Description
The Cult of Dugaat believes that one day in the very near future, the Old Gods will return and flood all the land and make it sea. They are both ambivalent about this--their Gods are truly evil--and anxious for the day to come--because it will prove them correct.
In order to live through this, they swallow a Dugaat, which is a small, slimy amphibian or piscine larval thing that gradually makes them more and more fish-like and able to live in the water. However, it gives their voice a strange sound as if they were talking underwater. Other cult members understand this quasi-language but non-cultists can barely make out what they are saying.
Once you swallow a Dugaat, there is no getting out of the cult. Members gradually become more and more piscine looking and have trouble living on land.
