Anguila Sacudida
Electric Eel-like Wesen. (Spanish= Jolt Eel)

"Friday, September 18, 1891. Aboard the RMS Empress of China I met a very unique Wesen. I boarded the Empress last night from a merchant ship docked in Honolulu, and adjourned to the passenger quarters. The next morning I entered the dining room and sat down for a lovely pork filet and of course tea. As I was leaving, I could see into the kitchen where I saw two cooks yelling at each other over a spilled pot. During the altercation I witnessed the dark skinned Creole cook woge into a weird Wesen. It's only real change from human to Wesen form was dark-blue skin, with rusty undertones under the mouth and on the neck. The lips, eyes, and nose slightly swelled and small light-colored slits formed along the cheeks and eyebrows. The two cooks were each holding onto the metal counter when the human cook was abruptly thrown back, convulsing and shaking. The other cook then woged back and leant down and helped him up and he stopped shaking.

At this point the Wesen cook saw me and ran back into the kitchen. I pursued to figure him out. In a lonely corner he disappeared and then I was struck from behind on each arm with a fiery stabbing sensation. I almost blacked out when I turned and hit the attacker in the head. The cook fell down and warned me not to come closer. I assured him that I would not attack or hurt him, but he was still wary. "Filthy Grimm!" he shouted at me, I disregarded the remark and bent down to investigate him. I asked him what he was when he lunged, I smacked him again warning that next time he does that there will be a knife. The Creole was reluctant but said he was a Anguila Sacudida, a rarely seen Wesen with roots in the Amazon. He said that he could produce electrical shocks through tensed muscles in his arms and hands, which was why the other cook was shocked when the Creole's hands were on the metal counter. I let him go and we didn't bother each other through the rest of the voyage."
