Krakens

The Kraken, a legendary deep-sea monster that dwells in the dark, uncharted waters. It is known for its massive size and ferocious appetite for all manner of sea creatures or ships. Though, this one is still too young for the latter.
These colossal cephalopods are known for their everincreasing size and strength as they age, making them some of the most formidable denizens of the deep. Their body resembles an octopus or squid but of colossal proportions. They possess ten powerful tentacles, each lined with rows of razor-sharp suckers, capable of easily ensnaring and crushing prey. Their eyes are said to be as large as a human, glowing eerily in the inky blackness of the abyss.
Growing in size and power. One of the unique characteristics of these magnificent creatures, which I had the privilege to learn about during my stay in Encura, is that they never cease to grow. As they continue to expand in size, their strength proportionally increases, turning them into even more formidable inhabitants of the deep. The ones spoken of by sea dwellers have been known to reach sizes as colossal as several ships combined. However, they also occasionally come across young Krakens, which can be as small as a small cow or, more fittingly, a shark. Yet, legends suggest that deep in the ocean's abyss, one can encounter Krakens of titanic proportions, beyond our comprehension. Perhaps one day, I will have the opportunity to witness their awe-inspiring magnificence.
Hunting method. Their primary method of attack is to use their powerful tentacles to constrict and immobilize their victims, crushing them with brute force. They can also tear apart ships or prey if they so wish. Krakens are known for their exceptional intelligence and cunning strategies they use to disable vessels and drag them beneath the waves. When Krakens feel threatened, they can also expel massive clouds of dark, inky fluid. This ink cloud creates a dense, disorienting smokescreen allowing them to escape the danger or confuse their prey, making them nearly impossible to track or target.
