The Lord of the Deep's "Calling"
It's mentioned in WB7 Underseas that the LotD occasionally puts out a psionic "call" that can cover something like 1,000 miles of coastline. But it does not state how far inland the effect of the "Calling" propagates. Anyone have any ideas? I was leaning towards 15-30 miles inland from the ocean coasts (Or connected bodies like the Great Lakes) What do people think? Obviously it cannot be hundreds of miles of Chi-Town would be singing "FIsh Heads'.

Re: The Lord of the Deep's "Calling"
skimming through WB7, i'm not seeing any reference to an actual range in the entries for the LOTD, the cult of the deep, or the sea inquisitor.
from the phrasing used to refer to the calling, it actually looks like it has global range from where ever the LOTD is, it's just only psychic sensitives and people on the astral plane tend to notice it.
i think you're confusing it with the range of the reachers (~2000 miles from the main body of the LOTD), but i might be wrong.

I would say that the call can reach under any of Earth's major oceans, as they are linked together and its probably some mystical aspect of the sea water that allows it.

Re: The Lord of the Deep's "Calling"
The definition of the call's area is on Page 48 Of WB7 Underseas, last chapter before the Sea Inquisitor. 1,000 Mile strip or diameter (Diameter likely being at sea), once or twice a year. It's semi-subconsciously activated basically. But for a strip (Of coast presumably) it says nothing about how far inland.
