The Shocker Squid is a species of electrogenic cephalopod closely related to the Humboldt squid. They appear in the campaign to the 2023 tabletop roleplaying game Kong: Skull Island Cinematic Adventure, and are also profiled in its accompanying bestiary.

Name

The name of the shocker squid comes from their close relation to Humboldt squid and ability to send electromagnetic currents through their tentacles.

Design

The design of Shocker Squids does not drastically differ from that of regular squids, although they do have some key differences. Their entire bodies are blue and glow bright blue with biolumencent specks. Their eyes are yellow and, like their real-world counterparts, have horizontal slit pupils. Their arms are covered in suction cups on the undersides and the top of their head ends in several small offshoots.

Behavior

According to Monarch, Shocker Squids usually travel in groups, although they may occasionally be seen separated from their schools. They use their electrogenic pads to kill their prey. Different Shocker Squids have varying levels of aggression, with some having been reported as being friendly, while others have attacked divers in a violent frenzy.
