Emerged from the first tidal pools where land met sea, its hybrid form absorbing traits from both realms to become the living record of cryptid adaptation.
Chitinous armor that fossilizes and renews in cycles, bioluminescent markings that shift between marine and land creature patterns, and the ability to survive indefinitely in any aquatic environment.
Serves as a living archive documenting the hidden connections between water-dwelling and land-based cryptids throughout evolutionary history.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Behold Timeless Karkinos, the crustacean cryptid that crawled out of a primordial tide pool after watching too much Crab Battle from Metal Gear Solid 3. This chitinous nightmare is what happens when evolution gets high on kombucha and says, "Let’s make a crab… but ✨mythical✨."
Yes, we’re seriously treating a #96 tag like an ancient deity. No, I don’t get paid enough for this.
And so Timeless Karkinos scuttled forth from the cosmic tide pools, seeking a worthy bearer—or at least someone who wouldn’t lose it in a pond. Enter Elias Wise, a man whose disc golf skills were as mysterious as the creature itself (read: inconsistent). Legend says the tag chose him when he three-putted a 10-foot birdie, proving his ability to crab defeat from the claws of victory.
But does this crustacean’s new host have the shell to keep it? Or will he get pinched out by a better player?
