Real-Life Counterpart

  • Wolffish, belonging to the family Anarhichadidae, are distinctive marine fish found primarily in the cold waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Known for their elongated bodies and large, powerful jaws, Wolffish can grow up to 2 meters (6.6 feet) in length. They are easily recognizable by their prominent, fang-like teeth, which are adapted for grasping and consuming prey such as sea urchins, crustaceans, and other hard-shelled organisms. Wolffish have smooth, scaleless skin, which is typically brown or bluish-gray, providing them with camouflage against the rocky ocean floor. These fish are primarily benthic dwellers, often found at depths ranging from 30 to 800 meters (98 to 2,625 feet), and they play a crucial role in their ecosystems by helping control populations of their prey species. Due to their specific habitat requirements and sensitivity to environmental changes, Wolffish populations have faced threats from overfishing and habitat degradation. As a result, some species are currently classified as vulnerable, highlighting the need for conservation efforts to ensure their survival in increasingly changing marine environments.

Trivia

  • The Wolffish is the only nocturnal fish in The Pale Reach DLC.
  • All other fish in the Pale Reach are cathemeral. There are no diurnal fish in the Pale Reach.
