(Stat Crunch) CoC Day of the Beast

As I've done previously here, I've been trying to enesure that a handful of poor skill checks don't destroy an entire session/campaign.  I'm also looking into those skills which would be essential to the success of the scenario, and to properly guide the players away from kung-fu hobos and crop dusters for replacement characters, if they can't help the game.

Today, I'll be breaking down Day of the Beast, a large, globe trekking expedition to prevent a menace beyond the group's imagination i.e. a regular CoC game.

Spot Hidden is the only skill listed for the climax of the campaign.

1-21  Potential SAN loss
SAN gain for the finale is dependent on what the Investigators could accomplish through numerous plot lines. 
If the group succeeds at everything, the gain could be as high as 18-73!

Now where can I get the cunning linguist  necessary to finish this campaign?
