Claw hammer

From Dragon Quest Wiki

The Claw hammer is a monster that appears in Dragon Quest IX. It is an unusual shark monster with sickle-shaped arms and countless centipede legs.

Characteristics[edit]

Claw hammers have the appearance of hammerhead sharks with purple skin and front-facing eyes, sickle-like limbs jutting out from their sides. They crawl about on countless legs like those of a centipede. The sharks are able to sweep opponents' legs from their low position and then move in for the kill.

Their cruel claws have scuppered so many ships that sailors are more scared of them than they are of storms.
