Abyss lurkers are monstrous denizens of Krynn's deep oceans, resembling grotesque amalgamations of squids and other eldritch horrors. Their long, sinuous bodies are adorned with writhing tentacles, each ending in a spade-like appendage adorned with needle-like teeth and a suction mouth. The number of eyes and tentacles on an abyss lurker varies from individual to individual, adding to their eerie and unsettling appearance.

In their natural state, abyss lurkers possess translucent skin, blending seamlessly into the dark depths of the ocean. However, when hunger consumes them, their skin takes on a crimson hue, signaling their bloodthirsty nature. It is during this ravenous state that abyss lurkers become particularly aggressive, seeking out prey to sate their insatiable hunger.

Abyss lurkers hunt by ambushing unsuspecting creatures, using their stealth and aquatic prowess to surprise their victims. Once they latch onto prey with their powerful tentacles, they drain blood with their beak-like mouths, sustaining themselves while causing grievous harm to their victims. The act of feeding transforms their translucent skin into a crimson hue, marking them as formidable predators of the deep.

Few creatures dare to venture into the domain of abyss lurkers without caution, for these malevolent beings are relentless in their pursuit of sustenance. To encounter an abyss lurker is to face a nightmarish creature born from the darkest depths of the ocean, its hunger driving it to commit acts of unspeakable horror.
