They are purple in color with pale yellow undersides, have a long neck, a fin on its back, and webbed feet. On its head, it has a tall crest and a pair of long purple horns. Its crest, fin, and webs on its feet are all colored teal.

The abyss diver also has access to ice magic to freeze enemies solid, consistently casting [[Crackle]] in each numbered title. Originally it was the weaker predecessor of the [[seasaur]], but it has since become the stronger variant as of {{VIII}}. | ||
