Shadow Cyst Crystal

These unearthly crystals grow from a Shadow Seed, a hardened physical form created when several Nictus fuse together and solidify themselves. Shadow Cysts project a field that allow Nictus to survive for extended periods without a host even on a planet's surface.

If allowed to grow in the right conditions, a Shadow Cyst can flood a world with Nictus.
