Sir I believe that's an obelisk. I don't know why you'd ask here on the forum when it's in the file name. Geez.

I think he was poking fun at Aledog's post title in the form of a question as you can see the creatures name in the file name.

It is indeed an obelisk - an aetherial obelisk to be precise. It is an abomination formed out of earth and the flesh of unlucky creatures absorbed into it. At it's core is a giant crystal imbued with vast aetherial energy. The purpose of the obelisk is to transform portions of the world to be more suitable for aetherial habitation.

normally I'd smite any abomination but if it makes the world look cooler then I may just let it live. Then again this aetherial energy...I wish to harness its power!

Ah sounds like my favorite Dungeons and Dragons monster! The Living Wall.

Didn't see this thread because of the hud thread. I love the concept, and generally how the atmosfer will be dark and gruesome..... love it.
