FISH!

I'm getting far too much amusement out of this than I probably should. I went to the boffer LARP Dying Kingdoms yesterday and came into possession of a fish. A returning fish.

Let me explain. Two games previous I read a book that was not meant for Fish nor Man. A squid guy had come up to the eating area (it was an overnight game) with the book and several of us started talking to him. The book the squid guy, Hissk, said it was not for man nor fish to read. Out of us there, there was a man, a half mermaid, and myself. I was neither man (going on the Eoywen line of reasoning) or fish so we decided that I should give it a read. Forsooth! It was filled with things like the Necromican complete with tentacles. Of which my poor PC is now having bad dreams about.

This game, I was given a fish. A returning fish. No matter what I did with it, it would always return to my pockets. I got it traded away to fairies, came back to my pocket. I had one of the other people who had a 'magic eating' ability try and eat it, it showed back up again. It just won't go away.

It's fantastic! I love this fish. OOC I have named it Herman. I have to get a fish prop now. Apparently it is also a live fish that is merely ... sleeping.

Fishy fish!

:D That's awesome.

It also reminds me of the song The Cat Came Back.

It does, doesn't it? But this fish comes back right away.

Sadly, Herman isn't eatable.

That's hilarious! I wonder what else it does?

The little card I got that says I have a fish says, "Properties: unknown (returning)". The guy who came up with the fish and I talked some at the after's dinner and we decided that if I take the throwing weapons skill, I can use it as a thrown weapon. (SMITE FISH). Also at an earlier point he said that my inability to breath underwater may not be an issue for much longer. So, I imagine I may get some nice buffs for my returning fish.
