Something big is happening in Fisch, great events set in motion a long time ago that are about to come together in the event called The Curse, and they all revolve around a mysterious lore figure, known as The Great Dreamer. What is this all about? Let us explain in our lore guide to Fisch The Great Dreamer, where we talk in-game clues, literary references, and our own speculation.
You can play Fisch now on Roblox. If you’d like to read more about general content changes, check out out Fisch update guide.
Fisch The Great Dreamer
Let’s run over where you can find lore in-game, then other clues.
The In-Game Clues
The main source for information on the Great Dreamer, and the NPCs with the most connection to him, are the hippy NPCs. These guys appeared at some point during the lead up to the opening of Atlantis at the Grand Reef, and since then have been wandering around the map. So far we’ve seen them at:
- Grand Reef
- Atlantis
- Roslit Bay
- Moosewood
They like to talk a lot about The Great Dreamer. More recently, their outfits seem to have changed…
This group appear to only have good things to say about The Great Dreamer, and talk about him ”carving his own path’ and how things will be great when he arrives. And while they definitely seem excited, we have some concerns.
The New Image
At some point after a minor content update, an event appeared. It’s ominous image depicted a heavily obscured image. If you look carefully you can make out a huge shape facing the player, which we noticed a distinct pattern to.
As of the last content update, the image became this.
That is definitely Cthulhu.
Who Is Cthulhu?
Cthulhu is a monster that formed a key part of the horror works of writer HP Lovecraft, and he fits the bill in every way, even down to the name. One of the most famous quotes relating to the monster is, wait for it.. “ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn.” or “”In his house at R’lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming”. No coincidence that this thing is the Great Dreamer then?
What Does This Mean?
Given The Great Dreamer is based around Cthulhu, given what we know about Cthulu… it’s probably not a good thing for the world of fish that he wakes up. We’re not expecting him to be particularly friendly. Stay safe on the seas!
