These monstrous sea creatures are the most massive of all modern sharks and can reach 20 feet in length and weigh up to 5,000 pounds. To make matters worse, they are accustomed to hunting larger mammals and often have no qualms attacking humanoids, making them responsible for more coastal attacks than any other shark species. These attacks usually involve the shark moving in for a single bite before pulling back. It is unknown whether the sharks disengage as part of a strategy to let their victim bleed out and drown or because they simply find most humanoids unpalatable after the first "taste test." Regardless, this bite often proves too devastating for the frail humanoids to survive, and without immediate aid, the victim usually dies quickly afterward.
Should a great white shark commit to an attack, the results are devastating. They are unrelenting hunters, dismembering and devouring anything they view as a meal. Great whites are more than capable of dispatching medium-sized creatures, sometimes even hunting small whales. Even retreating to land doesn't guarantee safety from the great white's predation. Great white sharks are known to breach the ocean's surface to identify potential potential prey near the water's edge. They can then wait for their target to venture back into the water or even lunge out at their victim, biting and forcibly dragging it back into the bloody depths to be ripped apart and devoured.
