We had awesome creepy tales of space when space get a little bit inhabited.
Let's do the same about underwater villages. It's nearly the same as space: if you live under 40 meters you >need cable internet as water blocks electromagnetic communication >If something breaks you die. > need to be careful with food and oxygen supply. >isolation
So what kind of spooky stories arise?

In such villages you never close the moon pool. You don't want your fellow aquanaut to suffocate cause you were too slow to open the door.
Stories about mermaids entering at night and stealing food are common.
Also you can't go to the surface whenever you want. You have dissolved gasses in your bloodstream you need to let out slowly. I do not know the exact time but I bet hour of slow pressure changes.
And the most effecicent way for energy is to have a single nuclear fusion station at the center of the village that gives energy to everyone.

>be aquanaut, stationed near Florida Keys >far enough away from shipping lanes to not have to worry too much, only troubles are curious barracuda >one night, buddy and I are chilling >day and night are easy enough to tell, only 30 meters down >all of a sudden the lights go out, pitch black >emergency generator comes online, everything is shrouded in deep red >buddy goes out to check the cable >suits up into the mech-style walker, because while he doesn't admit it, he's spooked too >hear the bulkhead seal, and then the airlock hiss >that was three hours ago >the suits we have only last an hour at best >generator won't last much longer What do?

picrelated is said to be found IRL in underwater caves.
>At first aquanauts made small shrines of Cthulhu as a little joke. But as years passed those jokes got out of hand. >In some villages reports of sacrificical computer elements elft at those sites started to appear. And then all contact with those villages stopped. >when explored no trace of human inside homes remained. As if they all migrated.
David Hernandez
What about Cowboy aquanauts?
Jayden Fisher
Just play Subnautica.

>Subnautica watching the gameplays now. I'm loving some fo the ideas.

They will be farming seas shells like crazy. And probably eat stuff raw or microwave it as smoke generated by traditional cooking sucks.
Christopher Parker
Loving those subnautica creatures.
Anyway as building Biorock si the way to go. Just make a mock-up out of metal wires of what you want to build. Attach a battery. Wait a month. Done.
