Carcinus the Giant Crab, otherwise known as Cancer.

This is my entry for ~Barrelex's Beasts of Greece contest. Perhaps not the most Greek creature, but I didn't feel like creating a four-legged creature or anything with wings, and you'd be surprised how few are left after that.

Quick bio: Cancer was crushed by Hercules stepping on him. Yeah, not the most dignified way to go either, in my opinion. I imagine this to be his reborn form, with stronger armour and less squishable body tissue.

This could be his rebuilt form...or maybe he just hasn't met the GSR yet.
