__NoTOC__
<table><tr valign="top"><td>
'''Paper Sea Creatures''' are created by the [[Life Aquatic]] system. They can be used to transfer designs to qualifying paper. Each sea creature type has multiple design options that can be changed using {{boldmono|[[WHISPER (verb)|WHISPER]]}}. The "octopus" creature type does not have plural options.
==Analyze==
<pre{{log2}}>
You analyze your dog whelk snail and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

A spire-pointed dog whelk snail has been captured and replicated by an Aquatic Life Device.
It is designed to be POINTed at a piece of qualifying paper and will transfer its design to that paper.

This particular snail will change the paper's LOOK description to:

<span style="color:blue">'''Wearing a tiny pirate hat, a spire-pointed dog whelk snail rides atop an eyepatch-wearing reef shark painted along the borders of the (paper adj.) (paper noun).'''</span>

Once it has done this, it will disintegrate.

Due to the nature of the snail, it cannot be altered.
You may WHISPER DESIGN to the snail to change the provided paper option to BORDER, CORNERS, HEADER or WATERMARK.
You may WHISPER PLURAL to the snail to change it to ONE, TWO, THREE, or SOME.
