Part 2

Your feet touch solid ground as you land on the Core Planet...

The planet seems just as dangerous as foretold, yet strangely and ominously beautiful in its new, alien design. No matter how you look at it, the world here is an odd harmony of beautiful and terrifying. Deep pools of glistening ichor beckon observers in while shards of bleached-bone metal ward everything away with jagged and decorative spikes. Plants have grown in similar fashion, clutching strange glistening nutrient packets while using these boney spikes to defend themselves. Some seem to have tendrils that freely move as if alive, and some glow with beautiful white light. The air here is somehow light, yet the sky looks heavy as it seems to absorb the sunlight no matter the time, creating a deep pink-purple night.

Creatures run either quickly away or boldly towards you as your party approaches. Even these beasts feel alien; bodies warped and twisted in silhouette by ichor, yet some creatures show parts that seem to cling to their past selves. Furs, scales, or feathers showing beneath the strange pooling liquid that coats them, covered haphazardly by coral-like growths of metal. It doesn’t look pleasant, and some of this change appears to harm their hosts. The behaviors of the beasts range just as largely as their bodies, an array of beasts that can be filled with bountiful energy in their frenzy, while you can equally find others that are oddly absent and sluggish with little care or reaction to their surroundings.

It dawns on you that these creatures may be a mirror into what could happen to yourself if you are not careful.

Prompt 2 -

Strange and warped life reaches up from the ichor below, some strangely inanimate life even grasps at those landing. Some areas of clear land still remain, the ichor beneath still roiling. The way the ichor has warped this hidden planet is clear, yet plenty here may have been unchanged to ichor and adapt harmoniously bizarre amongst it.

Ichor beasts may roam the area, lurking within it. A massive stump of a crystalline tree rises from below, surrounded by crystal and ichor fauna. You may even find fallen chunks of the familiar planet having landed here amongst the new and confusing terrain.

This prompt focuses on your character making a landing and exploring the land and its bizarre new features either on a small scale or large. For this, you can draw your character exploring or experiencing something about the ichor-ridden planet. They can be in the middle of research, studying a plant or creature, taking notes, etc. Your character seems to have found something interesting now that they’ve wandered around! Did they focus on collecting anything, or just studying from afar? Have they found any difficulty obtaining, holding onto, or generally finding the subject of research? What is it and why does this thing spark curiosity for your character?

Draw or write about an Official Skire Character (Yours, someone else's, or an NPC) exploring the Core Planet.

What are you looking for on the Core Planet? Are you researching strange life forms, or are you seeking out something lost?
Do you hop from island to island, or stay close to your camp? Who comes with you?
What do you find? Do you encounter new monsters, creatures, or plant-life? Do you find left-behind treasure? Do you find remnants of the titan, or parts of Skire now missing?
How do you store or log your findings? What new information do you observe?
