A Merwyrm miniature.

Merwyrms are Monsters of Destruction able to walk on land and swim in the sea that predates on the leviathans of the deep oceans. A nightmarish breed and primordial kin to dragon-kind.[1][2]

Biology

Their unnatural metabolism allows them to heal wounds after devouring victims whole with their hideous fang-filled jaws. [1]

They are ungainly and sluggish on land.[2]

The air around these sea-dwelling creatures is filled with an unholy stench of rotting flesh and brackish filth, a putrid smell that upturns stomachs and stings eyes, weakening and blinding anyone that gets too close to it.[1]

They have powerful tails that are strong enough to snap bones and crush anything that gets close to it.[2]

They have a chilling breath that carries the killing cold of the depths, exhaling it in deadly blasts that enfeeble and slay warm-blooded prey.[2]

Behaviour

They host a malice that comes from an endless struggle for survival on the ocean floor and lash out this hatred against any that dares to face them in battle. They are notorious for using their hideous jaws to latch onto their prey and tear away great chunks of flesh, a skill which proves invaluable against their usual prey. [1]
