Like their smaller kindred, giant leeches rely upon the cover of murky water or mud to catch prey of guard.

Their bite carries the disease red ache.[1] Giant leeches can be encountered in the swamps of Lamordia, particularly on the peninsula of the Isle of Agony.[2] They can also be encountered in Sri Raji, [3]
