殺戮尖塔2 (STS2) 事件

You discover a secluded chamber. Steam rises from bubbling pools of hot liquid that shifts colors with hypnotic rhythm. Barnacled growths hang from the ceiling, dripping viscous fluid that hisses and writhes when it touches the surface. The air feels heavy, laden with salt and something unmistakably organic. As you approach the edge of the largest pool, the liquid ripples. The waters bubble more intensely as if anticipating your entry.

CLANG! CLANG!!! You hear the echoes of metal upon metal on the otherside of a wall... As you press your head against the wall to listen in—the wall opens up, revealing a hulking six-armed figure toiling away. Its “face” is a swirling vortex of glowing sigils that shift about. “One with an Ascending Spirit has found my workshop? Let's get COMBINING!”

Upon trudging through a thick underbrush and making it into a clearing, you're hit with an unplaceable nostalgia. A mix of floral scents, putrid decay, and something else entirely. The scent grows stronger with each step, and you feel as though the world around you is warping and twisting. Overcome with a sense of shifting chaos, you begin to lose your sense of self.

As you approach, it begins to rumble and fizzle and lights up brilliantly! “BZZZT! TIME TO TRAIN!!! YOU HAVE 3 TURNS TO DEFEAT ME! CHOOSE A SETTING OR FACE LETHAL HUMILIATION. Here are the options:” After the terrifying message, the dummy carefully reads out detailed instructions. What do you choose?

As you're fending off a swarm of aggressive insects you suddenly notice a Mighty Rugged Warrior-Man fighting beside you this whole time! The insects, sensing defeat, scatter. You turn to your fellow fighter. “Would you like any tips on exterminating these pests?” How polite. You nod and accept his offer.

You spot an enormous Shambling Beast chase off an injured Green Byrd. In the alcove the byrd fled from, a single unguarded egg lies abandoned. Your stomach gurgles...

Before you is a rather epic sight. You see 3 different colored statues towering over a dais, having a heated debate over the philosophical implications of color. As you listen in, you get a sense that the most important question at hand is which color truly is THE BEST. You chime in with your thoughts.

There is a colossal flower growing atop a mountain of bones. As its color-shifting petals pulsate, you sense there is a Powerful Cluster of Pollen in the center but the undulating petals are razor sharp and unpredictable. You could grab some of the golden nectar, but reaching the prize in the center is so tempting...

Having taken the wrong path for a good while, you find yourself in a thick jungle of ferns, shrubs, and vines. Especially vines. Exhaustion sets in, and a dark thought comes to mind: “You are lost, unprepared, and the inevitability of death is approaching.” What do you do?

A doorway existed where none existed moments before... You enter to find two shimmering doorways and a well-dressed doorman. “Finally, a visitor! Please please! Choose a door, any door!” Are we still in the Spire? How is this place so clean?

Crossing a dreamscape of rocks and still waters, you emerge to face a sinking lighthouse emitting anti-light. You can bottle up the eerily-glowing water that has pooled here or climb up the dilapidated structure to retrieve the lens.

You lumber into a shack with a bright but crooked sign that reads: “ENDLESS FEAST - PAY WHAT YOU HUNGER!” Inside, a willowy multi-armed chef is deftly preparing bites of food and placing them onto a winding chitinous belt. One of the chef's arms point to a sign: 40 Gold each

The sudden sight of a massive field, gouged with large outlines of bodies, stops you in your tracks. One of these outlines matches your own. It's perfect...

There is a single grave with a roiling blue flame... A prideful warrior died in battle but its soul is restless. It wants to keep fighting, you feel it begging to journey with you. But perhaps it's better for it to face the truth?

How long has it been since you ate? ...wait, what's that fantastic smell? Following the scent, you reach a cozy campground with all manner of tasty mushrooms being cooked! You don't consider the safety of eating these mushrooms because you are so hungry. (So hungry that you don't notice the dead adventurer)

There's a chamber filled with dead robots. A lone automaton still has a faintly glowing core but it's engulfed by a grotesque, organic growth and doesn't respond.

In a clearing, you run into a Ragtag Group of Adventurers looking down and gesturing at a gigantic maze. They offer to join forces with you in an Epic Quest to loot the riches of this maze. As an experienced adventurer yourself, it's clear this maze is filled with deadly traps and guardians. It would be easier if you work together, but then you would have to split the loot.

In the distance is an odd sight. Mounds and mounds of deceased insects, surrounding what looks to be a small glowing mote. It seems to be an effective attractant for all manner of bugs but you see it lash out some flames! You move closer to investigate.

You stumble upon a clearing bathed in an unnatural blue glow. Towering mushrooms pulse with bioluminescence, their caps swollen and glistening. As you approach, the fungi begin to emit haunting, melodic tones that reverberate throughout your chest. You notice something gleaming, embedded within the largest mushroom's flesh, pulsing in rhythm with the fungal song.

You enter a grove of crystalline trees, and they begin to quiver excitedly! A chorus of hellos and welcomes bombard you as a group of Morphics burst forth from trees. One of the Morphics is fidgeting in the corner, clearly not as sociable as the others. Approach the group or the loner?

Two Punch Constructs are duking it out and you see some treasure in between them... Should you try to nab it?

What is this? Something feels wrong here... ...ereh gnorw sleef gnihtemoS ?siht si tahW

You find an invitation for a “Sir Galalot” to a tea party and decide to show up in his stead. Upon entering an unassuming rotunda, you find yourself in the midst of commanders, generals, warlords, and mercenaries having... tea? The gigantic knight donning a golden crown speaks. “Thou art late for Tea?!”

You narrowly avoid stepping on a bright, sharp... seed? Its unmistakable color gives away that it's a Sapphire Seed! Weren't these incredible seeds supposed to be extinct!? Legends say that consuming one can greatly amplify your endurance, but what if you plant and nourish it instead?

You happen upon a Massive Spiraling Whirlpool. The water swirls with beautiful precision and its surrounding walls are adorned with spiral patterns. Around and around... around... ....and around.... what a sight...... What do you do?

Above, a cocoon is shaking and wriggling, about to burst forth! ...it stops wriggling. The cocoon ignites! What is going on? In a flash of light and flame, a Spirit Grafter rushes into you, threatening to merge with your being to become complete.

You spot an aged statue half submerged in a pond; its hands gently rest atop a stone sword. Something is also glittering at the bottom of the pond. Votive offerings perhaps? You could really use some money...

A path leads you into a partially submerged vault. There are 2 chests but only 1 brittle key. The First Chest: Shaking it, you get jingly-jangly noises. Bit of gold. The Second Chest: Enormous, ornate, and clearly cursed. Lots of gold!

You defeat a pair of Guardian Kin and make your way into a protected vault. Inside is a tablet with familiar inscriptions. Your intuition tells you that this language can be deciphered rather easily... However, once you begin deciphering you'll be locked in. The tablet gives off a soothing energy and you can smash it to receive its healing energies instead.

You come upon a faintly glowing key and go to pick it up. “Been looking all over for that key! Now if you don't mind...” This person looks like bad news but maybe it's not good to be judgy.

Navigating through an endless sea of corpses, you find a mad scientist scavenging for various scraps. “Yes. Hi, hello! You look like a capable fighter... I need a tester for my next atrocity device! How about it?”

You discover a towering pile of scrapped weapons, discarded trinkets, and other oddities. The massive pile shifts and rumbles, as if growing from within... If you scavenge from the surface, you may find some decent things. But if you really get in there, you may find some exotic treasures.

You join a line of people entering a massive building. As you pass under a golden archway, horns blare, confetti explodes, and streamers glide down from the ceiling! “Entrant X, you are the DECIDER for today's Trial.”

You find a secluded Rest Site and start a fire to get some rest. Or so you thought. Once the fire is started, it begins to swell, reaching not upwards but sideways towards a grove of oil-seeping trees. Should you try resting anyways?

Navigating the murky passages, you stumble upon a withered figure working a small shop. The multitude of shelves are stuffed full of damp scrolls and parchment. Noticing a patron has entered, the scribe-shopkeeper snaps to attention and gestures at some implements arranged on a desk.

You trace a low rumble to its source and find yourself captivated by a tranquil wellspring. The water is an emerald green with clusters of glowing motes. It looks inviting. What can possibly go wrong?

Making your way through a hollow of dead trees you happen upon a single bone-white tree. Clay baubles hang off its branches, which curve inward like protective ribs. Such a creepy tree. It whispers. ...make exchange.....

You open a dusty box to find a set of 3 elaborate wood carvings: A bird, snake, and... a torus? A nearby pedestal has indentations which match the bottom of the carvings. Which carving will you place on the pedestal?

You walk through a spider web and PANIC! But then, a wave of calm washes over you... “Calm down. I need you to quit fussing up my web.” How did you calm down so quickly? An itsy bitsy spider abseils down to meet you. It seems willing to impart some techniques for gold.
