Kantrofarri
The Kantrofarri, also known as dream crabs, were predatory creatures that resembled misshapen hands. They fed on humanoid brain matter. Dream crabs hunted by using telepathy since they were both blind and deaf. Once they latched on to a victim, they would wrap themselves around the victim’s head and pacify them by placing them within a telepathically induced dream state. While subdued, the dream crab would then drill into the victim’s temple and slowly liquify their brains for consumption.
The crabs could be fought by the victim realizing that they are in a dream. The crab could counter this attack by placing the person in a dream within a dream. If the victim were to successfully wake up from the dream, then the crab would die.
