Planar the Fish

First creation of Chazos, this creature is said to be so large and flat that it makes up the entire High Ocean's floor. However, this remains a legend because no powerful kingdoms or rulers with sufficient resources care to look into the validity of its existence. This is partly due to the fear that their merchant enterprises would collapse if so many terrified sailors quit at once, but mostly because a massive and immobile fish is useless. Not to mention, revealing it after so many years might inspire some glory-seeking morons to hunt it down and piss it off.

Summary

During the fourth year of time, near the beginning of the Fluxuation (Ft), Chaz created life for the first time. His inexperienced nature led him to mess up the fish's proportions so badly that it barely fit in the ocean, which was most likely resized soon afterward. Planar is said to be only a couple yards thick and buried thousands of feet below the the High Ocean in which it dwells. It supposedly lives off the energy that corrects the numerous logical loopholes which define the Flying Flux, making its power comparable to that a god's.

Historical Basis

It's said that, during the dawn of Fluxerkind, Chazos taught the races various rules of Flux by drawing on the scales of a massive fish. A wily merchant actually began a very successful fish-shaped paper business in reference to this, but that's neither here nor there. The god had supposedly dropped the fish back in the ocean, which promptly emptied itself and killed nearly half of the world's population.

Spread

Due to the fossilized imprints where various creatures were violently frozen in time, this legend is very wide-spread.

Variations & Mutation

There was one man who made a fortune selling his thoughts to various intellectuals, particularly concerning the great fish. His proposal claimed that the Flying Flux was actually flat, and rode on the back of Planar through the cosmos. Naturally, he was hired more as entertainment than anything else, but their are a few scattered cults dedicated to this idea.
