Ice Lake Guardian

 In the Ice Zone of Shadow Planet there is a lake that many people must travel to in order to progress in the main story line. On the bottom of the lake there is a underwater cave. This cave cannot be entered just by flying inside due to the fact that there is a current that pushes the player outward. In the cave there is a large serpent with multiple eyes, snapping jaws, and a powerful tail. This serpent is the cave's guardian and also the only way of getting inside the cave. The serpent can be lured out of hiding by dropping a green fruit that grows on the ceiling of the cave. Once the fruit is dropped into the water the guardian will swim towards the fruit and will hurt anything that gets in its way. The serpent can be grabbed and the player will be dragged into the guardian's den. Once in its den the guardian twirls in circles for the rest of the time and it is wise to let go of the serpent before it starts to twirl. The creature will not come out of the den to hurt attack or players, it will only attack if you are close to it. In the den, there is a red crystal required to complete the level. The guardian can be seen in this video:
