A certain film traumatized an entire generation of Ancient children, instilling overwhelming terror of diving, swimming, and even bathing...

...and they had reason to fear, for it's never safe to go back into the water...

...ESPECIALLY IN YOUR OWN HOME!!!

Tublanteans are stocky, scaly, man-sized humanoids of the aquatic persuasion.  They possess freakish dimensional-shifting capabilities, in that they can instantly teleport into—and navigate within—bodies of liquid no deeper than 1'.  When warping into bathwater (which happens to be their preferred method of predation), tublanteans automatically Surprise their quarry.  They suffer no penalties for teleporting "blind", and their abilities have a 25 mile range.

Tubleanteans are nigh-impervious to conventional bladed weapons and firearms; only To Hit rolls of 19 or 20 inflict such damage against them.

For reasons unknown, tublanteans eat everything but their victims' heads.
