{{name}} is a legendary {{favilink|giant clam}} and [[highly entropic beings|highly entropic being]] which resides in a pocket dimension called [[Tzimtzlum]].   


It is the only member of highly entropic beings which can perform the water ritual, also granting reputation with [[mollusks]].  This requires one dram of {{favilink|neutron flux}}.  It accepts all secrets and gossip and provides random secrets.
It sells fifteen items (non-restocking), each with a uniformly random tier and a 75% chance to generate {{qud shader|extradimensional|extradimensional}}, as well as the unique and remarkably expensive artifact {{favilink|Otherpearl}}.{{XML Reference

{{name}} is the only highly entropic being which can perform the water ritual, requiring one dram of {{favilink|Warm static}}.  Highly entropic beings accept all secrets and gossip and provide random secrets.
 
== Combat ==
 
{{name}} possesses the mutation [[Ley Shifting]], which it activates when a hostile creature approaches within two tiles. When damaged, {{name}} defends itself by summoning [[Extradimensional Hunters|extradimensional hunters]] from nearby giant clams:
 
{{qud quote notxml|&O0lam &yopens wide, and the nacre inside its shell glimmers with unseen light.}}
{{qud quote notxml|&cYou sense psychic presences foreign to this place and time.}}
 
{{name}} summons three extradimensional hunters when first damaged, and summons an additional 1-3 extradimensional hunters every 150-200 turns until the player kills it, leaves [[Tzimtzlum]], or dies.{{Code Reference
| class    = ExtradimensionalHunterSummoner
}} Each extradimensional hunter has a 50% chance to be a [[Cult Hunter|cult hunter]]; this is chosen independently for each hunter, so hunters from different cults can spawn together in a single summoning.
 
Like any other merchant, {{name}} will equip items it is carrying if it lacks an item in that slot. If an {{qud shader|extradimensional|extradimensional}} item which provides a mutation is equipped this way, {{name}} will gain access to that mutation boosted by its ego of 14-27. {{XML Reference
| object| 0lam
}} {{favilink|temporal fugue}} clones created this way will summon [[Extradimensional Hunters|extradimensional hunters]] when damaged as noted above.
 
== Trivia ==
{{Speculation|section}}
