3/18 - VaXXen (7)

• Punks reach end of bridge––stone steps reaching appx. 30 ft. 
• Spires from Areas 4, 5, 6 energize––pink crystal thorns blast energy bolts to each other and arc to top of steps. 
• On top of steps––large glass cylinder vat with big brain bobbing in light purple fluid. 
• Bolts from spires strike vat’s top nodes, causing brain to writhe in pain. This is Yuki’s AI brain. 
• Another VaXXen Pit Fighter emerges from behind the cylinder––introduces himself as Trag and wishes the party a good death before attacking. 
• Trag (MT-ST) - VaXXen Pit Fighter 
  • Same abilities as previous Pit Fighter. 
  • Every 2nd COMBAT ROUND channels energy from nodes on top of vat. Shoots those bolts from eyes/mouth for FIGHTING ROLL+1d10 VIG HP DMG. 
• On defeat, the vat breaks open, covering Targ in glass shards, purple liquid gushing over him––melts him to his digi-bones. 
• Yuki’s AI brain stays afloat. An image of her rezs in front of the Punks––her brain fades into the image. She smiles/winks and teleports the party back to LV. 10, Area 7.
