;King crabs: Though identical to other crabs of the [[Notic]] intertidal regions, the enormous crabs of [[Ka'doloki]] dwarf their siblings, having massive legs and a swollen red carapace.
;Frost-mottled crabs: The serene crabs of [[Valho Coast]] have snow-white shells speckled with navy patterns. Crystalised ice sparkles on their ligaments, causing the creatures to move about stiffly.

;Spider crabs: The giant [[Lothos|Lothian]] spider crabs are an old and fearsome race. Fifteen feet long, they are terrible menace of the deep, and are not typically targeted by patrons of crab buffets.
