Normally, a temperamental god summoned without warning would start smiting nearby cities to blow off some divine steam. Rather unkindly, the ritual that summons The Forgotten One forth also binds its physical form into a more manageable size: that of a tiny, cute, very un-threatening cuttlefish.”<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Price: Pay What You Want (Suggested: $1.00)</li> </ul>Normally, Thomas and Rachel Kolar are giving us a Ravenloft setting based off a Disney property on their podcast Wonderful World of Darklords.
