Description
Aboleth Lurk in the Ruins of Lost Ankeshel
Somewhere in the abyssal canyon off the coast of Beacon Rock, near the lost island nation of Ankeshel, a fell consciousness stirs—the Argent King, a powerful aboleth—and its followers are kidnapping coastal residents. Rumors persist of uncanny beings rising from the surf in the dead of night and stealing away with locals. On clear nights when the surf calms, strange lights can be seen in the depths. All along the coast, a nightmare builds of something sinister preying on the seaboard settlements.
Edge of the Abyss takes place in an underwater temple-laboratory of ancient, alien architecture called the Temple of Three Eyes. The party must find this structure, unravel a puzzle to get in, and contend with the horrid residents.
To better understand the PCs who have trespassed upon its domain, the horrible unseen patron of the facility—the Argent King—sends a demonic hybrid to test the mettle of these new foes.
