Notes
- This variant of King Crab of works in tandem with its mate, a monstrous 'Queen Crab.' King Crab is an aggressive crustacean that uses its claws and the ability to slam its heavy claws down to crush its target.
- King Crab's reinforced shell allows it to absorb the brunt of attacks, reducing the actual damage. In the event King Crab loses it mate, it will stop trying to defend itself, longing to perish, but not before in a rage trying to kill whoever caused its mate harm.
