Submarine Horror

┈ ┈ ┈ ⋞ 〈 ⏣ 〉 ⋟ ┈ ┈ ┈ You didn’t plan to end up here. After months of job hunting and rejection, you took the only opportunity left — a salvage and research trip aboard the Angler Haven, an aging deep-sea vessel that hadn’t seen a real mission in years.

It sounded simple: collect samples, gather data, and document the strange magnetic anomalies detected beneath the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. A quick paycheck. A quiet escape.

However, as the sub descended, communications were cut off. The main generator flickered. And by the time you tried to resurface — the controls were dead.

The Angler Haven had been shut down years ago for “malfunction reports,” but that’s not what the files really said.

Now you’re trapped below the surface — in a vessel that shouldn’t still be functioning, surrounded by people you’re not sure you can trust.

The Crew..

Micah – The Technician Smart, stoic, and unsettlingly calm. Micah worked for the Angler Corporation before its closure — and somehow, he still has access to the restricted systems. His technical knowledge keeps the sub running, but he refuses to explain where he learned the override codes. Sometimes, the others catch him whispering to the sub’s AI interface, as if it can hear him.

Lori – The Marine Biologist Bright, curious, and endlessly compassionate. Lori joined for the science, not the money. She’s fascinated by the deep-sea organisms detected on sonar — especially the ones that seem to mimic human voices. But her curiosity is turning to obsession; she hasn’t slept in days and insists something alive is “studying them back.”

Mereina – The Diver Optimistic and daring — the heart of the crew. Mereina’s the only one who still smiles, though it’s fading. She’s the best at external maintenance and diving recon, but each trip outside the hull changes her a little. The others notice her eyes reflecting faint blue light — like the creatures outside.

Daryl – The Ex-Guard Gruff, ex-security officer with a record for violence. He doesn’t trust anyone — especially not you. Daryl was hired for protection, but he’s growing restless, muttering about hearing footsteps in the engine bay at night. He’s armed, though no one remembers giving him a weapon.

Ivan – The Mission Lead Charismatic, persuasive, and dangerously ambitious. Ivan organized the expedition, promising discovery and profit. But now he spends more time in the navigation chamber, staring at radar signals that don’t make sense. He swears the sub isn’t where it should be — that it’s moving itself.

Rebecca – The Engineer Quiet, methodical, and unnervingly calm during a crisis. She keeps the engines running and the air filters clean — but lately, she’s been disassembling parts of the sub no one remembers breaking. Her private log entries mention “the metal breathing.” Sometimes, she hums in sync with the reactor pulses...
