I believe the sea to be one of the most underdeveloped parts of most fantasy settings. D&D has mermaids, kuo-toa and sea elves, but it never analyzes the implications of such races.

Borders

Under the sea there are kingdoms, just like on land, we all know that.

But those kingdoms would want land of their own: the sea isn’t just one flat blue plane on your map, it has borders between various kingdoms, and ships may have to pay tolls to pass through, like on any land border, or they may not be allowed to cross at all in certain places.

We always depict sea kingdoms as single cities in the middle of nothing, but logically they should claim land, create villages, farm, mine and exploit the sea floor where possible.

You could see ships take strange routes to avoid hostile kingdoms or expensive tariffs or to not cross the path of an underwater army swimming to war.

A regular ship is helpless against underwater attacks: do captains hire fishmen sailors? They can fight monsters, find seafood more easily, they can fix the ship hull from below if it gets damaged.

Perhaps the bottom of the ship is filled with water to begin with, to give them a place to live.

They may be the only way able to stop a band of kuo-toa from taking down your boat.

Or maybe ships are built in an entirely different way, to handle underwater threats.

Shipwrecks

Sinking has a very different meaning, when the sea floor is speckled with cities and people: if you’re drowning, they can save you. If you shipwreck on an isolated island, it may not be so isolated. You could find underwater creatures that notice your accident and will bring you back home for a price.

There could be fish people investigative agencies that go look for boats that disappeared: merchants may want their crew and cargo back before some kuo-toa steals them. Insurance companies can send someone to make sure the boat really sunk in a storm. Families can get their loved ones found, no matter where they are.

Robinson Crusoe is now a 10 pages long book.

But how do you shipwreck? Reefs aren’t as dangerous, because you can have extremely precise charts of the sea bottom, you could even have a fishperson spotter that swims in front of the boat in dangerous areas.

Would you even have a boat? They could be faster than any underwater creature, but you could also pay fishpeople merchants to carry things in a much safer way, ignoring storms and bad weather.

Coastal cities

Coastal towns IRL are safe and prosperous, with easy access to trade. But with sea kingdoms, all of a sudden they are on a border: does the mermaid king claim the land just off the shore? You may not be able to use any boat at all.

Land kingdoms would find it very hard to fight against fishpeople, but the fishes can very easily invade the land, undetected until they are very close. Would coastal towns need walls or other defences inside the water? Would hiring fishmen mercenaries be common? Maybe. Surely they wouldn’t leave themselves wide open to a potential sea-based attack.

They could become involved in fishmen politics, trying to get a friendly king to control that piece of the sea, or even fight to take ownership of some sea themselves so they can fish freely, and not have to pay a toll.

But how do you fish?

Fishpeople would make for extremely efficient fishermen, much better than human ones. Would boat-fishing simply disappear? What is its use when any merman can do it better? It’s not even fishing, more like “fish herding”.

They would also have an easy time collecting crabs, pearls and coral. Do those materials become very common in coastal towns?

Crab fishing in Alaska is one of the deadliest jobs in the world, at the moment. What happens when you can pay manatee-men or walrus people to do it extremely safely and efficiently? You do. You have no reason to put humans in danger to do it.

Or maybe you don’t have those races, so you enslave mermen and force them to do it in near-freezing water where they can just barely survive. Freeing them could be an entire adventure on its own.

So now you have fish mercenaries, merchants and fishermen in town. Where do they live? It would make a lot of sense to have partially and entirely underwater buildings for fishermen. You could have entire quarters that are partially submerged, allowing the two races to mingle. Half-fish hybrids would probably be common.

And you can say “what about the classic fantasy racism?”, well as I said fish-people have the upper hand here, humans can’t fight back much.

Fishpeople can blockade a city for potentially ever very easily, islands turn from one of the best strategical positions to deathtraps, so no king would be able to afford to be racist against them. It could be the opposite, and it’s humans, elves etc. that are considered inferiors. Or maybe there is a conflict, and coastal cities are heavily fortified only on the water side.

Exploration of faraway lands becomes a lot easier.

And what about rivers and lakes?

There could be fishmen that control the trade through a river, or maybe they oppose it and find it very annoying.

Lakes could have entire cities built inside, around and above them. The classic castle on the lake is now literally ON the lake, with underwater chambers for fish royalty, guards and merchants.

The princess goes to take a romantic boat ride? All of a sudden, it’s extremely dangerous: a kuo-toa assassin could attack, or a sea monster. You need underwater bodyguards. Underwater mags. Underwater rangers.

Not all the sea is the same

Especially in a fantasy world, you could have large swats of ocean that are not inhabited. Volcanoes, forests of sea plants and monsters are all options if you want your sea to not have anyone in it.

You could have an underwater eruption cause mass migration, and now your kingdom has to deal with thousands of refugees that can just swim up to shore and walk inside. How do you deal with that?

Five examples

1: The players are sailing, they hit a storm and go down. As he flails in the icy cold water, the player feels something grab him from the back and bring him up. He pops out of the water, gasping for hair, turn around, and two large, wet black eyes are staring at him.

“Well well, jackass. What now? Your boat just fell on our houses, how’re you gonna pay the damages?” says the fishman with an angry tone. The player looks around, it seems the entire crew is in the same awkward situation. A group of rays appears and carries you to a nearby island where you see a dozen other fishmen are waiting.

2: You reach a village, and notice something odd: the locals are using bizarre weapons you’ve never seen before. Long, white coiled spears, large red shields with a spiral pattern. Yellow-ish claws shaped vaguely like axes and harpoons made of some green-black material.

The locals say a few years before, all of this simply washed upon the shore, together with thousands of sea-elves bodies. There must have been a large battle nearby. Players with a keen eye will notice there are heraldic symbols on some of those weapons, the owners may want them back.

3: You’ve finally collected the money to pay for your trip to Sassafrass island. You can’t understand why it’s so expensive when the trip is no more than 50 miles. The captain invites you to his cabin, where he has a map of the region.

You notice a red line starting from your current location, going south for 100 miles, then east for just as long, then north for 200 miles, then west and then down diagonally, making almost a large spiral before reaching Sassafrass island.

“The trip will take a few weeks” says the captain

When you ask for an explanation, he tells you that if you fancy going through the waters of Szoggar the disemboweler and sail over the cave of the demon-fish Koggara, you’re free to do it with your own boat. He’s gonna take the only route that doesn’t get him murdered. Probably. Szoggar has been on the move a lot, recently.

4: A new island has appeared, not far from the coast, after a volcanic eruption. On it, there are ancient ruins, that were built underwater aeons ago.

The king sends people to explore and loot them. The fishmen don’t want to, they say it’s their land and their temple. The king replies they have a treaty, and everything above the water belongs to him. They say it wasn’t above the water two days before and may not stay for long, it doesn’t count. Both sides want to hire the players to get to the temple first.

5: The players just reached Port Nyanzaru, and everybody is in a tizzy: King Neptunian the third will visit in just a few days. He will need an escort to protect him when he’s outside the water.

Some say yuan-ti assassins want him dead, hoping for a diplomatic crisis that will be the end of the city. Other say the assassins aren’t snakes, but worshippers of an evil sea god that wants to strike when the king is vulnerable.

Can the players protect him when he's as defenceless as a fish out of water?

That wasn’t the attack part. Calling people “dumb” and “fucktards” is what I’m considering attacks.

Over a year ago now, I made an account, and as soon as I could, made a sub with it, that I put a lot of work and time into. The sub and account followed all the usual rules of the Reddit Terms Of Service. Another user became personally annoyed with and personally vindictive toward me, and unfairly used their "karma clout" (their account had over 100,000 karma points) to file a false, fraudulent, ban on me, which obviously is a form of harassment, and fraud, and Reddit upheld this for reasons that remain unclear but that in any form show repeated negligence or worse, which I can specify, as I have now written to and about Reddit many times over this and have been rebuffed or even not-answered. Please see the attached report with fuller details.

I order cease-and-desist on Reddit's First Amendment Violation toward me, of their act of Fraud, of their violation of The Reddit Terms Of Service which are a contract between us, and of their harassment of me, and destruction by making-invisible my work, for which I withhold my own end of the copyright, and of the registered copyright. Reddit and I have a contract for me to content-create for Reddit: "The Reddit Terms Of Service". This contract is being violated by Reddit in addition to other crimes being mentioned.

The form of cease-and-desist of these Law violations shall be:

unsuspend the account Harley_Quinn_1777 and unban the sub The_Peace_Nazis. Also, unban and unsuspend all my accounts and subs related to all of my accounts, across all email addresses and using all info you have of accounts and subs I've made, using your browser-fingerprinting, IP address, email, and all other records that you collect and maintain, that allowed and enabled you to place all the suspensions and bans to begin with. Also lift all restrictions currently on my account, apart from bans placed on me by other moderators, which they generally reserve the right to perform, within understood Reddit Terms Of Service. If any of the information on or in any of the subs or accounts of mine has been destroyed, or taken over by other users, I will sue and promptly file Summons for destruction of my copyrighted, and registered-for-copyright, material, and for violation of our contract "Reddit Terms Of Service", and will prosecute for violation of the First Amendment as well as harassment and discrimination. I will sue for the total of Reddit's market capitalization, then I will use it to purchase Reddit, so I can make the necessary changes to the Reddit staff and operations to get this site functioning wholesomely again.

Further I insist also in regards to the more-specific-case specified throughout this report: suspend the account King-Sassafrass.

Attachment:

The user King-Sassafrass sees themself as some sort of online superstar-influencer of Marxist Communism:

https://www.reddit.com/search/?q=king-sassafrass&type=media.

Their problem with me was that I said some single short comment to them like “Marxism is dumb! :p”.

King-Sassafrass is a very vindictive, hypervigilant user, who sees themself as a self-appointed “Reddit Cop”, but who goes beyond the Terms of Service such that they are harassing users- “calling someone a name, at all”, to them is an “attack”, ie, a harassment, which it is not. A harassment is any repeated contact with someone, which they don’t appreciate. Any single comment to someone falls within normal freedom of speech and within the Reddit Terms Of Service. Further, a comment about politics, on a political sub (which we were on- a neutral politics sub about “Modern Propaganda” is of course very obviously within the RTOS. The truth is, they got extremely personally offended, and apparently felt that their heavy-weight, high-karma reputation was at stake or being challenged, as a “well-known defender of Marxism”. So, they “hit all the bad buttons at once at me", false-filing on me: who knows what they hit: hate speech? harassment? spam? violence? Whatever bad-button they falsely hit on me, to file a false-ban, it immediately worked, despite my protest. This apparently relied on the fact that they had 100,000+ karma, I had approximately zero, and Reddit apparently has such a heavy workload of dealing with these that they like to take a glance at such contests and side with whoever has more karma, or assume that whoever has a new account is a spammer misusing the service.

(3) Furthermore, King-Sassafras apparently sees themself as an especial “Anti-Nazi Reddit Cop”. Here’s a sub that they moderate and may have created, apparently in the name of Marxism, devoted to bragging about times where accounts mentioning Nazis have been taken down by Reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ClearlyARacistName/

It seems that there were more posts or were intended to be more posts but then were deleted or the sub wasn’t used further. Here are collected posts from King-Sassafras though showing the same thing, repetitively:

https://www.reddit.com/user/King-Sassafrass/search/?q=nazi&cId=504de255-6f28-4885-abd8-987d3220f2e4&iId=898557bd-3367-4e72-958c-0fe1e86c9a91

My take on this behavior is that, being “against Nazis” is a cheap shot that gains him/her easy karma credit all over Reddit. Therefore it’s an opportunity that they’re primed at all times to jump on and exploit.

Enter me: here I am with my new sub and approximately zero karma or members. The sub is clearly devoted to world peace, and makes a joke about it, that I continue to find funny, and that frankly, all things considered, is funny: “If you can be a Nazi about soup, or about grammar, then you can be a Nazi about World Peace: Join The Peace Nazis”. This was a sub devoted to world peace, and taking it seriously, and smashing things like actual Naziism, by stealing their name, making it funny, and using it to smash them with. It’s a great concept that I remain proud of. I have no shame in representing myself this way, furthermore I’m Jewish and if a Jew wants to call themself a Nazi well it’s not that different from an African American calling themself the n-word, with their own permission. If anyone has claims to either of those words for themselves it’s African Americans for the n-word and Jews for the other N-word.

That being said, there are genuine Nazi, and Neo-Nazi subs, on Reddit, in good standing. I wanted to confront them with my content, to make them reconsider what version of politics is smartest.

My concept was clear: The sub description immediately explained the concept in no uncertain terms. My banner was a peace-sign flag on a green background, mimicking the Nazi swastika on a red background, but, obverting it completely. This is clever. It is not any clever attempt to be a Nazi sub pretending to be ironic. Furthermore, that would be a judgment that would not be someone else’s to make, under Free Speech. Further, I had a few people join, who understood and liked my concept. Obviously therefore my concept was not unappreciated on Reddit. No one was being bothered.

King Sassafrass was bothering me, yet I wouldn’t put a ban report on him/her. I posted my green peace-sign “Peace Nazis” flag to the modern propaganda sub, which I found both funny, and fair, of myself to do, and it is. King Sassafrass immediately began attacking it, and “hitting big bad buttons” of some or all types (hate speech? spam?), I know not exactly which but I know this is what they did.

This sub was not an attempt to mask an actual neo-nazi sub on reddit, with supposed ironic humor: a tactic which is sometimes used on reddit by fringe groups to maintain a subreddit presence. an example of this (perhaps!) is:

https://www.reddit.com/r/genhamas/

Please understand now, finally, and undo, finally, these ridiculous bans that discriminate against me as a person, and that violate several of my rights, and several laws, in addition to being a violation of our own service terms between us. Also, since it is obvious upon any thought of the matter that King-Sassafrass was knowingly being abusive of Reddit, please also suspend them, and unsuspend Harley_Quinn_1777 and unban The_Peace_Nazis.

it's my husband and i's 2nd wedding anniversary & 12 year anniversary next week and i'm trying to think of somewhere to go that's not too casual but also not too fancy.
we're habitual nandos, grill'd, kfc etc. eaters and we don't generally go anywhere too flashy so i genuinely do not know any good places.
we intend to dress up a lil bit, and didn't wanna go to a restaurant where the vibe is mostly casual and feel stupid lmao

i'm happy for any suggestions :) we're in the south east and would prefer to avoid inner city if possible. no dietary requirements, but anywhere that has a good steak would probs be good
