newmonster   "Giant Crab"
descr        "The Giant Crab likes to wander along the coast in its search for rotten fish.  The reason why fishermen don't throw the fish remains in the sea is that the Giant Crabs hunger for rotten fish.  Once a Giant Crab has discovered it can find fish remains close to a village, it is likely to return and eventually it will find the village and raid it in search for more food.  Trying to fight off a Giant Crab is usually pointless, because its very thick armor makes it very difficult to harm with normal weapons and the crab's claw is powerful enough to snap a human clean in two."
