Awakened Agent (Gillman Sorcerer 12)

Raiment made from monstrous sea creatures conceals the sallow complexion and strange sores of this sickly gillman. Abnormal muscles and joints flex just beneath his flesh.

ABOUT

The will of the aboleths is ancient, unyielding, and potent enough to reach out to them even across 5,000 years, after all—what mere humanoid could deny such a glorious and timeless master? Awakened agents gather data about the surface world and use their influence over others to complete whatever tasks are doled out by their aboleth masters. Many lead cults, ostensibly leading their people in the worship of “hidden gods” or “newly risen ocean spirits”—their congregations never realize they bow to the very foes who laid their ancient empire low. Some awakened agents teeter on the brink of madness, never fully understanding the purpose behind their own actions.

Others carry out their assignments in the belief that everything they do is absolutely necessary for the well-being of their race—sacrificing the world to guarantee their people a role as favored pets. Aboleths frequently trust these skilled servants with strange and advanced magic, such as the mind-warping masters’ call amulets.
