Palivhar Crystallized Creature 11

Palivhar’s goal is to complete the singlemind ritual and transfer the Krethiskar Swarm’s colony mind to the Szandite Collective, take over the Collective, and become an interplanetary power as yet unseen in Near Space.

In combat, much like when Palivhar sacrificed themself to save their fellow Starfinders, Palivhar fights to the death. They use whatever attacks seem likely to cause the most harm, targeting large numbers of foes with area effects to soften them up before eliminating weakened individuals with more devastating single-target attacks.

Szandite Resonance [two-actions] Palivhar resonates with the crystal obelisks in the room (area Q17), causing them to emit a blast of kinetic magical energy. All non-kucharn creatures within 15 feet of a crystal obelisk take 12d6 force damage (DC 30 basic Reflex save). Palivhar can’t use Szandite Resonance again for 1d4 rounds.
Szandite Pulse When Palivhar deals damage to a non-mindless foe with their szandite spear Strike, they send a pulse of random facts and memories to the mind of the creature. The target must succeed at a DC 30 Will save or be confused for 1 round.
