A giant octopus is approximately 80 ft long, dwarfing small sailing vessels which are inevitably splintered by the beast's devastating tentacles. They are reluctant to crawl on land but can do so for short periods if sufficiently enraged or hungry. Their Tentacle attacks have a 15 ft reach and Cause Injuries on a natural 19-20 attack roll. They swallow their target whole on a natural 19-20 Bite attack. A swallowed target may attack the monster's guts with a small weapon such as a dagger, suffering 3d10 crushing and acidic damage on the monster's turn. A severely injured giant octopus will flee, releasing a 200 ft radius cloud of black ink, and regurgitate any swallowed (but fighting) opponents. Any attacks in the inked area suffer a 33% miss chance.
