Hydrocolossal
Hydrocolossalism is a rare phenomenon where an aquatic based creature's growth is accelerated and exceeds the usual size limit by many times. Causing the creature to quite literally take on colossal properties. They are a range of deep sea colossal creatures, anything larger than 60 feet is considered colossal sized. Any aquatic features can fit a hydrocolossi, webbed feet, fins, flippers, bioluminescence, tails, etc.
Due to the sheer expontential growth that these creatures experience, a secondary effect is that they lose their ability to harness magic, and have strong weaknesses against magic. This includes water based magics. However the true strength come from being an enormous size; ranging from 60 feet (18 meters) to over 200 feet (60 meters). Some instances, because of how the deep ocean can work, the hydrocolossal growth can reach over 500+ feet (152 meters)
Hydrocolossi are accustomed to extreme temperatures of both kinds as well as sudden temperature shifts. And they are capable of withstanding intense amounts of pressure, which allows them to exist near the proverbial ocean floors of midbaar.
Due to the dramatic increases in size, a Hydrocolossus must maintain a larger diet often consisting of Seafood. Moreso, such things are only found in the depths of Midbaar's oceans, making Hydrocolossal creatures a rarity. The diet is omnivorous, but there is a preference to a diet of mostly meat. Sharks, whales, serpents, even each other are all on the menu. Sometimes schools of fish are gobbled up whole for an afternoon snack. Otherwise, a Hydrocolossus can eat seagrass and kelp to balance their diet.
