Eel Team Six, humanoid eels in full SWAT gear with assault rifles, are finishing their briefing to take down the cartel leader Mermethod Man. They explode a hole in the coral reef floor and repel down a greasy, lubed-up slide that leads to the mermeth lab. They’re coming in hot!
Mossy Mermeth Lab: The moss that grows on the walls here is being processed into the drug mossy mermeth. First hit gives the user a sense of euphoria and a haste-like ability. Second hit and save vs. overdose. Highly addictive. Tweaked out, sharp-toothed mermaids work in waist-deep water to make this dry narcotic powder. Workers toil along an assembly line conveyor belt: pulling moss off the walls, drying, smashing, powderizing, packaged into air-tight bags, then sent down another greasy underwater funnel to a distribution center. They will use bags of mermeth as ranged weapons.
Mermethod Man sits upon a golden throne on a dias/DJ booth that overlooks the work area. They have tentacle hair that sprays poison, an oozi in each hand that shoots slime like a grease spell, and their turntables have a sonic attack that can deafen the area and nullify magic.

This episode is sponsored by Exalted Funeral, and we talk about Abyss of Hallucinations Box Set with Map and Poster, a MÖRK BORG setting inspired by Aleister Crowley‘s Book of Lies, by Max Moon.
This opulently constructed zine is decorated with two-color screen-printed pearlescent white & gold ink, on a pink cardstock cover. Volume 1 & Volume 2 contain 44 pages each for a total of 88 pages of setting material printed on 70# smooth paper and saddle-stitched with gold staples. Each copy is stamped to indicate the volume number.
Book of Lies and Book of the Law are reprints of Aleister Crowley’s original writings with new layout and design by Max Moon. They are screen-printed with the same inks and saddle stitched with the same gold staples to match seamlessly with the Abyss of Hallucinations set.
The Abyssal Box is a two-color screen-printed 6×9 white box with a raised swirl texture featuring gorgeous artwork from renowned occult artist Luciana Lupe Vasconcelos.
