Steel Krakens come from the same lifeforges that created the warforged titans and goliaths. While barely intelligent, they still were the perfect solution to Cyre's need to have automated patrols along its southern coast. Usually patrolling deep water for weeks at a time, steel krakens would come up under boats that did not have the Cyran symbol painted on the bottom and strike from beneath, sinking many ships. Unfortunately, not that Cyre is gone, these living weapons now strike at anything within their waters.
