 It might be a class assignment. It might be because
your parent forced you onto a boat in the middle of “I
can’t get service, please help me!” nowhere for part
of some sort of “family bonding” trip. Heck, there’s a
faint possibility you might enjoy it.
But sooner or later, every Teenager goes fishing.
Fishing is an ancient art. Since the dawn of time,
humans and aliens have been battling to capture fish
(and alien fish).
They do it not just for sustenance but for glory!
After all, it is widely known, the being who catches the
biggest, most legendary fish (or alien fish) gets all the
smooches from their sweetheart(s) of choice (usually
after they shower and get rid of the fish funk).
“But,” you the Referee might be asking right at this
moment, “How do I handle fishing in my game of
Teenagers from Outer Space?”
Why are you asking us? It’s your game. We didn’t
force you to run it.
Oh. Right. We’re the ones writing this thing. Yeah.
Okay. We’ve got you covered. When the inevitable
fishpocylpse happens in your TFOS game, just use the
following rules.
Step One: Casting
(and we don’t mean spells!)
What’s your preferred casting technique? Do
you back-cast, blind cast, dead-stick, feather, flip,
freespool, or sling-shot? It doesn’t matter because we
aren’t writing a different set of rules for every possible
way you can cast your line. In the end, you’re getting
your hook and bait into the water so the fish can bite
and you can catch them. The how doesn’t matter.
3

The Fishing Hole
Referees, for Anglers from Planet X you’ll
need a map of your fishing hole with the
sections marked. We’re including one with this
supplement, but feel free to make your own.
All you need is a piece of paper and some-
thing to draw with. We like crayons, personally.
To cast your line, first determine where you’re going
to drop your hook. Each area of a fishing hole has its
advantages and disadvantages.
Hitting the Weeds is easy. Heck, you’ll probably hit
them more often than not, anyway! If your hook lands
in the weeds, chances are you’ll pull up, you guessed
it, weeds. But you never know. They say the Fish of
Legend lives down there beneath the vegetation.
Casting into the Shallows isn’t too tricky but there’s
a lot of trash there. Still, if you suck at fishing but want
a chance to reel in a Prize Winner, the shallows might
be your only chance.
The Deep. Now we’re talking. It isn’t that easy to
cast to but there’s not much chance you’ll snag a
piece of garbage here! You’re 50/50 on catching
something big enough to be at least Perfect for Grill-
ing.
And then there’s the Perfect Spot. That’s the one
place where there’s nothing but fish all the way down.
It can be hard to nail, but if you land your hook in the
perfect spot you know you’ll catch something good.
Maybe even the Fish of Legend!
Once you’ve figured out where you’re aiming for, the
time has come to calculate angles and velocities and
force vectors. That’s right! Forget instinct. Forget mus-
cle memory. In TFOS, we cast using Math!
Casting Your Line
1d6 + SMARTS vs. 1d6 + Difficulty based on location
(The Weeds: 2 • The Shallows: 4 • The Deep: 6 •
The Perfect Spot: 8)
4
If you succeeded, congratulations! You’re on target
and ready to fish in your chosen spot. If you failed,
what happens next is a roll of the dice.
1. Good job! You hooked yourself and probably
comically yanked down your pants in the pro-
cess.
2. Your hook landed one section north of your
intended location.
3. Your hook landed one section to the east of your
intended location.
4. Your hook landed one section to the west of
your intended location.
5. Your hook landed one section to the south of
your intended location.
6. You cast backward and hooked something
comically appropriate, like your rival’s hair or a
passing car. Enjoy the trip!
If your hook can’t land in the location indicated by
the roll, perhaps because your original spot was on
the edge of the fishing hole, it ends up in the weeds.
Should your Referee be feeling merciful, they can al-
low you to roll your LUCK after you fail in your casting.
If you succeed, somehow, your hook ends up dropping
in the Perfect Spot despite all the odds. Sometimes
dumb luck helps.
Knacks and Fishing
The other players laughed at you when you
took God of Fishing as one of your Knacks.
Well, who’s laughing now?
Still them. Seriously. You took fishing as a
Knack.
The point is Knacks count for this minig-
ame. If your Referee thinks they make sense,
go for it and add them to your rolls.
Today is your day, God of Fishing! Seize it!
Part Two: The Boring Bit (Ugh!)
You’re a Teenager. That means sitting perfectly still
while watching for a little red and white ball to bob
up and down is nothing short of pure torture. In other
words, waiting for a fish to take the bait and grab a
nibble is a special kind of hell and the hardest part of
this minigame.
Waiting for a Nibble
1d6 + COOL vs. 1d6 + 10
What happens if, despite the odds, you manage to
enter an angler’s zen and become one with the fish,
succeeding at your roll?
Down below is the Nibble Table. The entries on the
tables range from bad stuff (weeds and trash) to the
good stuff (huge fish!). If you succeed, the Referee
rolls twice on the appropriate table and picks the best
result. If you fail? The Referee rolls twice on the table
and chooses the worst outcome.
Remember, seaweed is nutritious, and there’s no
shame in eating it. Don’t eat the trash, though.
Referees, consult the Nibble Table we just wrote
about. Roll 1d6 twice, then check the column for the
location the Teenager cast to. Then pick either the
best or worst of the two rolls depending on their suc-
cess or failure on the Waiting for a Nibble roll.
We’ll talk about each of the entries afterward, along
with their FISH BOD and BONK (which you’ll use in the
next part).

moderate tug when hooked. FISH BOD 2. BONK: 1
More Trash: A boot or a tire. Something that gives a
big tug when hooked. FISH BOD 3. BONK: 1
Small Fry: A tiny fish that you’ll probably be em-
barrassed to have caught. Gives a slight tug when
hooked. FISH BOD 1. BONK: 2
Perfect for Grilling: Yum! You caught dinner! Just
the right size to throw on the barbecue! Gives a mod-
erate tug when hooked. FISH BOD 2. BONK: 3
Prize Winner: You know how sometimes people
take selfies while holding a fish because it is so awe-
some? That’s this. Gives a big tug when hooked.
FISH BOD 3. BONK: 4
Fish of Legend: The old anglers speak of this fish
late at night, telling stories of the one that got away.
They say it is the devil incarnated into fish form, and
anyone who catches it gains eternal good fortune. Or,
it could just be a really, really, really big fish. Gives a
big tug when hooked, but you know this is the fish of
legend. Know it in your bones. FISH BOD 5. BONK: 5

That’s it, right? You just make the roll and, if you
succeed, you catch the fish, and if you fail, you
don’t. Right?
Nope!
What kind of fiddly, frustrating, and yet oddly
addictive minigame would this be if it were that
easy?
If you succeed at your Reeling in Your Catch roll,
you get to drop 3 dice onto the Fishing Target. If
you fail at the roll, you only get to drop 2 dice. See?
Even if you fail, you still have a chance to catch
your fish. Aren’t we nice? We like cookies if you’re
feeling appreciative.

What’s a Fishing Target?

Thrilled you asked!

What About Powers?
Personally, we think using Powers while
engaged in the ancient and noble sport of fish-
ing to be cheating but, hey, we aren’t running
your game! The Referee makes the call about
how using a Power helps you while you’re
fishing. Maybe it lowers the target for casting
or gives you another roll on the Nibble Table or
even another die to drop on the Fishing Target.
That’s their call, not ours.
We’re not going to mess with your Referee.
They scare us.
You only reel in your fish if you’ve reduced its BONK
to 0. If you run out of dice to drop before that hap-
pens, the line snaps and the fish gets away with the
bait and a story to tell its friends about the stupid
Teenager who thought they had what it took. If your
BONK reaches 0, the same thing happens, but you
also get a new obsession: hunting down the fish
that made you unable to act for a round. Maybe two.
(You’ll get that fish, someday. You swear it!)
Referees, use the Small Fry Fishing Target for
Weeds. Use the Perfect for Grilling Target for Also
Weeds and Trash. Use the Prize Winner Target for
More Trash. You’ll notice we don’t mark the Targets
with those names. That way, your Teenager can shout
and whoop in excitement as they reel in what they
think is a fish, then groan in actual physical pain, tears
in their eyes, as you describe the mass of kelp or the
rusted hubcap they yanked up instead.
Weeds and trash only have a BONK of 1, but we
recommend making the player drop each of their d6s
just to heighten the comedic tension. If they pass out
due to losing all their BONK, they should do so while
giving one last desperate tug on their rod and watch-
ing, helplessly, as the vegetation or garbage rises from
the water and smacks them in the face to send them
spiraling down to the ground in pain and shame.
Now, that’s comedy!
Fishing Gear
Yes, you can net fish and spear fish and dynamite
fish and gravity gun fish, but we wrote these rules for
real fishing. Rod. Line. Hook. Bait. That’s it. All this
means if you’re going to go fishing, you need to stop
by the mall and visit Slick’s Sporting Goods. Old Slick
will get you set up or you don’t get your money back!
Fishing Rod ($5): Your basic fishing rod. You can
use it for fishing. The line will probably get tangled at
some point.
Fishing Rod Xtreme! ($100): The ultimate fishing
rod. Slick promises this one’s a steal at only $100! It
gives you one additional die to drop on the Fishing
Target and does 1 BONK if used as a weapon on land.
Bait ($5): Anglers used to use boring old earth-
worms for fishing. Now they use Planet X Brand
Worms! If these wrigglers detect the bait can isn’t full,
they go into an asexual reproductive frenzy to make
new worms. That means the bait can is never empty.
Siren Crickets ($5): These strange little critters sit
on the hook and emit a hypersonic signal that draws
fish to them like black hair dye to a goth. The price is
per cricket, but using one gives you one additional die
drop on the Fishing Target.
Angler’s Outfit ($20): The vest with all the pockets.
The hat covered in hooks. The big rubber boots. This
outfit doesn’t help you catch fish, but it might con-
vince everyone else that you know what you’re doing!
It Was This Big!
Teenagers being Teenagers, eventually
they’ll start comparing the size of their… fish.
Here’s the basics: Perfect for Grilling are
bigger than Small Fry. Then Prize WInners.
Then Fish of Legend. If you need to compare
two fish within the same category, have each
participant roll 1d6. Highest wins. If they tie,
they’ve caught identical fish, which is probably
a result of the Aquatic Cloning Facility and
quite possibly the first clue they’ll get about
Professor Nemo’s evil marine plot for world
conquest.

 Appendix θ: Fish Lifepath
We had just finished playtesting these rules when
our poor intern in charge of dealing with Real Weirdies
from the Internet got another text from 10wnzurm-
0mz.
wtf w <fish emoji> nms? smoll fry? fsh f
lgnd? i wnt rl nms lol!
Translation: What the <bleep> is up with the fish
names? Small fry? Fish of legend? I want real names!
10wnzurm0mz, never let it be said we didn’t give you
anything for the holidays. In fact, we’ve gone a step
further. Who needs a collection of just fish names
when you can have an entire Fish Lifepath to give
them personality, motivation, and history! To use the
Fish Lifepath, start at the beginning with Origins and
Personal Style and follow the prompts to the end. It is
that simple!
What’s a Lifepath?
Players of our Cyberpunk, Mekton, and
Witcher TRPGs will already know the answer
to this question! Everyone else? Go play those
games! They’re wicked awesome!
Also, a Lifepath is a series of tables you
move through, rolling (or choosing if you’re not
feeling adventurous) to generate a world-spe-
cific background for your character.
A bit of a humble brag here. A lot of games
these days include Lifepaths as part of their
character generation system but we originat-
ed (and named!) the idea way back in the dark,
distant 1980s.

Origins and Personal Style

What does your fish look like, and where does it come from?

AQUATIC ORIGINS
Once upon a time, you found freshwater fish in freshwater and saltwater fish in saltwater and alien fish in
alienwater but in the age of Teenagers from Outer Space, that’s all gone out the window. Roll to determine
where your fish comes from. How did that fish get to your fishing hole and how does it survive there? Maybe
you should ask it!

Die Roll Scales

1 Freshwater
2 Saltwater
3 Someone’s fish tank
4 Outer space
5 Aquarium
6 Used to be royalty but was transformed into a fish

GO TO PERSONAL STYLE

8
PERSONAL STYLE

4 Sexy red Multicolor fins Old hook hanging from lip
5 Green and black Transparent Long, sharp teeth
6 Shiny gold Perfectly formed Too many eyes

GO TO FAMILY BACKGROUND

9
Family Background
Your fish didn’t spontaneously generate. Probably. They came from a family! They had moms and dads and
siblings and a whole life! And here you are tearing them out of the water, ripping them away from their entire
support structure. For what? So you can eat them? You monster!

FAMILY RANKING
Roll 1d6 to determine your fish’s family’s ranking in fish society.

2 Loved and cared for in a safe environment
3 Someone’s pet
4 Part of a secret military project
5 Raised in a fish farm to be eaten

GO TO SIBLINGS
SIBLINGS
Roll 1d6. On a roll of 1 to 5, multiply the number by 10, and that’s how many siblings your fish has. On a roll of
6, they’re an only child.
If you really want to, you can roll (and roll and roll and roll) for the relative age of each sibling and how they
feel about your fish.
Age: On a 1 to 2, they hatched before your fish. On a 3 to 4, they hatched after your fish. On a 6, they hatched
at the same time as your fish.
Feelings About Your Fish: On a 1, they dislike your fish. On a 2, they like your fish. On a 3, they’re neutral. On
a 4, they worship your fish like a hero. On a 5, they hate your fish. On a 6, it doesn’t matter because you’re going
to eat your fish anyway.

GO TO PERSONALITY AND MOTIVATIONS

12
Personality and Motivations
Your fish is just like you! Your fish has hopes and dreams and things and people they cherish! Lot of good
that did them! Start with Personality Traits.

PERSONALITY TRAITS
Let’s find out about your fish’s personality! Roll 1d6.

Die Roll Result

1 Nothing. Fish don’t own stuff.
2 Seriously. This is a fish. They don’t own stuff.
3 Fine! Your fish owns a rock.
4 Okay, maybe the rock is shiny?
5 Or maybe the rock is actually a pearl?
6 Just kidding! The rock is a portable black hole and
you cracked it open and now we’re all going to die.

GO TO LIFE EVENTS

Life Events
How many Life Events should your fish have? Are you having fun? Then roll until you aren’t! It probably doesn’t
matter anyway.
Unless your Referee decides to be evil and your fully realized fish escapes your grasp, vows revenge, and
ends up teaching your math class!
We had a nightmare like that once. When you’ve decided on your fish’s Life Events, go to Name That Fish!
Roll 1d6 to see what kind of Life Event your fish had.

Die Roll Result

1 to 2 Go to Big Problems, Big Wins
3 to 4 Go to Friends and Enemies
5 Go to Romantic Involvement
6 Nothing Happened

15
BIG PROBLEMS, BIG WINS
Roll 1d6 to see how your fish’s life event’s gone.
If you rolled even, your fish got lucky. Roll 1d6 to see how!

Die Roll Result

1 Your fish got a law degree and knows you’re fishing
out of season without a license. Now you’re in trou-
ble!
2 Your fish studied Fish-fu. Which is useless against
anyone who isn’t also a fish.
3 A shark or other big predator owes your fish a favor.
4 Your fish owns two shiny rocks!
5 Your fish got lost and their family went on a world-
wide quest to find them, eventually reuniting in Aus-
tralia.
6 Your fish befriended a mermaid who wanted to walk
on land so they could find true love.

OR

You rolled odd! Oh, bad luck for your fish! Roll 1d6!

2 Your fish lost someone they really cared about.
Possibly during one of your earlier fishing trips.
3 Your fish is an outlaw, on the run from the fish cops.
4 Your fish lost their shiny rock.
5 Your fish got into an accident that scarred them,
physically and mentally.
6 Your fish died. You caught a ghost fish. It vanishes
from your hook!

16
FRIENDS AND ENEMIES
Did your fish make a friend or an enemy? Roll 1d6 to find out!
You rolled even? Hurry! Roll 1d6 and find out who your fish’s friend is!

Die Roll Result

1 A shark or other big predator
2 A mellow sea turtle
3 The local game warden
4 A grizzled old angler. They’ve engaged in a battle of
wits that spans years, but your fish won their respect
in the end
5 Your crush who came fishing with you. Think twice
before eating this one!
6 The ruler of Atlantis

OR

You rolled odd. That means an enemy! We can’t look! Roll 1d6 for us and tell us the results.

Die Roll Result

1 The fish’s best friend is now their worst enemy
2 You!
3 A member of the fish’s family
4 The ruler of Atlantis
5 A celebrity chef
6 Timmy. He knows what he did!

17
ROMANTIC INVOLVEMENT
Fish can be just as sappy and randy as anyone else! Roll 1d6. On a 1, your fish had a happy love affair. That’s
boring, so there are no further details. On a 2 to 3, go to Tragic Love Affair. Now we’re talking! On a 4 to 5, go to
Love Affair with Problems. And on a 6 they played the field. No further rolls needed. We honestly don’t want to
know.
It was a Tragic Love Affair. Would you kindly roll 1d6?

Die Roll Result

1 Your fish’s lover died in a boating accident
2 Your fish’s lover mysteriously vanished one day
3 Your fish’s lover is now the school’s mascot.
4 A rival stole your fish’s lover
5 Your fish’s lover went to fish jail
6 You ate your fish’s lover. Delicious!

It was a Love Affair with Problems. We’ve got the popcorn! Go ahead and roll 1d6!

Die Roll Result

1 Your fish’s lover’s family hates your fish
2 Your fish’s family hates your fish’s lover
3 Your fish’s lover is messing around
4 Your fish’s lover is in another fishing hole
5 Your fish’s lover is a piece of trash they found on the
bottom of the fishing hole
6 Your fish’s lover is a beta fish and always wants to
fight

18
Name that Fish!
Just to keep 10wnzurm0mz happy, you can use the following table to determine the name of the species of
fish you caught. This method only works for Small Fry, Perfect for Grilling, and Prize Winners. Fish of Legend
should be named something epic by the Referee like the Old Man of Lake Muckamuck or Charlie.
Roll once on each column, then string the three words together to get the name of your fish’s species.

Die Roll Name Part 1 Name Part 2 Name Part 3

Fish of Legend

The Supplem en t Y o u D id n ’t K n o w Y o u N ee d ed ...

T he battle had been the stuff of legends. Man versus fish in the sort of
epic struggle that had defined virility since the dawn of time. There had
been moments when it seemed as if the fish would get away but Tommy
Tanaka dug down deep, gave it a hundred and ten percent, and cheated by
blowing his entire allowance on an entire bag full of siren crickets and the
latest model of Fishing Rod Xtreme! Sure, his arms felt like cooked ramen
and there was a raging forest fire in his lungs but it didn’t matter. He had
caught it. He had caught the fabled Big Fish of Makeout Point.

T he mermaid showed up less than a minute later, slammed him over the
head with a hyperdimensional hammer, and told him off for catching her
pet porgifish. By the time Tommy recovered from the wrath of the mermaid,
both she and the fabled Big Fish of Makeout Point were gone.
