Kraken is a giant monstrous beast that dwells in the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean. Known for its size and stormlike outbursts of rage, it will strike against any ship that crosses its path. With tentacles the size of tree trunks the Kraken will crush both wooden planks and the bones of man, and no survivors will be left in its wake.
Mythology Meme - [2/8] Legendary Creatures;
The Kraken is a sea monster of gigantic proportions, said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland. Since the late 18th century, they have primarily been depicted as large, octopus-like creatures, allegedly based on sailors’ observations of giant squid. However, in earlier descriptions, the Kraken is more crab-like, with traits akin to a whale rather than those of a giant squid.
