Fortify. The Scuttlegator retreats into its shell, raising its AC to 25, at the cost of being unable to attack. It is blinded and deafened during this time, yet retains its Tremorsense.

Stabilizing Legs. The Scuttlegator had advantage on Strength and Dexterity saves not to fall prone.

Retract. The Scuttlegator Fortifies in response to an attack. It can do this once per turn.

The Scuttlegator

Affectionately named due to its manner of locomotion, the Scuttlegator is another new-age krasis, fabricated from one of the Hull Clade's labs. Large, menacing, and foreboding, the Scuttlegator was created with the genes of crabs, crocodilians, and even turtle genes, purely to give the creature a wide array of defensive measures alongside their offensive means.

Despite their initially slow, lumbering size, Scuttlegators are extremely dangerous, as owing to their turtle genes, they can strike incredibly fast, and boast elongated necks to ensure they can snap up prey and foes alike. Pairing that with their immense biteforce, those foolish enough to get in one's way tend to face a grim, yet sudden, demise.
