Giant Crayfish

[Mycanid]

Whoa ... that is one wierd looking shrimp. It punches through aquariums and breaks hands too?

Obviously, even though it may be intelligent in a certain way and exhibit complex behaviors it is obviously otnay ootay ightbray ... if you get my meaning.

Hmm ... wonder if someone could develop a high level spell for punching into the air and sucking all the oxygen out of it. That could be kinda creepy ... wonder where it would end?

Alright that's enough of that.

By the way ... the cooking comments at the bottom of the wikipedia page made me lose interest almost completely. :\ Blech....

Nasty Buggers.

A Recent sci fi/Creature feature novel, Fragment by Warren Fahy, features an island of nasty critters, with at least one evolved up from creatures similar to the mantis shrimp...

I think I included a giant goblin shrimp in this: TERRAFORMER 8 - Aquatic Xenomorphs - Blue Devil Games | RPGNow.com but maybe it is still waiting on my old hard drive for someone to give it a poke.

I have nothing to add, except to say that I think monsters like giant crayfish, giant frogs, giant spiders, and giant crabs would be some seriously scary stuff. When I was 12, I didn't think too much of these monsters, but my opinion has changed; these days, I love stuff like that.
