W: More fish-species

[solar]

I'm probably not the only one who would like to see more fishes in the MUD. I created this topic so that people who feel the same way can post their ideas for new fishes here. There's always a chance that Idles will take a look at what goes on and might add more fishes if enough people support this idea, or post their own ones.

Speculation: So far the fishes you can fish are all 'mundane', so fictional fantasy-fishes might not get implemented. Also there are no seas (or oceans) in Icesus, so big whale-like creatures might not get implemented either. Climate might not support fishes that are generally found in warm (tropical) waters.

Suggestion: We are in need of a fish very much like sturgeon, so the biggest fish record at astug wouldn't just be a clone from sturgeon list. Crabs would also be nice additions.
Perhaps some sort of octopi, eels and squids might make their way into the MUD as well?

Another suggestion: deep-lake terraintype to the great lakes that dominate the south-southeast part of the valley.

what about some aquatic species. or semi-aquatic so they can go underwater and on land, it would be fun to hunt fish in their invironment.

I did some searching and found out this thing. It's pretty nice.

what about some of the extinct fish species? some of these would be a lot of fun to fish, you catch it, then you fight it. maybe those fish would be deep underground

I think it'd be pretty neat to be able to go underwater. There could be equipment/magics to support that as well as races that love the water. Then we could implement spear fishing hehe. That'd add some danger to fishing as well.

There is a place right now where you can go underwater, including a way to stay alive without drowning. However, it's for higher players than me because I always get killed.
