These crustacean looking monsters are relics of a time long gone, once created by an ancient empire they now roam the depths of water freely, similarly to animals. Their innate sense of magic drives them in the direction of ships carrying magical cargo, only to drag away into the deep beyond the crews of such ships; drowning them to later devour them.

The warm waters of the Pelgrave Tides is where these lone aberrations reside, unlike their counter-parts these hardened 'evolutions' don't hide in the deep waters. Instead they prefer shallow coasts and waters where they can quickly catch their prey.   Commonly found along the waters of Port Drang and the Cay of Silver.
