Stethacanthus as a box for valentines ... does this count as #paleoart?

I wonder if I took pictures of Helicoprion last year ...🦈
A Valentines Day card box skinned as Stethacanthus, the bootscraper "shark" (closer to ratfish, honestly)

It was similar to the hidden fish mechanic we got in Dawntrail, but instead of appearing on Lure use, it was a flat massive chunk of GP.

Lead to fun decision-centric fishing for fish like Opabinia or Stethacanthus.

Actually add 6 more (I didn't realise that some x.5 fish counted as legendaries): Charibenet, Sea Butterfly, The Unconditional, Drepanaspis, Xenacanthus, and Stethacanthus

Finally, there were these gentle giants full of mysteries to offer!
A concept for a large leviathan-level mob called Mangoroa. Inspired by the goblin shark, it is a gentle giant hundreds of years old that inhabits the abyssal depths of the ocean. With its translucent body, it is possible to see its slightly glowing skeleton in the darkness. A magical reef inhabits its back, with rare fish and resources. On its dorsal fin, there is a poisonous spine with mysterious properties. A glowing worm inhabits its blind eye, inspired by what happens to Greenland sharks. It is said that anyone who dares to remove the worm from its eyes will cause it so much pain that it will emit a strange cry that hypnotizes the fauna that lives on its back, using them to attack whatever threatens it. A concept for a large leviathan-level mob called Dakuwaqa. Inspired by the Stethacanthus shark, it is a legendary golem thousands of years old that inhabits submerged ancient ruins. No one knows who created it or what its purpose was, only that it wanders aimlessly, protecting the ruins of monolithic citadels that now lie at the bottom of the sea. Its body appears to be made of a metal as golden as gold, and magical crystal scales adorn its back and snout. Its hollow interior houses a mysterious and prehistoric biome, which may contain secrets about its own existence.

Flocking! This was time we speculated on what we hope gets discovered in 2026.

For today's #fanficfriday, a future focused question:

Are there any fics that you really hope to write/finish this year? Concepts, drafts, or in progress fics all count!

Share excerpts if you want, just tag NSFW if applicable 💜

Finally, I caught a Stethacanthus...!!!
It took me a while to figure out the exact conditions after getting misled by all kinds of guide sites, so it's been almost a full year since I started targeting them... it felt like forever.

imagine actually being able to catch a sculptor: the stethacanthus experience
“TWO sculptors?” aemilia despaired. “i can't even catch one.” “two sculptors.” watt repeated. “it’s a fish o’ legend, lass. you can’t expect to just dip yer pole in the water and immediately pull up the loch seld monster.” “fair enough, old man.” she grinned.

Close-ups of the individual panels/floors.

Each level reads from bottom to top, left to right, and represents a different stage of Earth history. Can't remember why I never colored them (either I didn't want to after coloring the background or just ran out of time.)

It's been a bit, but I'm back to trophy fishing in FFXIV, and I'm remembering how bad some of these were.

I wish Stethacanthus a very special Go Fuck Yourself. uwu
