The Black Tide

Motivation: The Black Tide is a dark, secretive cult that worships a powerful kraken known as Othryx, the Devourer of Depths. They believe that the seas surrounding Sililioquil are sacred and that Othryx is the true ruler of the archipelago. The Black Tide seeks to summon their god to the surface, believing that by doing so, they will be granted dominion over the seas and all the islands. Their ultimate goal is to drown the world in darkness and reshape it according to Othryx's will.

Activities: The Black Tide operates in the shadows, spreading their influence through whispers and fear. They perform dark rituals, often involving the sacrifice of sailors and sea creatures, in an attempt to summon Othryx. They sabotage ships, disrupt trade, and cause mysterious disappearances, all in the name of their kraken god. The cult views the taverns as blasphemous distractions that lure people away from the true power of the sea.

Leader: The leader of the Black Tide is a charismatic and enigmatic figure known only as The Drowned Prophet, a once-great sailor who was said to have been resurrected by Othryx after drowning in a storm.

Some say the second in command is a transvestite Clown Pirate called Gerry (Unsubstantiated)
