The Kraken of Genod

== "He fought the behemoth to a standstill, then gave his life to defeat it." ==
The Kraken of Genod was a massive sea creature and one of the Seven Leviathans. It resembled a supermassive squid with a bulbous and overly-expanded body, though it differed from conventional cephalopods by having dozens of massive, barbed tentacles.
=== History ===
The Kraken of Genod plagued travelling merchant cities across all seven seas, preying on ships at night when their defences were lowered and vision was reduced. It claimed thousands of ships and dozens of cities before its eventual death, having been a threat to seafarers for hundreds of years. Some sailors estimate its age as over a thousand, presuming the mentions of the leviathan in the Hebrew Bible to be the Kraken, or further still, the Babylonian sea goddess Tiamat, who took the form of a giant sea serpent to slay her husband's murderers in the book Enûma Elish.
=== Death ===
The Kraken of Genod was killed by the legendary harpoonist Robin in a battle that lasted all through the night and following day. He fought from the floating city, The Nascent Dawn, and slayed the beast before it could kill any of the ten thousand refugees aboard the city, tragically dying in the process.
