Numenera Jade Colossus 2025-09-07
- Some of the stalagmites are reflecting images upside down
- insect like automaton are slowing chipping away at one of the stalagmites
- I attach one of the insects to the end of my staff with a length of string and start swaying it back and forth looking for time dilation
- An Aeon priest comes running up behind us demanding his bugs back. He seems to have gone crazy
- He leads us to the time anomaly. k'Mort throws one of the bugs into it but it seems to die causing the crazed priest to attack
- We look at the motley crew around the crystal frozen in time. One appears to be a treasure chest with legs. A deep sea creature with blue spikes. A Yolvak with blue mushrooms. A pale ghostly creature with long arms.
- We have Chunk go tie a rope around the treasure chest creature and we try to pull it out but just before we get it out the rope snaps
- Carl and I combine two cyphers to be able to loot the chest creature while it's still under the effects of the time dilation
- k'Mort changes gravity to try and pull the other creatures out of the time dilation
- The crystal was not attached to anything so it moves as well and now we are all in its influence
- Yuzu uses her quick reflexes to fall further away from the crystal and remains out of its influence.
