A fearsome ocean predator, the Cetus is an enormous creature with the head of a boar, a long, serpentine neck, and the body of a whale. It is generally a deep-sea creature, hunting large prey like dolphins or groupers. Cetuses are known to ram into boats that they believe to be potential prey. If this causes the boat to sink or capsize, a Cetus very well may feast on the frantic crew as they struggle to reach safety.
