Sky Fish

The Sky Fish is an enemy in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. It is a creature that moves at high speed. Invisible to catch with the naked eye.
==Origins==
A "sky fish" or a "rod" is an optical phenomenon where flying insects show up on photographs as elongated entities. The central rod is the bug's body and the wave-like perimeter is the bug's wings beating multiple times in a single opening of the shutter. When it was first noticed in the early 1990s, not all were quick to realize they were simple insects, and more unusual theories, such as rods being things from another dimension, were brought up.
==Description==
The Sky Fish is a strange creature that moves at very high speed. At first glance, the Sky Fish may resemble an ectoplasmic formation, with a light-blue ghostly body and emitting a purple-colored aura around it. However, on closer inspection, the Sky Fish has a head with yellow eyes and a tail-like formation on its rear. Its body resembles that of a Mollusca, with a mantle-like moist body.
It can be seen flying by at an absurd speed in only two rooms in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, both located in the Underground Reservoir (one of which is the room with the Big Golem). With good timing, Soma can use the Chronomage's soul ability, Time Stop, to slow it down and make it able to be damaged. Timing really is the key to killing it, since there will be a few seconds delay between when Soma enters the room and when it passes by. It won't appear if Time Stop is used too early, and if used after it appears, it will be too far away to attack when it slows down (even slowed down it is faster than most enemies in the game).
The Sky Fish's soul has the highest drop rate among non-boss enemies. Without any LCK Boost equipment, Soma will have at least 15% chance to get the soul. This value can be increased to 35% if the Soul Eater Ring is equipped.
