It could result in a death sentence.  \n• Argos doesn’t believe Lucien is responsible for the chuul infestation. He was hunting for clues to exonerate the keeper near a sunken ship at the base of the lighthouse. The chuuls who pursued him came out of the ship.  \nSidebar: Lucien’s Apprentice  \n• If Lucien Skyhorn didn’t survive the events of The Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse, his nephew, Rigo Vallard, became the keeper and the tritons’ criminal suspect. Rigo is a shy, twenty-year-old neutral good human guard.  \nUse any of the following hooks to introduce the characters to the adventure:  \nAPPEAL TO REWARD  \nArgos doesn’t have anything valuable to offer the characters, but his people honor heroics in the name of justice. Argos is certain the triton synod will reward the PCs if they sort out whether Lucien is guilty of corrupting the bowland summing the chuuls.  \nAPPEAL TO HEROISM  \nArgos believes Lucien has been wrongly accused, but he’s not in1luential enough to change Lucien’s fate. He implores the PCs to uncover the truth about what’s causing the infestation and save Lucien, if he's innocent.  \nAPPEAL TO DISCOVERY  \nThe corrupted Bowl of Commanding Water Elementals could be the start of serious trouble. What sinister event caused it to happen?  \nTRANSITION  \nArgos tells the group how to 1ind the sunken ship on the ocean 1loor of Skyhorn Lighthouse. It's a few miles out to sea. If the characters need transport, go to The Red Rook. Otherwise, go to Out To Sea.  \nTHE CORRUPTION OF SKYHORN LIGHTHOUSE 5  \nTHE RED ROOK  \nThe Red Rook tavern is where captains looking for hire congregate. Each captain claims to bethe best individual for the job. They argue and barter to win the PCs' business.  \nTHE RED ROOK TAVERN  \n• The tavern bristles with sailors of all stripes singing shanties, dancing, and guzzling ale.  \n• Several captains sit at round tables slinging black tar dice and Three-Dragon Ante cards. A handful of their crew surround them, cheering and bellowing at each play.  \nDRAMATIC QUESTION  \nWill the group 1ind passage on a ship?  \nCAPTAIN THELONIUS BRAK  \n• Thelonius offers to transport the PCs to the lighthouse in his underwater submersibleship (treat as underwater, 1ive-passenger keelboat), Sea Stinger, for 100 gp each.  \n• He has a crew of 3 goblins. The cramped ship has no 1irepower aboard (except Thelonius) .  \nCAPTAIN RIMSHAM ZURR  \n• Rimsham will transport the PCs to the lighthouse for 50 gp each on his giant, rotting warship, Stalagmite.  \n• Rimsham has 40 chittering ettercaps and 40 loutish bugbears in his monstrous crew. They hate each other, but fear Rimsham more.  \nRimsham Zurr, NE darkmantle  \n“I don’t take foolish risks. Seafaring is a game of strategy I’ll never lose.”  \n• Appearance. Wears a Headband of Intellect that awoke its higher consciousness.  \n• Does. Rides on the head of its “steed,” a dim, half-orc gladiator called Sixteen. Sixteen usually speaks on Rimsham’s behalf.  \n• Secret. Is terri1ied of losing its Headband of Intellect and believes Thelonius plans to steal it.  \nCAPTAIN ANNABEL LEE  \n• Annabel Lee can transport the PCs to the lighthouse for 70 gp each aboard her longship, Queen of the Black Coast.  \n• Her crew is 40 fanatically loyal berserkers.  \nThelonius Brak, LN goblin mage  \n“We’re stealthy, not sturdy. If you can patch the occasional leak, we’ll get you there on the sly.”  \n• Appearance. Oversized skull.  \nFur-lined tunic. Belt full of  \ntools and bottles.  \n• Does.
