Crinoth Exit Wall Panel (Illusion)

A featureless metallic panel lining the chamber wall, its surface unremarkable to casual inspection. When pressured by K9’s physical examination, the panel shifts slightly to reveal a concealed access point—but only under precise interaction. The Doctor’s dismissal of K9’s identification exposes it as a flawless holographic deception masking the true escape route, its shifting seam betraying the Nimon’s technological camouflage amid the doomed complex’s collapse.

S17E18 · The Horns of Nimon Part 2
Romana discovers Nimons gruesome storage

The wall panels form the structural backdrop of the chamber and serve dual purposes: as potential escape routes when manipulated correctly and as deceptive surfaces that erase navigational markers. Their hidden mechanisms, triggered by Romana's examinations, represent the Nimon's corrupt utilization of organic energy systems.

Before: Seemingly solid metallic surfaces with faint seams across the chamber walls
After: Partially shifted and reconfiguring through internal mechanisms causing panel erasure

S17E20 · The Horns of Nimon Part 4
K9 leads the way through hidden passage

The supposedly solid wall panel is revealed to be a flawless holographic illusion masking a concealed exit; it withstands repeated physical and staff-based attacks until K9’s assertive transit shatters its deceptive integrity and exposes the true passage.

Before: Featureless seamless metal superficially identical to surrounding architecture.
After: Destroyed or dissolved by the complex’s ongoing collapse after the group passes through.
