The Behemoth is a kraken-like creature that lives in The Drink. It a somewhat of a legend amongst sailors and is worshiped as a god by The Cult of Bones, possibly due to the fact it can give sailors Behemoth Arms.

Characteristics

The Behemoth is fond of fish and will seek out any large source of them it can find, including passing ships. As it searches it lets out a ghastly moan that can be misinterpreted as whale sounds or, to the superstitious, ghostly wails. It has bad eye sight and will bump into ships multiple times before bringing the ship to a dead hault. Once stopped it will send up four tentacles, two on each side on the ship, to feel around for anything of interest. It will loosely grab anything on the deck including passengers and crates, however as long as it has been not been provoked you can slip your way out of its tentacles without it noticing. A light attack will also cause it to drop any thing it's carrying as long as it's not provoked. If attacked with cannons it will attempt to rip them out of the ship to prevent further attacks. After being provoked it will attempt to rock the ship back and forth to capsize it throwing the crew off of it. If a Behemoth rips off the arm of a sailor however there is a chance they will gain a Behemoth Arm. Once a tentacle has a firm grasp of something or it is damaged enough it will sink back down into the ocean.

History

The Behemoth was first seen when it attacked The Bocoe in The Jewel of the Dingo Isles Campaign. It stalked the ship in an incredibly dense fog until it ran into it multiple times. It then grabbed the ship stopping it completely. After McCoy fired an arrow at it to no avail, it started feeling around on the ship and grabbed McCoy and Captain Merci only for them to slip out of its grasp only moments later. It then started grabbing boxes of supplies on the deck. McCoy then knocked crates out of two of the tentacles and used Grandpa Ashes to paralyze one. Captain Merci, who had had his crew loading the cannons while this was happening fired upon 3 of the tentacles dealing 20 damage to two of them and scorching the third while covering it with Fish Soup. It then ripped out the front port side canon and sunk it to the bottom of the ocean. The behemoth then grabbed McCoy's right arm and ripped it off. However moments later McCoy grew a Behemoth Arm. McCoy then fought back using his new found abilities and the arms on the starboard side then both started focusing on him. McCoy then retreated down into the hold and the cannons were fired again dealing major damage causing three of the tentacles to sink back into the ocean. The remaining tentacle was then attacked by Jo Krisstal using his Dragonskin Bow. The tentacle then rocked the ship causing Octivias to fly off the deck into the water. McCoy then turned his focus on saving Octivias while Jo retreated to the hold and Kinnie Boots chased down and brutally murdered Jakelad who had moments earlier run out and started praising the Behemoth as a member of The Cult of Bones. The last tentacle then rocked the boat one last time causing McCoy and Octivias back onto the deck allowing the final blow to be dealt to the tentacle and causing it to final retreat to the bottom of the ocean.
