 A ruthless carnivore

One of the more exotic species from a once oceanic planet, that has been slowly drying out for millions of years forcing some of the inhabitants to evolve accordingly, this being the fiercest example on the planet.

Dryyli originates from the sea but evolved to hunt on land, though it cannot live without water for too long.

There's no telling how it may evolve from there. It is also an excellent swimmer, so fleeing into water from this creature would be a stupid idea.

The dryyli has four tentacles that has extremely poisonous tips, that it uses to kill its prey. The most interesting thing about this carnivore is that it uses telekenisis to pull prey toward it and then sting it with its tentacles, afterwards it telekinetically pulls the meat out of its prey to devour.

It has a large telekenetic organ close to the 2 focal points above it's waist (looks like big eyes), which is a valued merchandise for scientists and the likes, but it is its beautiful colourful skin/leather that most buyers request.

I love the concept and the description is really believable. Definitely a cool creature. One question, how does it move on land? I love how well you made the creature look fleshy and the eyes stunning. Great Piece.

If this isn’t one of HPL’s "Great Old Ones" it ought to be. The legend would be that when their planet dried out some of them made it to earth, aeons before mankind began - and ruled for untold ages - until we started to develop or until some cosmic catastrophe (like a huge meteorite or burst of cosmic radiation) caused them to retire to the depths of our oceans to sleep till their time comes around again.
