DEFFENITION OF THE KRAKEN: The legendary Kraken are mythical sea monsters of gargantuan size, said to have live off the coasts of Norway and Iceland
Just by reading this definition we can tell that the Kraken was considered one of the most fearsome creatures of the ocean. Many sailors near Norway were terrified to even go out into the ocean for fear the Kraken would destroy there ship. The sheer size and fearsome appearance of the beast have made them common ocean-dwelling monsters in various fictional works. In German, Kraken (plural and singular: Kraken) means octopus, but can also be talking about the legendary Kraken. The kraken is also part of Greek mythology. One such story is where Poseidon sunk Atlantis
In Greek mythology the kraken were huge sea monsters, part human, and part giant octopus. They were Poseidon's greatest warriors in the battle of the gods. After the war, Poseidon was granted dominion over the oceans, but only one small island, Atlantis. When the people of Atlantis displeased Poseidon He caused a mighty earthquake which therefore, sank Atlantis beneath the sea; then he summoned the Kraken to feast on its inhabitants. The Kraken's Appearance is Similar to a giant octopus or squid, though earliest stories describe it as more of a giant crab. A symbol or attribute to the Kraken is fearsome determination to bring down ships and to never let go. The krakens main strengths are physically strong and agile. Secretive and capable of sudden attack. The kraken has a major disadvantage though. The kraken CAN be killed some way or another

I think I found something......
Imagine going out for a walk in the morning and being launched with sperm-whale schitt on your head!
And the planes would have a tough time too. Iceland's volcanoes are nothing compared to this!
