Tidehermit

A big red hermit crab living in a conch it took from something much larger. It keeps to the tide: when the water comes up the beach it pulls into the shell and nothing gets in. A hard gust rolls the shell and tips it out.

How it fights

At high tide it hides in its shell - ripples show the water is up and your spells barely scratch it. When the tide drops it comes out, raises its big claw while a short line marks the lunge, then lunges and snaps.

Where to find it
