Regular mutants still retain the vast majority of their "unspoiled" DNA and are recognizable as their origin species, while true mutants are wholly transformed on a fundamental level. While the Processor wants to mutate the world, it appears as though True Mutants are the end goal. It cannot use shadow magic or directed psionic abilities through the Cyst, it is just the equivalent of a psionic antenna. The Processor considers them part of the Mass but they are physically disconnected and the Processor cannot access the mind of the Cyst, only relay it's psionic field through it. These cysts are both part of the Processor and their own, separate flesh. This piece is then grown into a cyst of the Mass which functions as a psionic amplifier and extends the psionic field into the nearby area. It sends off a piece of itself to be carried to a new area and installed in a secured, hidden location, near civilisation. This psionic field, while impressive, is limited in range and for this reason the Processor needs to create amplifiers for its psionic abilities. It extends an attraction field that slowly compels people to come to it for "processing". The way that the Processor extends its influence is through powerful psionics. I can scarcely speak of it, lest my mind give way to madness. The pile of flesh suddenly spoke, its thousand voices echoing through the tenebrous cave. Their crying voices, slowly subsumed into a murmur. Alien voices tearing the air apart in a cacaphony of terror. Eyeless heads, faces with gaping mouths screaming in torment. Limbs with nailless hands protruding from it's repulsive, undulating surface, grasping impotently at the air. Through the stinking mist I saw a pool, filled to the brim with shapeless flesh. However, it is all but rumor and hearsay. These pits are filled with bodies in differing stages of amalgamation and the prisoners are supposedly consumed by the flesh, becoming one, huge monstrosity as their individuality is slowly subsumed and replaced by the will of the Mass. There is a rumor that there exists a journal, recovered from near what is said to be the Mass' heart, that speaks of something called "Flesh Pits", in which prisoners are thrown. Rumor has it that those who accept are mutated beyond recognition, turned into horribly disfigured monstrosities and melded to fulfill some purpose in the Mass. People who are captured are given the choice to join the Mass or be killed, as obstacles between the Processor and the physical ascension of the world's flesh. It appears to consider the Mass a single body and one mind. As if the entirety of the Mass was little more than one body with many limbs, or perhaps cells. While the Processor is the clear leader and voice of the Mass, it speaks of "The Mass" as an entity on its own. The complete deletion of variance within the physical flesh. It believes that the only cure for the world's plague is physical ascension through mutation. The entity refers to the world's destruction and the "infestation" of unaltered flesh as a "plague" on the world. Either way, they are fiercly loyal to the abominable horror, believing its every word. It is unknown whether the entity found the mutants and "adopted" them or if it simply created them. The entity calls itself "The Processor" and once formed, it gathered a following of mutants who became its agents in the world. The entity is said to be so drenched with deep shade corruption that being in its mere presence can spark mutations in heathly tissue. Explosive eruptions of create steep-sided cinder cone volcanoes.It is not known who or what the entity was before its horrific mutation into what it is now, but it emerged in the wastelands, near the coast far to the west in an area now known as the Outlands. Moderately viscous and gas-rich lavas can erupt as lava flows or pyroclastic materials, leading to the steepening slope of composite volcanoes. Broad sheets of fluid lava travel long distances and give shield volcanoes their distinctive shape. A very steep-sided volcano built primarily from ejected lava fragments is called a cinder cone 4. A wide volcano that produces mainly basaltic lava flows is called a pyroclastic materials 3. It results from the basaltic eruption of a mixture of both lava flows and pyroclastic deposits that contain less fluid materials and travel shorter distances. A has broad and moderately steep flanks and a steep summit. View Available Hint(s) Reset Help composite volcano 1. Match key terms to the appropriate sentence. Fill in the sentences below to explore the different types of volcanoes. Volcanologists classify volcanic landforms into three major volcanic types: shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and composite cones.
