| Character: | Nine-Headed-Hydra |
| In Medusa Island: | The creature was a Nine-Headed-Hyrda though previously it had been Ben Cattlegrid the rather eccentric farmer who owned most of the east of the island. To say that a Nine-Headed-Hyrda is big is a bit like calling a blue whale a cute little goldfish. A Nine-Headed-Hyrda is in fact extraordinarily, massively, hugely gigantic with a little bit added on. Its body looks like an overgrown dragon, with rough scaly skin and a long spiky tail. At the other end, of course, are its nine heads. Each of these has an immense horn sharp enough to rip open a submarine and a mouth full of flesh-shredding teeth. Should any of its heads be knocked off in battle the Hydra simply grew a new one—a useful feature when there’s a lot of fighting to be done. |
