Tentacle is an Unloaded Keyword that appears only on 4 minions in the Decipher era - {{|Foul Tentacle}} and {{|Huge Tentacle}} from the Mines of Moria set, and {{|Reaching Tentacle}} and {{|Strong Tentacle}} from the Age's End set. The keyword was used to fit in with the Watcher theme, as both versions of the Watcher in the Water ({{|Keeper of Westgate}} and {{|Many-Tentacled Creature}}) have text that affects tentacles. No other cards relate to tentacles by name, although {{|Evil-Smelling Fens}} fits snugly into the strategy because of the tentacles' dependency on the Marsh keyword. The 4 Tentacles, as well as both versions of the Watcher in the Water, are also the only official minions with the race of Creature.
