"The Kappa is a cryptid from Japanese folklore, resembling a small man with a turtle shell on its back, webbing on its hands and feet, plus a sharp beak. The Kappa typically resides in rivers and lakes and is rumored to drown unsuspecting animals and humans. However, the Kappa is an honorable creature, for if you bow to it, it will always bow back, spilling the water from the bowl-shaped recess on top of its head. Should the Kappa lose all the water on its head, it will surely die. Another way to buy time when confronted with a Kappa is to toss it a cucumber, supposedly the monster’s favorite food!"
