Sywren

Danger: Vorago

Overview

The Sywren transmits auditory and visual hallucinations through direct eye contact, shocking divers into a state where they cannot run while it approaches. Once in range it can transmit microbes that cause Contact-Induced Explosive Cytolysis. The survival rule from divers: shake your head violently, break the gaze, and it loses interest and floats away — though it may return later.
