Read this wiki article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuckalavee , its fairly interesting

[Deon]

It's strange that he lives in the sea but is afraid of running water...
"If you're attacked by a sea-dwelling creature, go in water and you'll be safe!" =)

Other than that, a nice creature.

Wait... It's an ELF?!

[Sean Mirrsen]

I keep being reminded of Solar Bean when I see anything with "Nuck"... There was this one member on the Supreme Commander forum that tried to tell something about a match he played, and he kept referring to the UEF battleship as "solar bean" and kept misspelling "nuke". Raised quite a cult following in itself, they even modden in the Solar Bean as a gigantic battleship armed with "nucks".

#12The Tale of the Nuckelavee

[andrew01292]

That is were I orgininally heard of it

[umiman]

Sean: Hahahaha! I remember that! They even made a religion out of it. Man, good times. I really enjoyed Supcom before they started wildly nerfing and buffing everything until it turned into what it wasn't supposed to be in the first place: a fast-paced, 15 minute RTS.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Yeah, TA was never like that. If we look at them like ship-to-ship combat, then SupCom started becoming more like a fight between gunboats in a lake, while TA, even with all the mods, was more like battleships and carriers slugging it out on the open sea.

[Keiseth]

Wow, that's a pretty wild creature, even for mythology. The fact that it has no skin is the most interesting part... yeah, we really need a Nuckalavee in DF. No way to mimic all of its powers, though. It can apparently move on land, if it has a fear of running water?

[Neoskel]

Ok, this is probably not the best place for this, but i think it's close enough (it's about an epic monster in DF) and i don't want to make a new topic about it.

Tentacle Demons can only be male.

Wouldn't a female tentacle demon be a bit...  weird? Tentacle demon herm, lolwut.

Also, harpies and antmen(sic) are only female. What's your point?

[Kagus]

Think bimbo octopus.  Instead of a beak, they have...  Well, something else.

[DreaDFanG]

mythology sorted the females as demons out long ago...

glances at a foolish villager that looks...strangly like the giant monster attacking his village...

beowolf...is a good example of this...killed by your son.
