#pharyngeal jaws have that function that they grab things in the mouth and drag it down. the tentacles serve the same purpose

idk if youve answered this before since its one of the coolest eel facts, but does talas have a pharyngeal jaw? 👀
He does not! The pharyngeal jaw mechanism in him is replaced by the tentacle hell in his chest (since he has that, having a pharyngeal jaw would be really redundant since the tentacles serve the same purpose and have an absurd reach)
Fun fact, when I first made him and first tried out the eel vibe for him but couldnt really give him a pharyngeal jaw I gave him the mask as a design wink to the ones eels have. So legally his mask is like his second jaw :]
