Before the time of piracy, when the sailors of the seas were just getting their sea legs...there were Kraken.

Kraken were told to be quite a unusual sight to sailors, very large beasts with enough strength to break a ship down into nothing.
The titanic squids of the sea were not the only creatures though that they had started to see...

sailors would tell of sightings, Kraken fighting large serpents and other large creatures for dominance over the watery depths, the fights would rage across the sea for months until one dropped dead.
Other tales tell of Kraken being the guardians of the ocean itself. Soldiers to the sea goddess Calypso herself, they were of great power and importance to her but were also a means of punishment for those who disobeyed or harmed the ones who had done no wrong on the seas.

Now there only seem to be 3 to exist. Others were hunted by greedy sailors for their thick hides and large amounts of food, they would blow the arms off and force the poor creatures into the shallower waters and beached.
Some had hunted them down due to fear of them, getting rid of them to have more power and go against Calypso who they thought had owned the sea for much too long...

The wretched Grim Reaper of the seas himself: Davy Jones is said to have one at his beckoned call. To attack those who jones finds fitting for such a gruesome end.

the rest of the book and knowledge has been lost to time...more will be added later.
