Isitik

The isitik is a four meter tall and six meter long beast living in regions of the mainland of Ximizhlum with lots of water, namely the Glowing Coast, Tankshita, and Oknamizemoor.

Most of its time is spent walking through water, searching for fish and crustaceans to eat. It is capable of breathing both above and below water, but it is unable to swim, instead preferring to walk across the ground.

The way the isitik hunts is by using its long tendrils which protrude out of the mouth. With their slender and flexible movements, the beast is capable of catching prey that attempts to hide in tight holes.

Once caught, the tendril returns to the mouth, where the food gets liquified by acid. The skeleton remains intact and is spit out. If the animal is shelled, the isitik will bash the creature against a rock until a hole is made, then the usual process continues.

Isitik's senses are lacking, it has no sense of smell or sight, and relies largely on its tendrils for guidance.

For predators, the isitik is not worth the trouble. Its skin is very hard and it has very little meat to offer. As such, it's mostly ignored by everything.

Some examples of the beast has glowing lights growing from its body. Those are actually a parasitic plant.
