Two strangers awaken in a cursed village as an ancient sea god, Shoggdhrashogg, begins to stir


Author's Note: Two strangers awaken in a forgotten coastal village, with fragmented memories and a dreadful sense that something is terribly wrong. The tide is low, and strange formations of black coral begin to emerge along the shore — structures no one remembers ever seeing before. The villagers avoid speaking of “the name that must not be said,” but whisper of the return of Shoggdhrashogg, an ancient entity slumbering in the ocean depths, feeding on human memories. As the players explore the village, they uncover that their presence is tied to an old pact meant to keep the creature asleep. Each night, the visions grow stronger, reality begins to unravel, and time seems to rewind. Now, they must uncover the truth — and their role in this eternal cycle — before Shoggdhrashogg fully awakens… and devours everything.

Rod of Alertness
Weight2.00 lb.

Description

This rod has a flanged head and the following properties. ***Alertness.*** While holding the rod, you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks and on rolls for initiative. ***Spells.*** While holding the rod, you can use an action to cast one of the following spells from it: detect evil and good, detect magic, detect poison and disease, or see invisibility. ***Protective Aura.*** As an action, you can plant the haft end of the rod in the ground, whereupon the rod's head sheds bright light in a 60-foot radius and dim light for an additional 60 feet. While in that bright light, you and any creature that is friendly to you gain a +1 bonus to AC and saving throws and can sense the location of any invisible hostile creature that is also in the bright light. The rod's head stops glowing and the effect ends after 10 minutes, or when a creature uses an action to pull the rod from the ground. This property can't be used again until the next dawn.
