The Black Fairy rod in Fisch comes from a five-part riddle questline run by Draven in the Underground Music Venue. Each part gives you a list of riddles, every riddle names a fish (usually with a mutation), and the last step costs 53,000,000 C$. This guide lists every riddle answer, the rod or bait each one needs and where to fish it, as published by Roblox Den on November 12, 2026 and Bloxodes on November 1, 2026.
Table of Contents
Quick answer
- Who and where: talk to Draven near the stage in the Underground Music Venue, below Crystal Cove. Choose “I’ll help you find it” to start.
- Structure: five quests (Where Roots Dream, Voices From Afar, Lights for the Lost, A Letter Left Behind, The Great Blade). Each one is a set of riddle fish plus one object you pick up by hand.
- Price: 53,000,000 C$, paid to Draven after the fifth quest. You are then teleported to an instance and walk forward to the rod.
- Hardest part: the mutations. A plain catch of the right fish does not count, so you need the right rod, bait or the Appraiser.
- Checked: sources read November 13, 2026, about 20:40 UTC. Fisch updates often, so confirm each riddle on your own quest tracker.

How to start the Black Fairy quest in Fisch
Go to the Underground Music Venue, the area that opened with the Venue Encore update we covered in our Fisch Venue Encore recap. Draven stands near the stage. Roblox Den describes him with a glowing light on his shirt pocket.
When the dialogue offers it, pick “I’ll help you find it” (Bloxodes’ wording). Draven hands over the first list of riddles. Track the quest so it stays on screen: every list ends with an item you must pick up in the world, not fish for, and the tracker is the quickest way to see which one is left.
Black Fairy rod quest answers (all 5 quests)
The tables below follow Roblox Den’s full walkthrough. Where Bloxodes’ stage-one guide adds or differs, that is noted. When a row says “Appraise”, you take a regular catch to the Appraiser to try for the mutation instead of fishing for it.
Quest 1: Where Roots Dream
| Riddle clue | Catch | Mutation | Rod or bait | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| “Where roots dream, steal that never was” | Rotwood Perch | Translucent | Appraise (Roblox Den); Ghastly enchantment or Spiritbinder rod, Coral bait (Bloxodes) | Everturn Forest |
| “An ancient covered in moss” | Ancient Wood | Mossy | Elder Mossripper | Sunstone Island |
| “The crystal creature, rotting from within” | Gem Blobfish | Rotting | Splitbranch Twig (Bloxodes adds Golden Shrimp Bait) | Treasure Island |
| “Two teeth swallowed by the depths” | The Depths Key | Shiny | A rod with Blessed and Glittered, or appraise a regular key at Moosewood (Bloxodes) | Vertigo |
| “The ocean’s ruined flower of decay” | Rotbloom | Ocean’s Ruin | Thalassar’s Ruin (Bloxodes: Luminous Larva or Thorn Cluster bait, Autumn, during a Rotbloom Hunt) | Toxic Grove |
| “Where the drowned giant broke its spine” | Wooden plank (item) | None | Pick up by hand | Shipwrecks at Castaway Cliffs |
Bloxodes places the plank on the sunken ship east of Castaway Cliffs, marked by a flag with a fishbone, at coordinates 883.1, 31.8, -1928.2 (X, Y, Z). Return to Draven when the list is done.
Quest 2: Voices From Afar
| Riddle clue | Catch | Mutation | Rod or bait | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| “The decayed hunter lurking in the abyss” | Abyssal Slickhead | Decayed | Decayed Rod | Cultist Lair |
| “The devourer of lightless depths” | Abyssal Devourer | Bioluminescent | Luminous Rod, or Bio-Infused Coral Bait | Kraken Lair |
| “The crimson devil of the abyss” | Abyssal Bearded Seadevil | Crimson | Scarlet Spincaster, or a mastered No-Life Rod | Abyssal Zenith |
| “The unfortunate abyss predator with a sparkle” | Abyssacuda | Sparkling, Unlucky | Any rod | Vertigo |

Quest 5 ends with Obsidian Trench catches and a Great Knife near the Olympian Fissure. AI-generated illustration
Quest 3: Lights for the Lost
| Riddle clue | Catch | Mutation | Rod or bait | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| “The ghostly glow that shines within the void” | Voidglow Ghostfish | Shiny, Glowy | Any rod with Glowworm bait | Abyssal Zenith |

| “The crystalized horror beneath the ocean’s floor” | Monstrous Cusk | Crystalline | Crystal Crasher (harpoon gun) | Gloomy Crevice (The Deep) |
| “The light that guides the lost” | Flashlight (item) | None | Pick up by hand | On a crate beside the Angler in The Depths |
Quest 4: A Letter Left Behind
Roblox Den says this list is shorter but harder because of timing and specific requirements.
| Riddle clue | Catch | Mutation | Rod or condition | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| “Lunar hymns… the winged omen touched by a kiss” | Harmonic Dove | Moon-Kissed, Lovestruck or Heartburst | Cupid’s Bow (or Cerebra), or wait for a Blue Moon event with any rod; the Long enchantment is mandatory | Above the Clouds |
| “The fairy bird tormented by a cruel fate” | Fairy Penguin | Plagued | Plaguereaver | Snowcap Island |
| “The wyvern consumed by blight” | Wyvern | Blighted | Ice Warpers Rod or Summit Rod; Long enchantment mandatory | Above the Clouds |
| “A letter left behind” | Letter (item) | None | Pick up by hand | Birch Cay, between Castaway Cliffs and Everturn Forest; bottom rack of a shelf in the bunker |
Quest 5: The Great Blade
| Riddle clue | Catch | Mutation | Rod or bait | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| “The vampiric crawler that rules the Trench” | Skolopendra | Sanguine | Sanguine Spire, or a mastered No-Life Rod | Obsidian Trench |
| “The corroded fragment bearing greatest Fischer” | Rusty Bolt | Oscar | Great Rod of Oscar with Garbage bait | Mineshaft |
| Catch 1 Veiled Charybdis with the Flimsy Rod | Veiled Charybdis | Invincible, Crested | Flimsy Rod with Glitched Beetle bait | Obsidian Trench |
| “The great blade buried within the gods” | Great Knife (item) | None | Someone must catch the Olympian Devil; then take the portal and go north of the Olympian Godbreaker | Olympian Fissure |
With the last list done, go back to Draven and pay 53,000,000 C$. You are teleported to an instance. Follow the path forward and the Black Fairy is on the ground at the end.
What you need before you start
- Money: 53,000,000 C$ for the final payment, on top of what the rods and bait cost.
- Rods that appear more than once: the No-Life Rod (mastered) covers both Crimson and Sanguine, and a rod with the Blessed and Glittered enchantments helps with both Shiny and Sparkling catches. The Long enchantment is required for two catches in quest 4.
- Appraiser in Moosewood: Bloxodes says the Shiny attribute can be added there, which is the easy route for the Depths Key, while mutations such as Mossy and Rotting cannot be appraised and need the right rod.
- A friend or a server event: the Olympian Devil in quest 5 can be caught by you or by someone else, and Blue Moon in quest 4 is a world event you can wait for.
Where sources disagree
Only quest 1 is covered by two guides, and they differ on small points: Roblox Den says to appraise the Translucent Rotwood Perch, while Bloxodes names the Ghastly enchantment and the Spiritbinder rod as the way to apply it. Bloxodes also says a regular Depths Key can be appraised into a Shiny one. Quests 2 to 5, the 53,000,000 C$ price and the final instance come from the Roblox Den guide alone, so treat their rod lists as one source’s account. The Fisch Wiki rod page only lists the Underground Music Venue as its location, with the stats still marked TBA when we checked.
Black Fairy rod FAQ
Where do I get the Black Fairy rod in Fisch?
From Draven in the Underground Music Venue, after finishing his five riddle quests and paying 53,000,000 C$.
Do the mutations really have to match?
Bloxodes says five of the six stage-one items need a specific mutation or the Shiny attribute, and that a regular catch will not match the riddle. Treat that as the rule for the later lists too.
Is the Black Fairy only available during an event?
Neither guide mentions an end date, and Roblox Den describes it as a regular rod questline rather than a timed event. Bloxodes published its stage-one guide on November 1, right after the Venue Encore weekend covered in our FischFright 3 rods and relics list, so the questline has been live for at least two weeks. Check Draven’s dialogue in game if anything has changed.
Are there Fisch codes that help?
Neither guide lists a code that unlocks the rod. Our Fisch codes list tracks the current codes, and the Headless Horseman quest guide covers the game’s other quest chain from the Halloween update.
