Characteristics

fla The crabby 'crayzee uses it's murky brown shell to camouflage itself against the rocks in deepest ocean before delving our and grabbing at divers with gruesome claws, quick enough to grasp and attack twice in a single turn. Their claws also act as massive conducting rods, allowing them to slap down enemies with an electrifying lightning strike. They love to dance a way that's so weird that it drains adventurer's magic points at the mere sight of it.
