Characteristics

Born from the confluence of boiling thermal vents and ancient tidal magic, these creatures only surface during lunar eclipses. Their armored plating is said to be harder than forged steel yet glows with a soft, bioluminescent hum when prepared correctly.

Recipe Note

Sear the translucent tentacle segments over a fire of drift-wood until the flesh pulses with a faint violet light, then drizzle with essence of moon-water.
