still partially readable. It details his travels and
exploits, and ends with an entry about a planned
dive down to the wreckage for supplies.

D2. The Tainted Rose

Once the party dives down to wreckage of The
Tainted Rose, read aloud the following text:

Looming out of the darkness before you is

a terrifying sight. The bodies of all the dead
sailors now float here, tethered by black
tendrils to an glowing orb that radiates a dark
purple, swirling cloud.
You see the orb’s tendrils pulse with energy,
pumping it into the floating corpses, which
respond in kind by emanating a growing
miasma around them. One of the bodies has a
clear sign of transformation, as its hands have
become dark claws, and its skin is covered in
a viscous black sludge. You see before you the
cause of the abomination that has wreaked
havoc on your voyage!

Touching the Abyssal Orb is a dangerous matter,

as it exudes a terrible aura. Upon touching the
orb, the character must make a DC 16 Con saving
throw, taking 5d8 necrotic damage on a failure, or
half as much on a success.
If the orb is damaged in any way, or if The
Undersea Abomination spots the characters,
combat will begin. All of the dead sailors’ bodies
will be activated to defend the orb, rising as
waterlogged undead. Hopefully the party was able
to save a few sailors and thus go against fewer
enemies!
