Ampoule Skipper

Scale 0XS, HP 1, VLN 7, CBB +1, Attacks 1d2 Leech Energy, Move 6m / 1 hex per day No. Appearing 1 / 4d6 (cavern)

A telene commonly raised by Ikoska and others who subsist in hard vacuum environments. A cylindrical organ (the ampoule) is joined to a flat body with ribbon-like limbs the skipper uses to launch into hops across the surface or tumble down inclines. When their leech energy hits, they latch on. While they remain attached, they drain 1e per turn apiece. Any damage causes them to let loose.

Skippers typically ignore characters who are not carrying energy sources and not preventing the skipper from feeding. They leech 1 energy per day when attached to an energy source or exposed to bright star radiation, and will readily latch onto anything that gives them energy if captured and moved. Energy sources can attenot to charge from a skipper, yielding 1e 50% of the time. When energy is extracted in captivity, ampoule skippers roll a 1d4 use die. If they fail on 1d2, the skipper dies.

Abilities

  • Leech Energy: When the entity uses leech energy in combat, mark it. When using leech energy while marked, it does 1d4 damage and becomes unmarked.
  • Surface Hop: Once per hour, in vacuum, the Skipper can uncoil the tension in its ribbons and end up coasting and tumbling about 200 meters towards safety. Skippers can cling to walls and ceilings they hop against.
