Overview

This Kreature is the meta-form of Kelpos. It stores up chloroplasts from the aquatic plants that it consumed during the previous stage in its life cycle. Upon metamorphosing, the chloroplasts merge with it on a genetic level, allowing it to photosynthesize. This Kreature can survive in both saltwater and freshwater. It will protect its turf aggressively, luring intruders into a false sense of security, then entangling them in its hair-like leaves and finishing them off with a swipe from its retractable claws. It will then drink the victim's blood for additional nourishment.
