Contrary to what your mom told you, monsters *do* exist, and as a public service I am going to prove it to you. You will never sleep again thanks to a new weekly feature on the most terrifying hellspawn evolution has ever come up with.
So, picture this; you’re out for a nice swim on a calm summer day. You’re about a nice thirty or forty feet out, far out enough that you can’t see the bottom anymore in the murky, deep blue see.
Which is when it gets you.
From the black night of the abyss, a massive open mouth comes surging towards you. Before you can even scream, you are impaled from both sides on massive tusks and sucked down the worse waterslide you’ll ever see, then landing into a bath of battery acid and razor sharp rocks which pulverize and dissolve you as you figure out a way to die.
You’ve just become the dinner of a particularly large species of dragon, the Styxosaurus, a forty-foot long monster that more commonly preys on whale-eating giant squid, dolphin-like ichthyosaurs and noteworthy republican Chuck Norris.
They are among the few and proud apex preditors not to be killed by humans or orcas, for obvious reasons. With razor sharp teeth and eyes that can pierce right through your soul, the Styxosaurus is among nature’s ultimate ocean hunters.
Because of the elusive nature of gigantic monsters that eat your nightmares for lunch, relatively little is known about these massive undersea carnagevores. To date, not a single specimen has ever been brought down by man-made weaponry, and while reports of napalmesque fire breath are contestable due to a complete lack of survivors we can safely guess that looking into those cold eyes is likely enough to induce death in puny humanoid lifeforms.
Have a nice swim folks.
Giant Lizards shall soon rule the Earth!
