Siyokoy are sea creatures with scaled fish-like bodies but with a humanoid shape. Their bodies are decorated with long green tentacles and fins on several parts. They also have gill slits, webbed hands, and are colored brown or green. They can survive out of water for an hour before they dehydrate, which means death.
Siyokoy are horrors of the ocean that are said to drown mortals and eat them. They are often considered the cause behind tragedies at sea. Intimidating aquatic animals such as eels, octopus, rays and squids usually swim along with Siyokoy. It is also believed that Siyokoy have the power to transform into a human.
