Kraken playing with its prey, back to labradorites. Not pictured - me running around in the snow in -32°C trying to catch some sunlight to film it.

WATCHER IN THE WATER

by Chris Cold

[vcreatures]

The class of Sirenia is a vast and wide net of varying aquatic humanoids. Highly dimorphic and adaptable, mermaids (or merfolk) can be found in nearly every aquatic body, be it oceans, which has the largest number of species, to ponds and lakes. This adaptability and dimorphic nature of the species has allowed them to thrive across the globe. Despite their vast differences in appearances, one thing you’ll see consistently across the various species of Merfolk is the unique “false face” adaptation.This illusionary facial feature is believed to have evolved as a defense mechanism. The “true eyes” are typically located on the far side of their heads. While it’s “false eyes” are situated at the front, like that of a human’s. These false eyes are highly sensitive receptors. 

Noted species in the attached diagram 

A. Sirenia Atlanticus

B. Sirenia Sphyrnidae

C. Sirenia Tetraodontidae

D. Sirenia Decapodiformes

E. Sirenia Pterois

F. Sirenia Eurypharynx

What kind of octopus is Kraken!Moon?

Between the pictures I'm definitely going to be talking about some facts on the octopi, and also how I incorporate certain aspects of them into Moon's overall design. Cause I'm a nerd and I want to.

Oops, I meant "they are adept at using tools to-" sorry, m a bit tired.

Many of the shelters that are made by coconut octopi are made using coconuts (hence their moniker), shells, and anything around they feel they could pull over their heads or curl up into! A really interesting aspect about that is also that when it comes time to move their shelters for whatever reason they may need to, they WALK. Thats right. THEY ARE BIPEDAL YA'LL.

There isn't really a lot known about Bioluminescent octopi. Most of what I saw discussed was how they are deep sea creatures, and how the glow could mean all sorts of things. Maybe for hunting like angler fish, maybe to scare off predators (or perhaps to distract like the Vampire squid does when it uses a cloud of bioluminescent mucous to escape), its also possible its for attracting a mate.

What it is to moon hasn't really been decided yet? I kind of like the idea that it tunes you into his emotions. The more heightened his emotions, the brighter he gets. Sort of like blushing. I don't know, I'm thinking on it.

Also yes, the little bit hanging off the side of Moon's head is actually fins. Fins like you might find on the ever adorable:

Dumbo octopus! But his are incredibly small and do very lil flapping unless he's embarrassed or something. Honestly I see them mostly as vestigial.

There are a lot of interesting facts about the Blanket Octopus. Just off the top of my head, the female blanket octopus is HUGE. The girlies can stretch up to 6 feet. The guys... welp, hahaha. They are like an inch. Very similar to a height difference you guys have already seen with y/n, sun and moon, right?

However whats really interesting is that they are immune to the potent and painful sting of a man-o-war jellyfish. And whats even MORE interesting is what they do with that little bit of immunity. You see they have a tendency to rip off the man-o-war's stingers and use them for defense. How cool is that? also, kinda crazy fucked up. Imagine someone just snatched up your arm and started beating people to death with it?

OKAY I'M OUT

This is so unique, octopus/kraken tentacles light fixture.

Inspired by the story of people holding up a huge "How am I going to be an octopus about this?" sign during a Bastille concert and getting the lead singer to sing it by accident. XD

This children's book on oceanography had no need to make the cover this badass, and yet they went all out on it. Legends
