The History of the REAL Kraken is a bit different from D&D. Where did it originate, and how did it evolve into the Kraken we know today? How much did Dungeons and Dragons get it wrong?

Also, a bloodsucker does not need to be undead. There are plenty of creatures that drink blood in nature. Imagine the shock a cleric will experience when it mistakenly tries to turn a living creature that drinks blood.

Leeches and lampreys come to mind, while also conjuring the idea of a very messed up ttrpg.

Krakens are scary no matter what just being in water looking down in the darks and seeing something move

yeah, i think history vs D&D is a good idea. it’s interesting. and can be used to generate cool variations on tired tropes.

You could have Kraken be a class of creature or the name of Sea guardians. Maybe a bunch of great and ancient sea creatures who fought for territory, terraforming the land, and Sea with their great war, and with the end of it, came the lines drawn for the sea today. If they are revered as gods, different people, Kraks, fight to protect their deities ocean. Did jormangandr get involved? Separate the Earth into hemispheres of ocean to stop the fight? Man, I lovespitballing

One of the most original takes on the kraken I've seen this week. I like the historical deep dive format, too. Keep up the good work!

Pretty sure this thing, or at least its tentacles, have a cameo in Stephen King's "The Mist".

I am actually working on a Kraken that gives the feel of an incredibly powerful monster that only the best can attempt to take down for Fabula Ultima. It's going to be ridiculously powerful, but I think would be manageable to deal with. I already got the main body down. Now just to create some tentacles that convey a specific gimmick...

The real Kraken 😅 and in the same breath it is a myth. I'm regards to vampire Kraken. I think he got the idea from the real Vampire Squid. It is a beautiful creature youtube it and I think the bioluminescence and thr barbed tentacles would be a great add to the monster.

@thactotum 21 күн бұрын

I like the idea of the suckers being like leech mouths, but if I'm allowed to complete make up a creatures form... give me a island sized sea turtle shell back, with abalone shell belly plates, back flippers of the turtle or barnacle covered whale, with the eyes and mouth parts of a crab at the front of the shell (with maybe tentacle tongues with suckers that have jellyfish sting cells, and a spade tip with leech mouths at the end), and along the front edge of the shell to either side of the crab 'face' are anemone tentacles. maybe have more variants in number of eyes like spiders, and coloration and patterning like anemones and poison dart frogs. i can imagine larval versions up to titanic monsters.

Great Stuff!!! I love incorporating mythology and history in my D&D worlds. It helps break out of the Greyhawk/Forgotten Realms lore.

I would make the kraken an ancient arch druid who became one with the sea centuries ago. Probably make them nonbinary too. Add in them being known as a legend by underwater civilizations, that thought they were a really powerful arch druid fighting off monsters, but teally they were the monster fighting other sea monsters. Have them be able to absorb the spirits of creatures to be able to change into them. Add in a acient underwater city which they now use as a prison for some of the most evil sentient beings in all of the world. Make them use to be the protector of that city, until a great calamity hit, like a elder evil starts opening a portal in a crack near the city that the druid was to scared to do anything about, and that is why they protect the entire ocean now. Let us call them Rayn Tempest, Gaurdian of the sea. They could also be known for dealing with sea gods and underwater civilizations, making sure there is peace in the ocean. The players could have the option of even becoming their apprentices, to replace them one day.
