Description: Kraken is the German word for octopus. Kraken are indeed octopus-like with tentacles completely covered in fleshy suckers and tipped by razor-sharp blades. Huge beasts that inhabit coastal areas where soft, sandy beaches are plentiful, they bury themselves and can lay dormant for decades between meals. The kraken waits for prey to stumble onto the sand nearby, its tentacles erupting to catch the victim by surprise. By the time the prey is dragged into the centre of the great beast's writhing mass to the giant, crushing beak, the victim's body is shredded into pieces. Digestion can take years.

Not all kraken bury themselves in the sand. Some are fully aquatic and live offshore in the deep waters of the Ao Sea, feeding on fish and preying on unsuspecting fishing boats.
