Description
Spawned by crossbreeding mortal races with Aboleth DNA, this massive walking fish beast stands at upwards to 10ft in height with slime coated pale skin and a distended stomach that bloats with poisonous gasses. All intelligence the creature once had it removed in place with a voracious instinct to consume and kill indiscriminately.
It's body is long and massive with translucent spiked fins flowing down it's back. At the base of its fish-like tail the Cetus Spawn stands atop two massive hind legs with clawed feet that dig into the ground below it. It's upper body has both small fins for swimming with skinny vestigial arms hanging underneath limply grasping at it's prey. It's face ends in a large circular maw of teeth that can consume wayward travelers in an instant.
Reports of this creature suggest it takes the qualities of a human, sturgeon and lamprey eel and combine it into a rampaging fish-like T-Rex that can threaten adventures both on land and in the water.
