The Asp Turtle is a colossal turtle that has a whole island on its back. The Asp Turtle does like to get and have a good swim every so often but mostly calm, quiet and keeps to him/ herself. This is a problem for sailors who board the back of the Asp Turtle only realise that what they thought was an island is in fact a turtle which dives down below, drowning the sailors. This is unintentional; they are just living they're happy relaxed life at sea.
