River Prowler

Template:Class 2 FaunaThe River Prowler is a large, aggressive fauna species which dwells exclusively in the Lost River.

Appearance

The River Prowler has a thin, elongated body with many protrusions coming from both the top and bottom, and a spine-like structure visible within its transparent body. The head is fleshy red in color, featuring two round, yellow eyes, a large maw with many visible sharp teeth, and four tendrils trailing behind its head.

The majority of the River Prowler's body, including the internal organs, is transparent, emitting a faint white bioluminescent glow.

Part of its skeletal system is visible, although, oddly enough, none of its organs.

Behavior

The River Prowler will lash out its tendrils when attacking, and then pull them back. It will use its tendrils to pull in the prey, and then proceed to mow it down using its large maw. This behaviour is similar to that of the Reaper Leviathan.

The River Prowler will let out ghastly hisses and snarls should anything get too close.
