Colossus Raider

The Colossus raiders are a feared force within the consortium of Anasth, a maritime kulu consortium that dominates the Colossus Ocean off Praetoria’s northern coast, exerting control through piracy and manipulation.

Kulu are humanoid cephalopods capable of fighting on land but most dangerous in the water. Anasth’s raiders strike with precision and brutality, wielding multiple weapons with their arms and tentacles as they launch coordinated assaults on coastal settlements, merchant fleets, and anything else left unguarded. By the time they’re seen, it’s often too late. Their outriders have already breached the coast or taken position below the surface, ready to strike.

Though known for violence, the Colossus raiders are more than brute force. They use ocean currents to move swiftly and strike where patrols are weakest, exploiting trade routes and political fractures to extort rivals and destabilize ports. They don’t just hunt for plunder. They hunt for control.
