Game summary for February 20, 2014, Carrion Crown Adventure Path campaign, Wake of the Watcher adventure; PCs included Brutus Bonesmasher (human fighter), Dario Malavasi (human oracle), Emilian Sandulescu (human paladin/ranger), and Malthus Brightray (half-elf cleric), accompanied by NPC companions Nyssa Pagonis (human cleric) and Pavlos Zervas (human fighter/rogue).
The team engaged in a quick, violent battle with the cultists of the indomitable sea! Pavlos proved his worth by taking one out with a dagger in a single round. The cultists injured several of the party but were no match for the team.
The group then discovered a large sliding secret wall that folded back to reveal a hidden sanctuary dedicated to the demon lord, Dagon! The bloody altar bespoke the kinds of rituals held within. All around the walls were disturbing carvings of devilfish, krakens, octopi, squid, and other bizarre creatures including fish-men mating with human women. Entering the area seemed to summon an aberrant monstrosity, a chuul of incredible power called the Scion of the Sea! The monster snatched up Nyssa and Dario in its claws and began crushing them. It transferred Dario to its paralytic tentacles and began consuming him while it continued fighting! Brutus found it resistant to his flaming hammer, which hampered Malthus flame magic as well. Pavlos flanked the creature and learned it had fast healing. The fighting was intense, but Emilian began to smite it and eventually brought it down!
The group then entered another chamber and found Rufus and Imelba Tulby waiting, frightened, on a bench. They learned the couple were trying to “foster” their 3-month-old daughter to The Neighbors down bay, whomever that is. The team found The Neighbors had not shown up to claim the girl and that Father Voltiaro had gone to Undiomede House to try and contact them. The family was to wait here until he returned.
The team then went and opened another door and discovered seven neatly arranged decapitated corpses!
