Galar#351Isle of Armor#129Hyperspace#066

Its tentacles tear off easily, but it isn’t alarmed when that happens—it knows they’ll grow back. It’s about as smart as a three-year-old.
Shield
It’s very curious, but its means of investigating things is to try to punch them with its tentacles. The search for food is what brings it onto land.
