Team Fusion (Shade-9)

Shade-9 reached out his hand to the Necrotic Curtain. His tactile sensors registered a discomfort that was within acceptable parameters, so he continued through. As his head and chest passed through, the discomfort increased to pain, but he knew that it was a fraction of what he would have experienced if he were made of flesh and blood. Perhaps there was something living in him after all, but it was deep within and shielded by magic, wood, and metal.

And though it was painful, he was quickly through to the other side. He stepped into a shadow next to the archway and found himself in a dimly-lit oblong hexagonal chamber, its floor marred by a great gorge. The western part has a stone slab shaped like a stage, which was unoccupied, but four cylindrical platforms stood in each corner, and upon them were four men.

Each man wore a stone mask - or perhaps the stone was part of their face. The circular of the platform at their feet glowed with an arcane symbol, each a different color: Red, White, Green, and Blue. Each of them chanted, though their stone mouths did not move, as they channeled magical energy into the gorge.

Shade-9 was very close to the Blue, but the man did not seem to notice him. It was unclear if it was because he was too busy with his work, or if he could see nothing through his stone mask, for it had no holes for eyes, nor any obvious way to breathe.

OOC:

My wife rolled for the CON Save advantage and got a nat 20! Shade-9 took one-eighth of what the veil can do, which worked out to 4 Necrotic.
