Observation

Lulled to Sleep - A sleep-inducing substance contained in this monster's bivalve prey accumulates in the body and reacts with microbes to form a glowing powder visible in the countless gills of its mouth, neck, and tail.
Mermaid Hair - Although the appendage on this monster's head looks like little more than a purple fin, it is actually lined with countless spikes that can be released like arrows in a ranged attack.
