Krakens | Pathfinder Lore

On a dark and stormy night in The Rowdy Rockfish, seated next to a sputtering fire, the Guide tells tales of the leviathans of Golarion's oceans: the krakens. Some think that these titans of the sea are little more than oversized squid, but they rarely get the chance to regret the extent of their error whilst being devoured by an impossibly large beak.

"A kraken is a giant squid that's drunk a few ocean's worth of nightmare fuel." --Best summary I've heard.

[@DEricTodd]

Loving this binge I'm on. Very pleased to have found this channel

The Kraken, the amazing result of the little-known tryst betwixt Gozreh and the Pirate-Queen whom touched both their hearts.
Besmara, pushed beyond her limits & skills, having to warm the cold frozen heart of the sea, (hidden in the deep), with tales of heated boarding battles upon the deck of her prey. While concurrently, soothing the plasmic-hot heart filled with electric energy, (being trapped within the turmoil of repetitive gigantic ball-lightening strikes crashing into a planet-wide tsunami), all bluster yet calm by Besmar's gentle caresses as cool as a winter breeze rolling off the surf upon the shore during false dawn.
Perchance you'll gift us with a rendition of the Otari Nursery Rythm.

I was expecting you to be kraken at least a few jokes. But alas...

[@theloretour]

Now that would have been an ink-redible development…
