Adriana moved cautiously through the darkness. Ever since venturing into the Underdark, she had learned that there was no way to know what was watching her from the darkest crevices and it was a matter of survival to look before she leapt. She pushed her way through a small opening and found that it opened into a larger cavern filled with a thick mist. As she breathed in, her muscles seized. Helpless to move at all, she watched in horror as five large tentacles descended from cracks in the cavern. In the Underdark you would expect to run into Drow Warrior, Duergar, and maybe even giant spiders. Today we are introducing to you a new type of nightmare that creeps around in the shadows of the Underdark: the Cave Kraken. The Cave Kraken, with it's confounding mist and tentacle attacks, was designed as a CR 13 monster and meant to be a hard solo encounter. Not much is known about this creature because not many survive running into it during their adventures. The Cave Kraken got it's name from a rare survivor of it's onslaught, they stated: "It looked like a giant mouth with tentacles. It was as if a Kraken crawled from the sea and made it's home on land, in the deepest darkest cave." Adventurers of the Underdark beware... There is a new reason to be afraid of the dark.
