Chase for the Relic

A towering abomination with multiple red eyes scattered across its grotesque form, the creature stands amidst an ethereal landscape that seems torn from the pages of a DMT-inspired nightmare. Its skin is a tapestry of dark red and black, with intricate details that suggest a neo-fantasy origin. Horns protrude from its head, glowing ominously, while a tail whips behind it, adorned with spikes and claws. In one hand, it holds a scythe that seems to pulse with a dark red and light blue gradient, the blade itself surrounded by a magic circle. The creature's armor is as much a part of it as its flesh, with shoulder pauldrons and gauntlets that seem to grow from its very being, all under a red sky dominated by a blood moon.
