Then you pressed onwards, soon encountering a psychic projection of a dread presence. > You see three red lights glowing on the surface of the water, arranged close together in a line pointing towards you. The sight of it causes strange sensations within your mind. You hear faint whispers of strange, otherworldly sounds. They grow louder and coalesce into a voice, echoing within your head. You can't understand the words, but you know what it says regardless: **"You are not like the others. You are from far away. I will taste you."** > > For each player who fails the INT check (Uhtred, Anonis, Bungus), the entity learns the answer to "What do you fear losing the most?" > > **"Intriguing. I wait to learn more."** The red lights disappear, and you feel the presence in your mind depart. Some of you were able to resist its will, but others had their minds invaded and memories plundered. Curiosity whetted, the entity withdrew and waited. Farther on, the water grew thicker, and wrong-feeling. The air smelled dank. You knew you were getting closer. Dr Bungus took a sample of the dank water. Soon, you encountered a pile of discarded items from doubtless enthralled priests: priestly robes and vestments, books and writing implements, necklaces and rings. Within the miscellany there was an intact [[Healer's Kit]]. Anonis' thaumatologist instincts told him there was something more, and additional searching revealed the [[Crescent Mercy]], a healing bracelet known to Anonis. Not long afterwards, you finally encountered the entity responsible for these eerie happenings: an ancient, mysterious, aquatic creature known as an uloth. Aided by two oozes and two quuthols – enthralled priests now fully transformed into slimy servants – the uloth tried to seize you and drag you into the depths, where it could study your minds for eternity. It was even able to briefly enslave Uhtred, who turned his sword against you before he was able to cast off the malign influence. The entire party fought against the slippery beast as it assaulted them both physically and mentally. Dynamo and Anonis were caught in its writhing tentacles, and the creature's mucus appears to have had an effect on their skin. However, this only brought them in close range of their target. Under sustained attack, the uloth siphoned the health of its own thralls to bolster itself – to no avail. The party vanquished the foul entity, and now they slump exhausted around its corpse, wondering what comes next. ![[uloth.webp]] <p style="text-align:center;">The uloth</p> --- ![[quuthol.webp]] <p style="text-align:center;">The quuthols (enthralled and fully transformed humans)</p>
