Phalagar

Phalagars were rare, magical burrowing predators that emerged in the Underdark following the Spellplague. They had a widespread reputation for the violent attacks they perpetrated.
==Description==
These monstrous creatures had squid-like bodies, capable of crawling through cracks and narrow tunnels. They had many long tentacles that were covered with small, acid dripping mouths.
==Combat==
Phalagar typically tried to slay a single prey and then drag it away to prey upon the corpse, though sometimes they would fight a group of combatants to the death. Their tentacles were capable of rending flesh from bone and used the acid they dripped to melt prey as they grasped them.
==Ecology==
These beasts lived solitary lives, lurking within large cracks, channels or wells that have dried up, or beneath the ground.
===Relationships===
Other creatures sometimes lurked near the hunting grounds of phalagars, seeking to steal away their prey or pick off wounded survivors. Chokers were one of the creatures most likely to do this.
