Overview
Skythopterygion atropos — the scythe-finned fate-ender. The male of a sexually dimorphic leviathan species that attacks in packs (shivers). Males are smaller and more agile than females, lack the female's tail sonar organs, and depend on females during ocean cruises. During hunts, male packs cooperate with a single female in comprehensive attacks. Multiple males fertilize a female's brood (partible paternity), with females competing to attract successful mates. Strikingly, the shiver leviathan's wing-like limbs resemble tetrapod ancestors — it may be Proteus's most humanlike organism. Assessment: sophisticated, dangerous predator that will attack even large submarines. Avoid.
Survival
Do not focus on fighting the males while the female is still present. Escape the pack as a unit.
