Filters of the Sea:
Sharculus are extremely important to the sustainability of the water life of many planets. In addition to feeding on the weak and old creatures of the sea, their unique biology has evolved to allow them to consume pollution. Sharculus constantly filters out the impurities of such bodies of water to promote the continuous growth of other wildlife for not only other races, but to sustain their large diets as well.
Hammerhead Sharks are agile swimmers due to the shape of their heads. They are able to gobble up an aquatic creature in one gulp.
Requiem Sharculus are short tempered and aggressive, even by Sharculus standards. They are so violent that even the nagaids tend to steer clear from them.

It can be cast once per day and lasts for an hour or until destroyed, whichever happens first.

Sharculus Skills
You are able to swallow a small monster whole to instantly kill it and heal for 10% of your health, or grab a medium sized creature with your jaws. If it is an aquatic creature, you can snap it in half and eat the entire creature in two turns to restore 20% of your health.
When in water your Movement becomes double.
Your speed creates a slight afterimage that allows critical hits to land only half as much.
When a Requiem Sharculus sees blood, they lose the ability to think coherently and succumb to their predatory urges, turning hostile to the bleeding creature until it is out of sight or it is dead. You gain a Plus Charge in your damage dice, but a Minus Charge to hit.
