## Aquatic Beasts
The ocean can be almost be considered a world of its own as it is home to an almost innumerable variety of lifeforms and biomes. The creatures that call its depths home take many shapes and sizes and can come in a plethora of varieties. This guide provides an introduction to some of the most common (and dangerous) of these deep sea creatures.

### Sharks
Sharks are one of the most easily recognizable predators of the open seas thanks to their foreboding dorsal fins and fearsome jaws filled with razor sharp teeth. Of all the aquatic predators that pose a threat to humanoids, sharks are probably the most common. Their appearance also seems to vary depending on the region of the ocean they are encountered.

The heavily armored coral shark prefers to patrol the coastal regions near reefs using its armored shell as a means to blend into its surroundings to ambush its prey. Meanwhile, the open seas are home to brutish hammerhead shark which uses its armored skull to stun much larger prey while the legion shark relies on overwhelming numbers to attack creatures such as leviathans and whales.

Some sharks are also known to make their home in rather unusual environments. Lurking in the abyssal depths of the ocean trenches, the deep shark silent stalker their prey using their bioluminesence to confuse and disorient their prey. In the frozen waters, the frostbite shark disguises itself as drifting ice before striking out at its foes with its frozen jaws.

However, the rarest and deadliest of all sharks would be the megalodon. This colossal predator seems to have no fear feasting upon any creature that it sets its sight on. There are numerous accounts wherein this monster has sunken vessels with its colossal jaws feasting upon any sinking survivors.

#### Shark Tactics

Sharks are known for their keen sense of smell, particularly with the scent of blood. Although sharks rarely have a preference when initiatally hunting for prey, at the taste of blood, they tend to focus their attacks on a wounded creature.

This bloodlust also may attract other sharks within the vicinity. When this occurs, the sharks will often all attack the same target but will begin to fight over the corpse once the prey is slain. The only exception to this case is the legion shark, which relies on cooperativer tactics from its other kin. However, this inherent bloodlust does not seem to hamper its survival instincts for a shark will often attempt to retreat if its prey is to much to handle.

Sharks are often the prized mounts of merrow and sahuagin which use these creatures are mounts and guardians of their underwater settlements. The bravest and most powerful of sahuagin civilizations have even tamed the the great megaldons using them as beast's of war carrying their nautical war machines or equipped with battle armor.

### Octopus
The giant octopus is a rather clever aquatic predator. It possesses a strange physiology consisting of a bulbous head with a writhing mass of tentacles. These tentacles are lined with suction cups that latch onto its prey preventing it from easily escape. Once capture, the octopus begins to feast on that creature using its bone crushing beak to snap its prey in two. Despite its large size, the octopus the uncanny ability to squeeze into much smaller spaces allowing it to pursue prey hiding underneath coral.

Just like sharks, the octopus come in many different variations from the heavily armored and spined nautilus to the hypnotizing and bioluminescent siren octopus. Others  have heightened camouflage capabilities capable of disappearing into the shadows such as the Shadowtide Octopus while others have toxic barbed tentacles such as the Death's Sting octopus.

#### Octopus Tactics
The octopus is an ambush predator at heart using its elusiveness and intellect to help it quickly capture its prey. Using its ability to camouflage in nearly any underwater environment as well as its very limber form, the octopus always tries to position itself in an ideal location for an ambush. Once it catches a creature by surprise, it uses its numerous tentacles to latch onto its foes bringing it in to the deadly beak.

There are numerous instance where an giant octopus has attacked terrestrial prey. Many common accounts reveal that an octopus climbed onboard of a vessel and dragged off an unsuspecting victim. Thankfully these accounts are rare, but some believe that such encounters may have not simply been out of predatory instinct. Instead, some theorize that giant octopus actually revere and primitively worship krakens and similar entities and such encounters may have been under the influence of a kraken. However, such beliefs have not been confirmed and are purely speculation, probably in an attempt to explain the unusual intelligence that the octopus possesses.

### Leviathan 
Whereas the shark is the most common of all aquatic predators, leviathans are probably the dominant predators of the seas. These creatures are actually not fish, despite the appearance of some, but actually are large reptiles, somewhat resembling aquatic dragons or lizards. As reptiles, they still require air to breathe and must hold its breathe while underwater. Although they can hold their breath for extended periods of times, they rarely descend to the depths of the ocean for long  periods of times before needing to resurface.

#### Sharkfin Leviathan

The most common variant are sharkfin leviathans. These creatures seem to resemble sharks more than actual reptiles, hence their name. However,  despite the correlation of their name, they are actually quite passive creatures (at least to humanoids) preferring hunt smaller fish and other aquatic beasts.  In fact, whenever they are threatened, they prefer to flee, swimming at extreme speeds to escape. Because of their agility, they are often prized aquatic mounts to tame.

#### Serpent Leviathan
The serpent leviathan  is somewhat self-explanatory. Its most notable feature is its long snake like neck that its moves with surprising speed to snatch up prey. Although they tend to hunt for fish, they do at times prefer humanoid prey using their long necks to reach overboard and drag its unfortunate victim to the its doom in the water depths.

#### Whale Eater Leviathan
The largest form of leviathan are the whale eaters. As its name suggests, this creature dominates the natural food chain in the ocean hunting the largest of organisms: whales.  These monstrous leviathans have an unsatiable appetite consuming anything that comes along its path. Sailors warn of these beasts as they love to target small or medium-sized vessels snapping up chunks of ship along with any crew trapped in its reach. For larger ships, these creatures attempt to use its brute size and strength to capsize or breach its hull causing the vessel to sink as it swallows any prey that falls into the sea or attempts to escape via life boats.

### Whales

Whales are the largest of all aquatic beasts. Despite their fish-like appearance, they are actually closely related to terrestrial mammals. Much like leviathans, they must hold their breathe while underwater resurfacing using a blowhole located on the top of their heads. Whales are known to be very social animals living in large pods which provide protection and support to raise young.

\columnbreak

#### Harlequin Whale
Like many other aquatic beasts, whales come in many shapes and sizes.  One of the smallest whale  species are harlequin whales. They colorful whales are known for their extremely friendly personalities. It is not uncommon for these whales to approach humanoids out of curiosity and attempt to play harmless pranks or games with them hence coining the name harlequin whale. They also have even been known to aid individuals stranded amidst the waves from shipwrecks or pulled out by the tidal current. They are also a welcome presence along any coast as they pods tend to drive out larger, more dangerous aquatic predators. Despite being smaller than most aquatic threats, harlequin whales use their agile speed and coordinated tactics to harry its opponent until it flees.

#### Tusktooth Whale
Another species of whale, often found in cold climate, is the tusktooth whale. As its name suggests, these whales tend to have one or two spear like tusks protruding from its jaws that it uses to defends itself or challenge rivals. Unlike their smaller kin, the tusktooth whale tends to be a bit temperamental becoming aggressive if humanoids encroach on its territory for too long. When provoked, it will ram into its opponent with its lance-like tusks that are capable of shearing a humanoid in two or splintering the hull of a vessel.

### Killer Whale

The killer whale resembles the harlequin whale in many way; however, it is very sinister predator.  It uses its disarming appearance to its advantage often playing with its prey  to lead it astray while the rest of its pods moves in for the kill. There are accounts where these whale will playful leap out of the water as if to do tricks near a vessel but will progressively become more reckless using their bodies to capsize the vessel.  There is no limit to what killer whale will attempt to hunt, using their superior coordination and communication through echolocation to hunt its prey.

### Titan and Dreadnaught Whales

Titans and dreadnaughts are believed to be the largest  whales as well as the largest of all natural organisms, as the largest of these specimens dwarf the largest of vessels.  However, the size of these creatures are their only common characteristic. Whereas Titan whales are peaceful creatures feasting on small aquatic preys in colossal gulps using their baleen-filled mouths, dreadnaughts are viscious hunters, that hunt in small groups of 3(1d4). Although they hunt any prey smaller than them, they have a special appetite for humanoids often breaching the water to capsize larger vessels to acquire the tasty morsels within its hull. Because of this, these whales tend to be very rare and only found in remote expanses of the ocean they have been constantly hunted when spotted near civilization.
