Polymonstrum

== Description ==
=== Behavior ===
* hunt both on land and under shallow waters, using ambush methods from dense foliage, or shorelines.
* are highly aggressive and will eat anything if given an opportunity, with the exception of two things which they will never attack as well: their children and their own parent figure.
** are very good mothers, and very gentle and caring for their children.
** Any species can raise a s with zero risk of harm or death, a juvenile will imprint on the first living being it sees and defend them valiantly.
* If they want to eat you but dont have the opportunity to ambush, they will just sit there and stare at you.
* Their attacks are extremely precise, and insanely powerful, similar to a human being struck by a bullet train.
=== Artist Headcanon ===
* have no gender and reproduce asexually, the 4 spine antennae on their hips are baby s, they harden and then fall off and melt into tadpole s, which the parental figure cares for them from there. The parental figure is usually referred to as mother.
** Baby s CANNOT eat, they are born with no mouth, and must develop a mouth in time to eat before they starve to death.
** Two forms of s exist, one in which their shell is soft and used more to absorb sunlight for energy, and another in which the shell is extremely dense and hard to break. The variant depends on if there are any issues when being born.
* There is an empire state building sized creature referred to as the 'queen of s' that absorbs her preys intelligence and memories, named Polyphome.
