Invoke the dread of the deep with this 72mm obelisk, featuring a malevolent fish-man perched atop a weathered stone column. The base is anchored by a hauntingly detailed bearded face, while the pitted texture of the pillar suggests centuries of erosion beneath the waves. Perfect as a centerpiece for eldritch rituals or as a looming threat in your coastal horror campaigns.
A weathered idol to a dark sea god, likely found in a sunken temple or a coastal village where the inhabitants have turned to eldritch worship.
