Boss Monster Suggestion - Koalessal Squid (Sorry for the crappy art)


Recommended Posts

I really like SW so far but it lacks a few things:

-More monsters

-Giants/Boss monsters

-Squids and other slimey creatures

-A way to get tentacle spikes and spots (As far as I know)

So I came up with this aquatic and deadly distant cousing of the local Koalefant

 

The Koalessal Squid

(Again, sorry for the crappy art)

First of: This thing is HUGE. Okay, not that huge, stop imagining him that big.

He's as you can already guess a mix of a colossal squid and an Koalefant. His skin is deep blue and a bit purple with a few light brown (Like the color of the usual Koalefant) stripes and spots, but he gets a bit turquoise if he swims in light water (Color changing FTW). You mostly see only a part of his spiked body and some of his tentacles (Pictured on the right) if you fight him.

His tentacles are also his many trunks and he has a big beak with lots of spikes surronding it, but you can only see that when it's already too late he attacks you directly. I'm really bad at drawing tentacles, but he's supposed to have more ( I don't know how many tentacles a squid has, 6 maybe?) He has two very long normal tentacles like every other squid has, but with a few spikes at the top. The trunks are thick and wrinkled but long and they also have suction cups.

Squids have normally fins at the top of their heads but this one has elephant ears with a few bite marks from other, less succesful attackers instead of fins with which he can create a little gust of wind to push you away if you get too close for his liking. Now, I don't know how old a squid can get, but elephants get old. This means that the Koalessal Squid has some wrinkles, most notably under his angry and sad looking giant eyes to indicate that he's been around for some time. He can also dive and pop up when you least expect it, if his huge shadow wouldn't give him away. But you're able to overlook that if he's diving in deep water because of his natural body color.

He's capable of doing the following:

- Creating a small wind gust

- Hitting with one of his two big tentacles

- Hitting with his other trunk like tentacles (Has a chance to grab something from your inventory)

- Ramming your boat

- Biting you with his beak if he get's angry (Makes lots of damage)

 

His corpse floats on the water for a while after you defeat him, but be quick with looting him because a squid rots prettty quickly and a creature of such a size is an welcome feast for most water dwelling creatures.

He drops:

- Some meat

- Some tentacle spots

- A (Or more?) tentacle spike(s)

- One of his ears

His ear can be used as a sail (That's how big he is) or as a umbrella for heavy rain and hail. Latter uses more durability than simply using it as a sail

 

I just had this idea, and I admit I didn't think it really trough, but that's why I wanted to ask you guys if you liked the idea and what you would change/add!

And don't forget:

You're a kid now
