Description It dwells in caves. Dangerous, but it's not big enough to be classed as a leviathan

--DATABANK--
A large predator that dwells in deep water caverns. So far only one is identified, at the deeper region of the Wattage Lake.

Esca: An esca is connected to it's forehead by a long modified fin spine capable of extending to up to 100 meters, presumably used to lure potential prey to it's lair. When attacked physically, it can let out an electric shock that covers a medium range, not only it deters parasites and groups of attackers, but also temporary disables electronics.

Fin: Front fin resembles that of a typical dragon wing. While not particularly strong or fast, the spine at the end of both fins helps fend of attackers on the side. This pair is mainly used for maneuvering, while the smaller pair at the back is used to propel forward.

Jaw: Resembles a Venus flytrap. Have merely only 8 large teeth, for a large predator. But it shouldn't be underestimated: It has a bite force of 3500 PSI, and is tougher than grade 4 titanium alloy.

While it can decently swim in a straight line, changing direction is a problem for it - divers should use this to their advantage. Quadeels in the area will attempt to attack it in groups, providing further distraction. Worth noting that it hates direct sunlight, meaning it won't swim anywhere near the surface, even if it did, it wouldn't take long for it to give up and retreat. Please note that it's immune to sunlight, it just happens to hate it.

Assessment: Potentially lethal, neutralizes electrical equipment
