In Indian folklore, the Timingila or Timingilam (Sanskrit: तिमिंगिलम्) is a huge mythological aquatic creature that can swallow whole whales in one bite, as written about in the Mahabharata (Vana Parva 168.3). The Timingila is also mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam (12.9.16), Ramayana (Yuddha-kanda 4.114), Susruta Samhita (Ch.45), and Caitanya-caritamrta (Madhya-lila 13.142). In reality these massive eel creatures swim the oceans looking for prey. They are capable of eating a human in two bites and can even create a slight electrical field around themselves to incapacitate prey by stunning it. Absinthe Van Gothen fought timingilas when she came to the Sauvie Docks with the Night Stalker, Kendra Tallulah, in search of The Flying Dutchman. | In Indian folklore, the Timingila or Timingilam (Sanskrit: तिमिंगिलम्) is a huge mythological aquatic creature that can swallow whole whales in one bite, as written about in the Mahabharata (Vana Parva 168.3).
