Ecology: Aquatic grazers and scavengers, Stink-Fish can be found all through the Skull Island waterways. Slow-moving, they are fairly immune to the attacks of predators due to their unique defensive mechanism—the ability to evacuate a noxious cloud of waste and chemicals.

Personality/Motivation: Typical animal motivations.

Powers/Tactics: Non-aggressive, Stink-Fish will release a milky cloud of mixed waste and chemicals secreted from glands near the anus. Foul smell and tasting, this cloud is enough to deter most any predator, and will remain in the skin for some time, giving a constant reminder the the consequences of trying to attack a Stink-Fish.

Appearance: The Stink-Fish is a bulky-bodied fish with a humped back and barbels around the mouth. It is a blue-gray color, with thin white stripes and a white underbelly.

Designer's Notes: I built the Stink-Fish by scaling down the Eel found in the HERO System Bestiary and adding in a variant of the Skunk's spray power. The Stink-Fish didn't appear in King Kong.
