=__The Kraken __= - the great monster of the sea

=__Origins: __= The Kraken started as a legend with icelandic sailors. It is know today as the giant squid or cephalopod, which measure about one mile. But, in the legends they say one could be as big as a small island. It may be that actual giant squids were acting the ships mistaking them for whales. This is either exaggeration or truth who knows?

= __Appearance: __ = The sailors tell us it looked lie an island, today's scientist tell us it looks like the giant squid, one mile long, but movies tell us otherwise. In the Clash of the Titans (1981 version), the kraken appears as an actually monster and instead of have millions of tentacles, they portrayed it with arms and legs. But, this isn't a typical portral.

Clash of the Titans (1981)

=__Mythology:__ = The Kraken is not mentioned much in Greek Mythology, He is only mentioned(he is not mention by the name the Kraken but we can assume) in [|The Legend of Perseus].
