   * **Rainbow Trout** - A species of trout found in the bay, ocean, and rivers throughout Sargasso. They are a common source of food for many sea creatures and a fisherman's staple. Their iridescent scales make them easy to spot on bright, sunny days in clear water.   * **Rainbow Trout** - A species of trout found in the bay, ocean, and rivers throughout Sargasso.

   * **Sargasso Slime** - A teal green in colouration, this species of [[species/sourcia#variants|Uraxi Sourcia]] is native to the waterways and marshes of Sargasso. Individual specimens weigh around twenty kilograms and are about two feet across in any direction, and often cluster together to former larger globs in areas where they are preyed upon by slime-eaters, such as fish and other Sourcians.   * **Sargasso Slime** - A teal green in colouration, this species of [[species/sourcia#variants|Uraxi Sourcia]] is native to the waterways and marshes of Sargasso.

 +Sargasso's reputation for strange occurrences at weird hours arises from the volume of natural and unnatural stories passed among its inhabitants and tourists. Tales of things with too many legs living in undersea hovels, extra-dimensional lurkers in alleyways, occult practices, and captured footage of the just plain outlandish.
 +
 +  * **Hyperhumidity** - A natural phenomenon occurring in Sargasso's wetland areas, where rotting vegetation, balmy hot weather, and persistent rainfall combine to create air and surfaces so moist, many water-borne animals can't tell the difference. This leads to strange sights such as fish swimming through trees and tall grass. Locals in the wetlands respond to this strange occurrence by stringing nets into the air to capture an easy and fresh meal, and driving slowly in poor visibility lest they experience fishstrike.
 +  * **They Who Rides Eternal** - Revellers and party-goers throughout Southern Palms and Central View talk hushed of someone who parties harder than any mortal. The description of this anomalous individual remains consistent: dark skinned, naked from the waist, covered in cryptic tattoos, and sporting a scraggly black beard. People who encounter this eternal party-goer are advised to turn away as soon as they can, as those who party with They Who Rides Eternal report losing days, even weeks of time and waking up compromised, broken, and bruised on the other end of town.
