Twenchok

The twenchok was an amphibious octopus-like cephalopod native to the water world of Sedri. It had eight tentacles, four of which it used to move across land. It also had four eyes, spaced around the top of its head. Though normally black, it could camouflage itself to sneak up on prey. It was equipped with a defense mechanism that shot quills that could be discharged singly or in volleys; if attacked, it would retreat while firing these. At least one twenchok was able to sneak into the Imperial aquatic garrison on Sedri.
