A tentacle

The Tentacle is an indigenous animal of the planet Na Pali. It resembles a squid and has three tentacles attached to a flat "base". The Tentacle is always connected to a ceiling, and is mostly found in closed environments, such as caverns, houses, and factories. This animal shoots thorns with its central tentacle which do moderate damage.

Tentacles are fairly weak, and are usually best taken out with a fully-charged Dispersion Pistol seconary shot, time permitting. Otherwise, in order to properly "headshot" a tentacle, the shot must land near the top of its main base, right before it flattens out against the cieling.

They are typically ambush predators, and will hide in obscure, out of the way places and generally be a nuisance. They tend to appear sporadically throughout most of the game, including Rrajigar, Chizra, the Sunspire and Dasa Cellars.

Though it is not used, the Tentacle does posess a movement animation, showing it crawling accross a cieling seemingly with the suckers on the top of its head, visible after the tentacle is killed. Due to the nature of Unreal's collision detection, it was possible for a dead body to land on a player's head and stay there, a phenomenon occasionally experienced when shooting Tentacles down from the cieling.
