Level 268

Wild
It seems we Survivors have delved too far, and roused a phantasmic new sea-monster from the depths. Paleoctopus aquacaptor uses its chromatic camouflage to strike from out of nowhere, seizing the unwary in its crushing tentacles, two at a time. Its fearsome beak can crack the toughest shell or armor to devour the soft innards of its captives. In the rare event it needs to retreat underwater, Palaeoctopus can use its siphon to blast a threat backwards and jet away with surprising speed. Those tentacles let Paleoctopus scale sheer cliffs to drag itself out of the sea, though it’s understandably much less agile on land.

Domesticated
Its natural toxicity makes Paleoctopus especially difficult to tranquilize and tame, so sedating one isn’t for the faint of heart… You have to let it drag you in close for a crushing bite, and feed narcotics into its maw while keeping clear of that deadly beak. Manage to tame a Palaeoctopus, and you’ll never want for ink again. Your new cephalopod supplier can be gently coaxed to provide any color of ink your heart desires. While it may not set any land speed records, Palaeoctopus can get you up cliffs and over walls… or onto a moving Ship or platform saddle. Above or below the sea, this formidable mollusk can take a lot of punishment. Just make sure to hold on tight if it uses its underwater jet-propulsion.
