Description
Off the coast of Nihon, strange tales revolve around a mysterious creature that walks along the waves. Sailors tell stories of a massive giant that appears seemingly out of nowhere, aimlessly wandering, patrolling its domain for an unknown purpose. Those who interact with it quickly find themselves deep in a watery grave, but its not a malevolent beast as the stories would say, as it only lashes out at those who draw its attention. Then again, its hard to say what exactly catches its eye in the first place. Whatever the case, the sea giant is best left alone, content to walk the ocean.Related content

I’ve actually seen this image used multiple times to portray the One Piece “Florian Triangle” monster. Supposedly about 56,000 meters in height and matching a similar faceless description

Huh, yeah so it is. Kinda wished they credited me, but at least one guy kept my signature in the image.

I think that your image looks a lot better than what the actual creature looks like x3

Haters gonna hate.
But jokes aside, I like the lore on this one. What us Urth? Is it a novel?

Ah, I see.
So you're creating a setting of a world but there isn't a story or two that depicts the adventure of certain characters, am I correct?
I just wanna clarify so I will not Google high and low for a book

I am currently writing stories for it, but it's a little slow going thanks to RL interference heh.

Kaiman123 In reply to DarylChin [2015-06-04 05:30:54 +0000 UTC]
But for a more clear response, no. There is no vore/digestion in Urth, despite the inclusion of nagas and the like.

Well there are certain people who would use such settings for their fantasies. Sometimes it ruins the story.

Oh don't you worry. Urth is a fantasy setting, not a fetish setting.

Good thing you have a next to zero chance of running into these kinds of things.
Unless you are EXPLICITLY trying to.

okay so this thing that seems so simmilare is a umibozu a mythlogical creature that will kill you one way or another, they usualy are sea fairing spirets that cause much trouble to salors. Since ender men can't survie water I kinda doubt they could ever go after sailors
