Sahuagin

CanonOfficial lore from the booksMCp. 32, 106

The Sahuagin are monstrous creatures, known from a raid on the town of Mossentry and from a perilous encounter on a voyage to the Islands of Farr.1

The raid on Mossentry

A few years ago about twenty sahuagin came to the town of Mossentry and raided it. Many people were killed, and the men of the town guard were ill-equipped to face the threat.2

Bartouk Hanneker and his friend Garrick the Bold took up arms and faced the sahuagin leader, a beast that towered over the two of them. While Bartouk looked for an angle to strike with his harpoon, Garrick grappled the creature, and his hold let Bartouk pierce its thick skull and kill it. With their leader dead, the remaining sahuagin fled the village. Bartouk lost his best friend in the attack, and it was then that he decided to become an adventurer.2

On the way to the Islands of Farr

Marisela Stormweaver met sahuagin in a perilous encounter on a voyage to the Islands of Farr, a turning point in her life.3
