In Dungeons & Dragons, the octopus is a type of creature commonly found in aquatic environments. It is a small to medium-sized monster that is often depicted as a highly intelligent and stealthy creature. Octopuses in the game are known for their exceptional dexterity and ability to blend into their surroundings, making them skilled at ambush and escape tactics. They typically have eight tentacles, which they use both for movement and manipulating objects or attacking enemies. Their tentacles can be used to grapple and restrain foes, making them dangerous opponents in combat.

Octopuses in D&D are often portrayed as neutral in alignment, although their behavior can vary based on the specific situation. While they are not inherently aggressive, they can become territorial and will defend themselves if threatened. Their intelligence allows them to understand simple commands, though they may not always be easily trained or domesticated. Octopuses are also known for their ability to change color and texture, which helps them camouflage themselves effectively.

The creature is typically associated with water-based adventures, often appearing in oceans, lakes, or underwater caverns. In addition to their physical capabilities, octopuses have the remarkable ability to squeeze through tight spaces, making them difficult to trap. They also have a keen sense of touch and can use their tentacles to explore their surroundings in the dark, where visibility is limited.

In combat, an octopus’s tentacles can deal bludgeoning damage, and its ability to grapple can restrict an enemy’s movements. Some versions of the creature might also have additional abilities, such as ink cloud or a limited telepathic link, depending on the campaign or Dungeon Master's preferences.
