Translations:Codex: Leyak/16/en

A leyak’s sting serves two purposes. Contact with the nematocysts in a leyak’s tentacles delivers a dose of venom with highly specialized effects. On the yukkoth, this sting causes increased jelly production, generating more food for the leyak. On the predatory fish of Mome’s skies, this venom results in muscle paralysis, generally causing the fish to fall into the yukkoth’s mile-long mane of drifting tentacles, where it would be slowly digested. A leyak is capable of producing the same venom orally, though without hard teeth or bones, they lack an efficient delivery system in the wild. Humanoids who have been exposed to leyak venom have described its effect as mildly hallucinatory, mentally relaxing, though still delivering the effects of muscle paralysis and increased fluid production.
