes of sails, bones, and wrong directions.

Gilded Ballroom Coelacanth

rare

28–60 SP

This ancient coelacanth wears chandelier-bright markings across midnight scales. The crew jokes it is overdressed until it opens its mouth.

Glacierglass Ray

uncommon

6–16 SP

A ray with wings like fractured blue glass. Its tissue chills sample trays through gloves, giving scientists a beautiful reason to complain.

Glassfin Needlefish

uncommon

5–14 SP

Glassfin Needlefish are almost invisible until the sub lights catch the blue line of organs running through their bodies. Crews prize them for their clear fins and needle bones, which flex without snapping and make excellent calibration samples for pressure-sensitive gear.

Glassjaw Current Eel

uncommon

6–16 SP

The Glassjaw Current Eel swims with a blue-clear jaw that flickers when the sub engines hum. It is edible, but every bite feels like chewing a storm warning.

Glasspocket Tetra

common

1–3 SP

A translucent tetra with a glowing pocket of trapped air tucked behind its ribs. The science bay uses it as a quick pressure sample before the cook claims it for a delicate broth.

Gloomgill Gudgeon

common

0–2 SP

Dark violet gills pulse softly when cold currents cross a graveyard reef.

Grand Staircase Goby

common

1–3 SP

A squat little goby with gold scrollwork and mahogany bands across its sides, the Grand Staircase Goby looks far too fancy for the mud it lives in. It nests near ornate wreckage and steals tiny polished chips for shelter. Historians call it evidence of the deep preserving memory; hungry crew call it dinner with airs.

Gravebell Gourami

common

0–3 SP

Tiny bells hang from its feelers and ring only when the sonar goes silent.

Gravebubble Sprat

common

1–3 SP

A smoky sprat with pale bubbles trapped under its belly plates. Those bubbles hold tiny samples of cold bottom water, which makes the fish a snack with lab value.

Gravepetal Gourami

common

1–3 SP

Dusky petal fins open around it like flowers left at a grave.

Graveyard Goby

common

0–2 SP

This gloomy bottom-dweller hides among drowned headstones and watches passing subs in silence.

Graveyard Grunion

common

0–3 SP

It gathers among little stone markers whenever the tide turns cold.

Grayglass Mackerel

common

1–3 SP

A mackerel with smoky glass bands over its back. It is sturdy, common, and exactly as unimpressed by danger as it looks.

Grayline Sprat

common

1–3 SP

A thin sprat with a soft gray line running straight down its side. It arrives in quick flashes and leaves behind very little drama.

Grayvent Smelt

common

1–3 SP

A smoky smelt that drifts near low thermal vents, wearing the color of ash and cold metal. It is small, quick, and better fresh.

Gunwale Goby

common

1–2 SP

A blunt goby with a dark stripe like a ship rail and rust-colored freckles. It clings to wreck edges until startled directly into a bucket.

Gutterlight Goby

common

1–3 SP

A goby that follows faint light along wreck gutters and drainage seams. It is usually the first fish seen after a hatch opens.

Harborcoin Minnow

common

1–3 SP

A bright little minnow whose round scales flash like loose change under dock lights. It is common fare, but crews still count a net full of them as a small mercy on long voyages.

Harvestmoon Hake

common

1–3 SP

A golden full-moon spot glows above its silver belly.

Hatchlight Minnow

common

1–3 SP

A minnow with yellow side markings like tiny lit hatch windows. Deckhands say catching one means the route home is open, though the cook says it mostly means breakfast.

Hatchstripe Codlet

common

1–3 SP

A small cod with square markings like tiny brass hatches along its side. It noses through bulkhead shadows and tends to appear where a safe opening is hiding behind debris.

Haunted Haddock

common

0–2 SP

A pale ghost-shaped blotch drifts across its side whenever nobody is watching closely.

Haunted Kelp Kipper

common

1–3 SP

A kipper with ragged kelp-green fins and a glow in its gills. It tastes faintly smoky even uncooked, as if it has already been through one haunting.

Hauntfin Herring

common

1–3 SP

Its transparent fins trail a second behind every movement.

Headless Horse Mackerel

uncommon

7–16 SP

Orange ghostfire races before this silver mackerel, leaving its head hidden in the blaze.

Hexfin Barracuda

uncommon

6–15 SP

Glowing runes race across its fins before every sudden burst of speed.

Hexscale Eel

uncommon

7–16 SP

A black-purple eel crossed with glowing hexagonal scale seams. Its body conducts faint current in tidy patterns, like somebody taught lightning to keep records.

Hollowthorn Rockfish

uncommon

6–16 SP

Hollow black spines whistle softly as current passes through them.

Hullkiss Minnow

common

1–3 SP

A small minnow marked by dark scrapes from brushing too close to moving metal. Finding one near the hull means the lights are attracting dinner again.

Iceberg Glass Minnow

common

1–3 SP

This tiny minnow looks half-frozen even in black water, with glassy fins that fracture lantern light into pale blue shards. Crews keep one eye on it because schools of them often drift ahead of colder currents. Scientists like the specimen; cooks like that it still fries cleanly once it stops trying to be an ice cube.

Iceberg Shadow Shiner

common

1–3 SP

A small shiner with jagged white flanks like reflected ice. Its schools gather where the water turns suddenly colder, making it useful before it becomes dinner.

Infernal Jack Angler

rare

28–60 SP

Its enormous pumpkin lure opens into a second blazing mouth.

Iongill Mackerel

uncommon

6–16 SP

A swift mackerel with violet ion-bright gills. It tastes faintly mineral and arrives in bursts whenever the instruments start to buzz.

Ironbelly Stickleback

common

1–3 SP

A prickly stickleback with a dark metallic belly and more confidence than mass. It rattles in a bucket like loose screws.

Irongill Barracuda

uncommon

7–16 SP

A barracuda with dark metal plates around its gills. It bites hooks in half often enough to make the crew take it personally.

Ironveil Gulper

rare

22–60 SP

A rare gulper fish draped in dark metallic skin that folds over its jaw like a torn veil. It swallows bait, hook, and warning all at once, leaving only a dull iron taste in the bucket.

Jack-o-Lantern Goby

common

1–3 SP

A warm belly glow shines through three scale gaps like a carved grin.

Jack-o-Lantern Minnow

common

1–3 SP

A bright little minnow whose scales glow like a carved lantern in the dark. Galley crews like it for quick pan meals, while pilots follow its orange flicker when the harbor lights go weird.
