Description

Resembling a Huge Crab this beast differs only in size, being around 20ft in diameter, and instead of 6 legs, 6 tentacles extend from the body of the crab, theses are not armoured like the body. The Cthulhu Crab is of unknown origin, but they have recently been discovered finding their way into fishing ports and taking large chunks out of fishing vessels. It is presumed that this is due to the smell of fish, but is this really a guardian of the seas?
