=====Hudoviathan===== Named after its believed origin in the Leviathan's Abyss, the Hudoviathan is a creature not to be taken lightly. Its ability to control water and create inescapable whirlpools is a formidable challenge. {{ hudoviathan.png?450|Hudoviathan Reference}}Taking down a Hudoviathan is not just difficult, it's excessively so, although not impossible. It's a rare sight to see a Hudoviathan venture beyond the borders of Whirlpool Harbor, a testament to the strength and willpower of the Cetun [[Astrali]] warriors. Their mastery of tactics to take down or divert these creatures has kept most of them at bay. However, it's believed that a few have managed to slip into places like the [[Bottomless Depths]], a reminder of the challenges of protecting such a vast body of water. If a Hudoviathan is encountered in the wild, the best course of action is to avoid it at all costs or flee if possible. Engaging in a fight with this creature is not recommended. However, if a confrontation is inevitable, the best strategy is to weaken the creature's body movements with items until escape is possible. The only known method to permanently eliminate a Hudoviathan is to use elemental magic to boil its essence. -------- =====Species Research===== //Thanks to the diligent work of various [[Astrali]] researchers on [[Stellagos]], the following has been found on the Hudoviathan.// **Creation:** Unknown \\ **Origin:** [[Leviathan's Abyss]] \\ **Flair:** Elemental Strength \\ **Lifespan:** Unknown \\ **Height Range:** 20ft (610cm) to 50ft (1524cm) at the shoulder (Estimated) \\ **Diet:** None (It is not believed that a Hudoviathan needs to eat to sustain itself, as long as it is in a body of water.)
