[366 Days of Monsters] Day 11/366 - Gargantuan Hamsters and Squids

Added 2020-01-11 15:00:02 +0000 UTC

Gargantuan hamsters are 50-foot-long beasts that eat anything they can find, preferring meat. Often, they eat livestock, decimating entire herds of cattle, sheep, and goats before they're chased off by adventurers.

True terrors of the sea, gargantuan squids—often erroneously referred to as "krakens" by sailors who've never met or seen an actual kraken—can bring entire galleons down with their powerful tentacles.

Fortunately, not many of these beasts exist. Once, Qhekish cephalomancers attempted to capture and enslave one of these creatures. However, the beast ended up devouring its captors and escaping, taking out an entire coral fort as it went. The Qhekish still speak of that squid—Sellag, they named it.
