About this 3D model

The **Coral Wyrm** is a deep-sea ambush predator, its armored hide indistinguishable from the coral reefs it nests within. When resting, its barnacle-crusted body appears as nothing more than reef shelf—but when prey comes near, it explodes into motion in a flurry of snapping jaws and crushing claws. Its armor is as much a prison as a protection. Barnacles, calcium layers, and fossilized reef form a living shell so dense that the wyrm must periodically molt it in a violent display of self-preservation. Though lacking in speech or traditional draconic intellect, it is cunning, and it uses its **grapple-and-swallow tactics** to thin out hunting parties before dragging them into reef tunnels where no light dares shine. Among sailors, its name is spoken like a curse—**"Mind the reef, or feed the wyrm."**
