Deep Ocean Necromancy
Deep Ocean Necromancy is an ancient form of supernatural practice that harnesses the immense pressure and darkness of oceanic trenches to commune with and control marine spirits. Practitioners, known as Abyssal Warlocks, utilize specialized techniques to manipulate the souls of deceased deep-sea creatures and harness the power of Hadal Energies.
