Origin[]
Tsingy de Bemaraha Strict Nature Reserve is a nature reserve located near the western coast of Madagascar in Melaky Region. The area was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990 due to the unique geography, preserved mangrove forests, and wild bird and lemur populations. It is characterised by needle-shaped limestone formations, above cliffs over the Manambolo river. The incredibly sharp limestone formations can cut through equipment and flesh easily, which makes traversing them extremely difficult.
Effects[]
When the plank is placed on the ground (not including the floor of multi-story buildings), razor sharp limestone spikes will burst from the ground, breaking through any flooring and shredding/piercing anything in it's path. The formation and direction of these spikes are random each time, and sizes are known to vary from knee-height to more than 8-feet tall.
Trivia[]
- This artifact was used by Agent Garrett against "PhOto" Barry in a desperate attempt to protect Mordin Korss.
