He stays clean shaved beyond a single ponytail that stretches down to the middle of his wide back. Scented oils are constantly rubbed into the man's bulk causing the multicolored robes of translucent silk that he wears to cling. A Enlightened Mortal bound to The Labyrinth Shrine Manse and a person who favors wit and knowledge. Once a wandering healer by the name of Hokos he found his way to the Shrine at the center of the labyrinth and made a deal with something. For the gift of prophecy he was required to sacrifice much in exchange. Among his sacrifices were his freedom for if he ever leaves the shrine he will die painfully. His sight such that he is incapable of seeing the now. And his health turning his once well cared for and muscular body into the bloated mess it is now that requires constant oiling or the skin will crack like shattered porcelain.<br/></div></div><br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button"> Place</div><div class="spoiler_body">  The Labyrinth Shrine.<br/>This Manse is found in a large valley formed between mountainous sand dunes. Both trails between the dunes lead to a labyrinth whose walls are made of compacted sand and frequently shift around. Not only do the shifting passages make it hard to pass through the labyrinth it is far warmer within and many reptilian and insect creatures make the area their home. A final bit of a trial is a spirit that roams the twisting paths, frequently compressing the sand of the area into a rock hard Minotaur like form. Within the center of the Labyrinth is the massive shrine the Blind Oracle lives in. Marble columns surround a bubbling oasis and small garden with several resting areas and a fancy meeting room where seekers receive the Oracle's words. The living areas are off to the side and seekers are not permitted within as any who have to stay a night or longer must provide their own shelter further away from the shrine.<br/></div></div></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>These are grand.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=346006.msg16315008#msg16315008">Quote from: Hexed on 19-10-2022, 13:06:34</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button"> Thing</div><div class="spoiler_body"> The Scorpion's Tail <br/>This lifelike metal scorpion is pressed against one's forearm with the head facing one's shoulder which causes the legs to close around the limb locking it into place. The claws work as controls that manipulate the tail allowing its stinger to be aimed and launched out with a great deal of force and a lengthy spool of wire that trails the tip. The stinger is capable of two settings, a piercing spike that punches into hard objects or splitting into a claw like form that grasps onto objects the spike can't pierce. Another touch of the controls reels in the cord either hauling smaller objects to the user or hauling up to 500 pounds into the air towards where the tip is locked.<br/></div></div></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>This one reminds me of the Gauntlets of Distant Claws (OC p37). Is it tied to particular individual or perhaps criminal group?
