A '''Nyessem fish''' is a scripted item that can be acquried via the [[Mana Trawl]] mini-game as part of [[:Category:The Inquisitor|The Inquisitor]] event. It can be used as a thrown weapon, and it can support a variety of upgrades that are applied via automated certificates, also found in Mana Trawl. Fish need to be watered regulary or they can dry out.
A '''Prickly Pufferfish''' ('''Curious Sea Creature''' or '''Nyessem fish''') is a scripted item that can be acquried via the [[Mana Trawl]] mini-game as part of [[:Category:The Inquisitor|The Inquisitor]] event. It can be used as a thrown weapon, similar to a "returner" weapon in that it returns to the thrower's hand, and it can support a variety of upgrades that are applied via automated certificates, also found in Mana Trawl. Curious Sea Creatures need to be watered regularly via their container or they can dry out. If they dry out, either through neglect or manually via {{boldmono|WAVE}}, then they turn into a pouch that can be thrown.

All fish can be upgraded. Rare item drops from Mana Trawl include a rare version of the fish that already comes with several upgrades. One very useful upgrade is for the fish to no longer need to be watered. Other upgrades include sharpening the fish's spines, which increases its damage as it is thrown, although the spines dull with each thrown use.

A Prickly Pufferfish (Curious Sea Creature or Nyessem fish) is a scripted item that can be acquried via the Mana Trawl mini-game as part of The Inquisitor event. It can be used as a thrown weapon, similar to a "returner" weapon in that it returns to the thrower's hand, and it can support a variety of upgrades that are applied via automated certificates, also found in Mana Trawl. Curious Sea Creatures need to be watered regularly via their container or they can dry out. If they dry out, either through neglect or manually via WAVE, then they turn into a pouch that can be thrown.

All fish can be upgraded. Rare item drops from Mana Trawl include a rare version of the fish that already comes with several upgrades. One very useful upgrade is for the fish to no longer need to be watered. Other upgrades include sharpening the fish's spines, which increases its damage as it is thrown, although the spines dull with each thrown use.

Standard Fish

Standard fish come with limited or no upgrades.

Analyze

This is a small aquatic creature that needs daily tending, otherwise it may dry out and turn into a macabre pouch that will likely fit a few small items depending on how large it managed to grow while it was actively cared for.  In order to tend it, it must be kept in or doused with water daily.  It does not appear overly hungry, but perhaps feeding it small pieces of food might help it thrive outside its normal environment while it's alive.

You may find these VERBS helpful for tending to your nubblefin:

   inspect: Examine your water nubblefin for sharpened spines.  Because of its intricate detail,
            you may find inspecting it again for additional detail helpful.
     grind: Sharpen the spines on your water nubblefin with a suitable gemstone held in your hand.
     throw: The water nubblefin is quite sharp and dangerous.
       hug: Your water nubblefin is irresistibly cute!
       rub: Your water nubblefin is irresistibly cute!
     cover: If you would like to hide the additional detail of the creature, you can cover it.
            Covering it again will allow the option for showing additional detail.
     nudge: Nudge your water nubblefin to hide or show its spines when inspecting or showing it.
      feed: Feed your water nubblefin some food in order to keep it healthy.
      prod: Prod your water nubblefin to aid its digestion.
      wave: Makes your water nubblefin dry out instantly.

Rare Fish

Rare fish come with upgrades already applied. Their verbs are the same as standard fish.

Analyze

You analyze the confused seahorse and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

      feed: Feed your confused seahorse some food in order to keep it healthy.
      prod: Prod your confused seahorse to aid its digestion.
      wave: Makes your confused seahorse dry out instantly.

You get no sense of whether or not the seahorse may be further lightened.
