OD&D Supplement 2 has a We know from other sources that TSR's editorial staff were unhappy with the material that Dave Arneson submitted for Supplement II. We also know that TSR at the time (before JG proved them wrong), TSR did not believe money could be made from publishing adventures. Could it be that Dave Arneson submitted not only the Temple of the Frog, but also an underwater adventure for Supplement II? In supplement II we find two pages on Underwater adventures and a surprisingly large number of the monsters included are appropriate for underwater adventuring.
Add to this the lengthy background for the Sahuagin. The reference to Evil High Priests who can brieathe under water also seems like they are taken out of their original context. We know that Dave Arneson loved naval gaming, so could some of these pages be from something bigger that Dave was working on?
The following monsters from Supplement II would be appropriate in an Underwater adventure:
Mermen Giant Crabs Giant Octopi Giant Squid Giant Crocodile Giant Leech Dinosaur: Elasmosaurus Dinosaur: Mosasaurus Dinosaur: Plesiosaurus Giant Shark Whale Giant Eel Lamprey Sea Horse Portugese Man of War (Manatae) Dolphins Aquatic Elves Pungi Ray Manta Ray Water Spiders (Giant sea Spider) Weed Eels Sahuagin Floating Eyes (Fish) Ixitxachith Locathah Morkoth (or Morlock) Masher Poisonous Coral Strangle Weed Nymph (as Dryad) Leech Evil High Priest (Underwater!) Sea Hag (As Dryad) Kopoacinth (Underwater Gargoyle) Koalinth (Underwater Hobgoblin) Lacecdon (Ghoul, aquatic)
