Red Roper

A reddish colored monsters [sic] with multiple tentacles growing from it. Many researchers are finding great interest in learning about the mysterious life cycle of these monsters. A roper's tentacle will regenerate after being severed, so researchers are seeking a way to utilize its regenerative powers for the good of the people. One matter of interest - the dip around the mid part of the monster is not a mouth. It seems as if it doesn't require a mouth as it absorbs life energy from the prey it captures by using its tentacles.
