Notes	Frightful Presence (Su) Drowned Ones can inspire terror by their very appearance. Affected creatures must succeed on a DC 13 Will save or become shaken, remaining in that condition as long as they remain with 60 feet of the Drowned One. The save DC is Charisma-based. Voices of the Deep (Su) As soon as a deep one spots an enemy, they raise their voices in a cacophonous, croaking language as a free action. All creatures (other than Deep Ones) within a 60-foot spread must succeed on a DC 13 Will save or be affected as though by a Confusion spell for 1d2 rounds. This is a sonic mind-affecting compulsion effect. A creature that successfully saves cannot be affected by the same Drowned One’s voice of the deep for 24 hours. The save DC is Charisma-based. Combat Drowned Ones are aware of the eldritch horror they provoke in humanoid races and will raise their Voices of the Deep as soon as they see a threat. It draws attention to their presence, which provokes its Frightful Presence, as well (though it is a passive ability). Drowned Ones attack first with nets to entangle their opponents, hoping to drag them away to the water. If confronted, they will attack with tridents or short swords.
