Clionid
Clionid
“The clionid feeds on plankton early in life. As it matures, however, it begins consuming flesh in order to satisfy its voracious appetite, using the tentacles extending from its head to latch onto prey. A winsome appearance that belies a vicious nature gives the colloquial appellation of "sea faerie" a chilling accuracy.

Additional Information
Clionids will target and consume any 
Deep-sea Leeches in the direct vicinity, gaining a stacking buff of 
Enlarge: "Body has grown to a massive size." If 3 leeches are consumed before the buff expires, the buff is converted to 
Fully Enlarged: "Body has grown to maximum size." and the Clionid gains the ability Buccal Cones which is an instant-cast action that deals 100% of the player's Max HP in damage, instantly killing them.
Exploiting this behavior provides a convenient way of leveling 
Blue Mage from level 70-80. Simply tag the Deep-sea Leech with an instant-cast ranged attack, such as 
Flying Sardine, and then lure it in range of the Clionid which will kill it, awarding the player the 
experience. This allows for long chains so long as the player is careful not to let the same clonid eat more than 2 leeches.
