Journal Entry[]

"We don't even know if the Chronovore's a single individual from a thousand different points in time, or an entire species swimming the timestream. Hell, before this I don't even know there was a 'timestream.' What else is Old Arkan keeping to himself?"
It wasn't until Arkan Drew revealed the truth that Dr. Priyani even knew what to call the Chronovore. But when the kindly and enigmatic aethersmith acknowledged he had witnessed the impossible Behemoth during the temporal experiment which triggered the Upheaval more than a thousand years ago—and it rendered him effectively immortal—the doctor realized this was the temporal power she has somehow sensed just beyond the edges of reality, trying to break into the present. And it was succeeding.
Possessing an elegant, stunning, and beautiful shape somewhere between a cloud manta and a jellikoi, this radiant feeder manipulates both time and space and can form gaps in reality that allow it to easily traverse the dimensions and timelines.
This radiant Behemoth used to be connected to the Paradoxicon on Paradox Breaks, trapped in an endless, ancient time loop. More recently, however, the Orrery has found a way to trap the Chronovore at their research facility - in hopes of extracting its power. But the Chronovore 's power only grew stronger, resulting in an uncontrollable surge of radiant aether.
Kat's Hunting Tips:
-Few things are truly out of reach for the Chronovore, whether it's lashing out with a massive tail-sweep, blasting a Slayer with intense tempo-radiant energy beams, or swooping down with lightning speed to strike a mortal blow. Use ranged attack and agility to not be there when these attacks land.
-The Chronovore has no skeleton and may assume a variety of shapes during combat that offer different tactical advantage: a manta-like form that stays airborne and attacks Slayers directly, a tall, narrow form that floats high and lashes out with rings of devastating projectile, and a shape like a coiled cobra ready to strike.
