WIPWednesday - the Tumblewyrd
Added 2025-06-18 15:34:44 +0000 UTCHey Critical Crew!
We've touched down in Columbus at Origins Game Fair and we're getting the Critical Crafting booth setup as we speak, but we can't let today pass without your midweek check-in of what's to come for July. Check out this first-look of the Tumblewyrd for WIPWednesday!
"...Rolling across desert lands and desolate plains are the infamous tumblewyrds, carnivorous plant creatures that gain their energy from absorbing both the physical bodies and souls of their prey. Tumblewyrd's resemble massive tumbleweeds rolling through the desert, but these mobile balls of plant matter are deadly hunters, usually filled with the tangled corpses of their prey. Creatures trapped within a tumblewyrd roll along inside of it, being slowly eaten by the plant while simultaneously fusing with it in an excruciating process of digestion.
As it absorbs its prey, the tumblewyrd releases the ghastly screams and cries of its past and current victims, fused in a horrifying cacophony that often alerts potential prey before it arrives. Still... with its ability to pick up momentum so long as it continues moving, even the most agile of prey is likely to be run down by a tumblewyrd, their screams added to its own...."
This one is sure to drive some terror into your players! Stay tuned for more soon (and if you're going to be at Origins this year drop us a message on here or social media so that we can be on the lookout for you! We have some goodies for our loyal patrons!)
