This primordial demon lord of the deeps is worshipped by all manner of aquatic humanoids that have embraced the ways of chaos and evil. Great sunken cities on the ocean floors have fantastic temples dedicated to the demon prince. Some land dwellers who make their living from the sea venerate Dagon and ally with his undersea minions in exchange for greater catches in their fishing nets and sunken treasures dredged up from the sea floor. But such arrangements always come with a high price that may cost far more than the alliance is worth. Dagon is ichthyic and cold-blooded; his mind is alien to the creatures of land, and his will and desires are often inscrutable. Sacrifices to Dagon on shore often involve a deep well that extends to flooded sea caves where his horrific minions can gather to feast upon those unfortunates offered up in his name. Dagon’s clerics are called Scaled Ones and must sign a pact to serve the dread lord as described above.
