Dagon

From Witcher Wiki

Dagon - This underwater god, worshiped by vodyanoi and a sect of humans, waits at the lake bottom for the right configuration of stars. Since it is not certain when this will come (or if it will come at all), it whiles away the time terrorizing all who live both under the water’s surface and on land. So it does what ancient, underwater beasts do best, and what we all love them for.

[edit] Journal Entry

"That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die. Powers older than humanity slumber in the depths, where no sunrays disturb them. Gods and demons sleep in underwater cities awaiting their time, and it is said that when the hour comes, they will awaken and bring annihilation to the world. One of those creatures, Dagon, rests at the bottom of the lake and is worshipped by vodyanoi and lunatics. Dagon is an embodiment of strength and fury, and when he comes ashore, he becomes destruction incarnate. Forbidden books like the Hymns of Madness and Despair describe the ways to summon him, for he can only be called to a place dedicated to him."
