I always assumed Kuo-Toa "creating gods" was the fishmen being delusional zealots. When we reached the cave and the Kuo-Toa were actually apotheosising an eldritch horror, it was a rude awakening.

The Leviathan Company Session 11

Let me preface this by explaining that I've been mostly refreshing my memory by reading up on a set of notes on what happened each session, and these notes are inconsistent about details. The Payday 2 session had a play-by-play of most of the heist, meanwhile session 10 was a single sentence. Therefore, I may miss out important details, and I am sorry about that. One of these important details is that Anakiir hired the bard Anakiir as a one-night stand, and he just decided to tag along with us.

Since we never got to finish off the vampire, we accepted a job from King Johan II to investigate a city called Xocnar.

So, they go to the city to find it covered in fog. They get to the inn and meet a disturbing innkeeper named Howard. The moment we first laid eyes on him, we had a feeling that he was involved with whatever was wrong here. No specific reason beyond his uneasy demeanor. He says to us, "you know, you shouldn’t stay out late after dark, people tend to go missing near the docks. Maybe you should rent a room, and stay here, where it’s safe, at the inn" in a voice that struggles to sound human. 

Then, at night, spooky shit started happening. We freaked out, and asked Howard what the deal was. He had no clue what was happening, but his duty was with his customers (us) so he didn't care. The next morning, the Innkeeper explains that the people he had last year disappeared, typically near the docks at night.

So, we investigated and found footprints heading back to sea. The plan was to wait until night and figure things out. So, night came, and the party sees shadowy figures with bulging eyes, heading to a cave. What were they doing? Was there a shadow over innsmouth Xocnar? We followed them into the cave, and the interior with dotted with what appeared to be watching eyes, a central lake, and a high ceiling.

The figures start chanting over the corpses of some missing townsfolk, so Anakiir tries fireballing them. He failed, and dread consumed him as the eyes on the wall turned their gaze to him. As if on cue, the lake glows as something unknowable rises from its waters. So, Anakiir shakes off as much dread as he could and illuminates the cave, blinding the bulging eyes of the Kuo-Toa around us. Then, Ivan throws a molotov to destroy one of their altars.

Andthus, combat started. Most of the party fought 3 Kuo Toa while Ivan fought against one who caught him in a mancatcher. Anakiir used a screaming sword, Zeta hit a chanting Kuo-Toa with a crossbow bolt, but it pushed it out with dark magic, and it makes tentacles emerge from its back. While the fight rages on, Marvin's bag starts glowing. Zeta pierced a javelin through a Kuo-Toa's body, but it just becomes tentacles. Then, Ivan blinds the remaining fish-jackasses.

Eventually, an unidentifiable being emerges from the waters. This newborn God tries to pull Marvin from his bag, and the being that was once a fish eats it. Marvin begins glowing, and the Kuo Toa chant. They wanted to usher in a new God, and one has been born then--not by their hands, but through the whim of a joke. As Marvin ascends, the cave collapses, so the party leaves. As they do so, Anakiir takes one last look at the god of his own making, and he gives the proudest smile he has ever made.

The Micromania Innsmouth Gillman from Black Heart Models... Or as we call him, Larry Gillman. Still a work in progress, but the eyes are done now. A bit more work to do on face skin and hair, and then the hat. #CathyPaints #MoreThanDice #BlackHeartModels #microMania #Bust #buststuff #oilpaints #cthulhu #lovecraft #shadowoverinnsmouth #innsmouthlook #miniaturepainting #paintingminiatures #stynylrezprimer #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ3bFpkHWhM/?igshid=1ph2uj6zkxme5

Well it’s the night before Inktober and I’m getting my body and mind ready to complete half of the prompts. I love trying every year but it is always kind of a bummer that I’ve never really finished a full month of it, but hey it’s always worth a try! That said I finally finished inking this Innsmouth piece! Now to color it...tomorrow I’m tried....after Inktober #art #ink #illustration #artoftheday #inktober #horrorart #hplovecraft #creature #artwork #process #inking #pen #artist #tentacles #horror #elderthing #rain #inktober2018 #innsmouth #innsmouthlook (at Chemical Dog Productions) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoXxgb5BjfU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tlrggw4xxcvv

#37: Gills⁠ ⁠ This is my first test with Monster Clay Hard, and wow, is it softer than the Chavant NSP! I feel like I need to be more on my guard, because when it's warm from working it'll distort with a touch. Gotta remember to use my tile-handle!⁠ ⁠ I sketched a few curved slashes, and they made me think of the gill slits on some monstrous beast, so I had fun working with these really thin layers and adding texture.⁠ ⁠ I've gotta say, the Monster Clay is much more pliable and plastic than the Chavant. I was amazed how easy it was to smooth the surfaces under/behind the delicate gills - I didn't need to use force, so there was no risk of pushing the overall structure out of shape. It feels like working with a really sharp knife after using a blunt one. ⁠ ⁠ The two clays feel very different, and have their own merits - It's going to be really interesting getting used to this new one and figuring out what they work best for, and how I can use them. More experiments, woo! :D⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #100dayproject #practicemakesperfect #chavantclay #sculpting⁠ #chavant #monsterclay #sculpture #clay #texture #learning #craft #instasculpture #tiles #handmade #experiment #gills #creature #monstersculpt #monster #fx #innsmouthlook https://www.instagram.com/p/CKWkKQyhTPe/?igshid=1jhybgwur0ubp
