JACK
After all this is over, Jack is going to owe much of his success to the kaleidoscope wearing the scales of a dragon and a woman who has just turned into a volcanic crocodile. And you know what? Fuck it, he's so tired of the Hollowed Grounds and its bullshit, especially now that the bullshit has spilled into the desert. "Looks like it," he drawls, never picking up his pace as dragon and lial both take the opportunity to bumrush the mirage.
...Crab.
Mirage Crab.
As soon as Charlie gets close enough for her wings to ripple at the 'palm trees' of the oasis, the tentacles of the crab lash out to try and snag at one of her taloned feet. At the same time the illusion drops entirely, revealing the broad, flat shell of the creature and the maw it would very much like to drag a whole-ass dragon into. Has it bitten off more than it can chew? Almost definitely. Does it care? Not one jot.
Well, you've found the Mirage Crab! It tries to grab one of Charlie's dragon feeties with one of its tentacles!
Mirage Crab (uncommon) - The mirage crab has a large, flat body, over 5 ft in diameter. It has six legs, and two 10-ft long tentacles. It can be found on beaches and in desert regions, where it burrows under the sand to wait for its prey. The mirage crab can create a minor illusion around itself, making itself appear like any naturally occurring creature or object. lts preferred mirage is that of a small oasis, with the appearance of a pool of water over its mouth, and its tentacles appearing like two tall Palm Trees. When potential pray comes over to investigate or drink the water, the illusion fades away and the mirage crab latches on with its tentacles and consumes its prey with its sharp mandibles.
