Add an air of cosmic dread to your tabletop with this Void Idol, a towering 40mm monolith of stone and pulsating organic matter. Featuring twisted asymmetrical tubes and mysterious vents, it serves as the perfect centerpiece for eldritch rituals or as a dangerous objective in sci-fi and fantasy campaigns.
A strange, pulsating idol of alien origin stands amidst ancient ruins, its vents possibly emitting toxic vapors or eldritch energy.
Could function as a stationary boss that attacks from a distance, a magical beacon that buffs nearby enemies, or an environmental hazard that characters must disable while being swarmed by lesser minions.
