Lurker Below

A large fish creature found as a guardian in the void cultist base under Cratenga.
The lurker below rarely eats small fish, preferring instead to bury itself in the soft mud at the bottom of its pond or river, waiting for a more substantial meal. It then lashes out with its long whiskerlike tentacles. If successful, it drags its foe below the water and begins to attack it.
Lurkers are popular as guardians; wizards, warlords, merchants and others who desire security and privacy often place them in moats, pools and water-based traps. Live lurkers fetch up to 500 gp each, but capturing them is a dangerous proposition, and would-be lurker hunters often end up as a meal for their intended prey. Unlike most normal fishes, lurkers seem to easily adapt to either saltwater or freshwater conditions.
Their tentacles can also be mixed for a poison, that when processed creates a drug of sorts that can make pain feel more pleasurable.
