A horn of the tritons can perform any one of the following functions when blown.

  • – Calm rough waters in a 1-mile radius. This effect dispels a summoned water elemental if it fails a DC 16 Will save.
  • – Attract 5d4 Large sharks (01-30 on d%), 5d6 Medium sharks (31-80), or 2d10 Hippocampi (81-100) if the character is in a body of water in which such creatures dwell. The creatures are friendly and obey, to the best of their ability, the one who sounded the horn.
  • – Causes aquatic creatures with Intelligence scores of 1 or 2 within 500 feet to become panicked as if they had been targeted by a fear spell (Will DC 16 partial). Those who successfully save are shaken for 3d6 rounds.

Any sounding of a horn of the tritons can be heard by all tritons within a 3-mile radius.
