{{Journal entry|
There are, in fact, two variants of the monkfish. One is the Piscatoris monkfish, known for its gamey taste and slightly depressed countenance. The other is the Ashenfall monkfish, which has a more trout-like flavour and a happier, almost smirking countenance. Anglers, who like to simplify things, distinguish them by calling them 'sad boy' and 'happy boy'.

Both monkfish are 'sad boys' when they're caught, of course.

{{Journal entry|
It may be called the 'Ashenfall' monkfish, but you'd be hard-pressed to find it anywhere other than in Umbral Sands. That's mostly down to a lack of trade. The Moon Garou are an isolationist sort, preferring to keep their trading partners to other Moon Garou. Their closest non-garou partners would be the Black Knights but they, too, like to keep to themselves, and would prefer to deal with other humans over the garou.

Which is a shame, really, as monkfish deserves to go continental. Ashenfall monkfish is like trout, but with a slight fizzing sensation, similar to popping candy. If you've got a child or garou cub who won't eat their fish, then try them on Ashenfall monkfish. In our house, it's a gateway fish, leading onto other, less gimmicky fish.

==Trivia==
* Monkfish on [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]]'s rivers are due to the goddess [[Dragonwilds:Elidinis]]. The Moon Garou, having never seen a monk, adopted the name after the goddess herself named them.{{CiteJournal|journal=Monkfish Fillets|quote="The Moon Garou don't recognise the term 'monk'."... "Which raises the question of why the Moon Garou call these fish 'monkfish' at all. Well, the answer is a little on the boring, perhaps even obvious side. The River Goddess, who many Moon Garou worship, came to Ashenfall from mainland Gielinor, where the monkfish are more prevalent. So she pointed at the fish, said its name, and Bob's your monkfish."}}
