Upon reaching this sector of the Beyond, Liam Quintero, an archaeologist fleeing corporate forces from his previous galaxy for absconding with a starship called The Prophet’s Fate, found himself in dire straits. The Prophet’s Fate, notable for its gleaming silver hull embellished with celestial murals, concealed an enigmatic artifact unknown to Liam. In pursuit of insights about this relic, he navigated the cosmos, seeking those who could assist him. Low on funds and in need of refueling, Liam stumbled upon a Galactic Facility under corporate management, where he interrupted a tense negotiation involving an Elder from a Religious Group. Aligning with the religious faction, he offered his services in exchange for aid in deciphering the artifact's mysteries. However, Liam’s luck did not hold as he ventured deeper into the facility. The site, a vast factory nestled within an asteroid, was adjacent to peculiar flora that ensnared its organically constructed dome. It quickly became apparent that the facility was dedicated to bio-research. Venturing beyond the docking station's adjacent restaurant, Liam entered the Command Center only to encounter a local beast resembling a territorial gorilla but far stranger. The creature boasted a vivid, stone-like skin, six tentacled limbs, a snout, and four eyes oriented laterally. Combat Stats: Difficulty 12 | 24 Health | Actions: +2, Damage: +3, Defense: +3 Despite his efforts and pistol at the ready, Liam’s confrontation with the beast proved fatal, leaving the mystery of the artifact unresolved.
