Mel turns her attention to Patrick for a moment. "A what wave? This time rift thing seems a mighty bit more dangerous that our new 'friend' was letting on!"
Though, quickly remembering the awful bug creatures before them she fires twice at the creature, barely even bothering to look back over her shoulder at the creatures.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |

In addition to what Patrick knows, Dr. Dov is able to determ8ne these Giant Prehistoric Thasteron Khefaks can sense vibrations through the ground, like to break things, will eat them if given a chance, and are not strong willed.
Variant tharteron khefek
N Large vermin
Senses blindsense (vibration) 30 ft., darkvision 60 ft.; Perception +11
Weak save: Will
Break Objects (Ex) When attacking an object, a thasteron khefak treats that object's hardness as if it were 15 lower.
Consume Objects (Ex) A thasteron khefak can eat objects with hardness 15 or lower. A thasteron khefak deals 2 damage to the object it's consuming per minute. A thasteron khefak is sated and stops feeding on a given day after dealing 100 damage this way.
The good doctor then improves Alistair’s defenses.

As the last of the arthropods fall, the time rift displaying a vast desert closes. To its right, another rift opens, containing only a swirling void, releasing new creatures into the chamber. The mist in the middle of the archway clears for a moment, revealing the outline of a dragonkin which is quickly replaced by a lanky, crystalline humanoid reaching through the arch, its not-yet-fully-manifested hand clawing in Felise’s direction. “We need to hurry!” she calls, between incantations. “That’s a time dimensional, and it doesn’t look pleased!”
Borrowed Time: The PCs are spurred on by the newly manifesting threat. Each PC gains a +1 to attack rolls, weapon damage, or saving throws (PC's choice) for the next three waves.

Felise continues to work on the Eternity Arch.
Four creatures of two different types emerge from the rifts.
There are two that look like Ysoki only they are incorporeal and don’t look happy to exist.
Then there are two that look sort of like breaks in reality. At least they are solid. Felise said something about time elementals?
Green comes up and tries to claw Mel! It misses, but Mel feels an assault on her mind just being near it.

Dr. Dov knows quite a bit about both creatures.
The incorporeal ysoki are driftdead, a type of undead spirit. Evidently these ysoki died within the Drift while consumed with a strong negative emotion such as hatred, fear or rage. It is a restless undead spirit and what’s left of a driftdead's fragmented psyche is filled with confusion, rage, and a hatred for the living. So overwhelming is this flux of emotions that a driftdead psychically broadcasts its confusion, affecting all who venture too close. They would have fully corporeal bodies in the drift, but here they are incorporeal.
Although so far they have only attacked with their claws, they are able to make a ranged attack that pulls apart the molecular bonds of matter.
Furthermore, he realizes that they would retain the ysoki ability to operate normally when off-kilter.
Driftdead Ysoki
NE Small undead (extraplanar, incorporeal)
Defensive Abilities spatial incorporeality; Immunities undead immunities
Confusion Aura (Su) Any creature that comes within 30 feet of a driftdead must succeed at a DC 13 Will save or be confused for 2 rounds. Once a creature has attempted this save, whether successful or not, it can't be affected again by the same driftdead's aura for 24 hours.
Drift Rip (Su) Just as the Drift tears away chunks of planar material, a driftdead can pull apart the molecular bonds of matter, ripping open the flesh of nearby creatures. This is a ranged attack against EAC that has a range of 30 feet.
Spatial Incorporeality (Ex) Within the Drift, a driftdead has a physical body, but if removed from that plane, its physical body phases out of normal reality. On the Material Plane or otherwise outside the Drift, a driftdead becomes incorporeal. This doesn't change any of the driftdead's statistics, but the driftdead gains all of the other benefits of the incorporeal special ability (see page 264 of the Starfinder Core Rulebook). If returned to the Drift, a driftdead immediately loses the incorporeal special ability as its physical body returns.
Moxie Ysoki are scrappy and nimble even when the odds are against them. A ysoki can stand from prone as a swift action. Additionally, when off-kilter (see page 276), a ysoki does not take the normal penalties to attacks or gain the flat-footed condition. When attempting an Acrobatics check to tumble through the space of an opponent at least one size category larger than himself, a ysoki receive a +5 racial bonus to the check.
The fractal creatures are infused time eaters, a type of outsider native to the drift. They are well adapted to living in the void. Although they are called time eaters, it would be more accurate to say that they steal momentum from their victims and transfer it to themselves. The more of this they steal, the faster they can fly and the more accurate their attacks are. It can sense living creatures within 60’ of it as well as having blindsight.
Infused Time Eaters
Variant time eater
N Medium outsider (extraplanar)
Senses blindsight (life) 60 ft., darkvision 60 ft.
Defensive Abilities void adaptation
Steal Momentum (Su) When a time eater hits a creature with its tentacle attack, its fly speed increases by 10 feet for 1 minute and its penalties for a full attack decreases by 1 (to a minimum of zero). These adjustments are cumulative. In addition, a creature hit by a time eater's tentacle attack must attempt a DC 15 Will save. The first time a creature fails this save, its speeds decrease by 10 feet (to a minimum of 0). The second time, it gains the staggered condition. The third time and each time thereafter, it gains the paralyzed condition. These effects are cumulative and last for 1 minute or until the time eater is destroyed, whichever comes first. A creature that succeeds at its save is immune to further applications of that time eater's steal momentum ability for 24 hours.
Teddington tears up the green driftdead, his weapon doing full damage to the incorporeal creature.
Having gotten so close, Teddington feels the same intrusion on his mind that others have.

Red Fractal Outsider
Teddington and Mel both manage to block out the psychic noise that their driftdead is generating.
Mel hits with her first strike but narrowly misses with the backswing. The damage isn’t what it should be, but that is to be expected with incorporeal targets.
