They are amphibious predators, which appear near {{L|Caverns|subterranean}} {{L|water}}. Aside from being bigger and meaner, they're essentially the same as regular olm. They can dive, and breathe underwater with their gills. While real olms do have eyes, they are supposed to be heavily underdeveloped leaving them essentially blind, but there is nothing in the raws to make the in-game olms hunt through scent or sound, so their eyes work fine and they can be blinded. Real olms spend their entire lives underwater, but the in-game giant variety have absolutely no trouble crawling (snaking?) their way onto land and into your fortress, causing havoc and unexpected <s>death</s> {{L|fun}}. |
