An instance of a Consequential Cube inside Level 4 after a wanderer solved it.

Description

Consequential Cubes are a Rubik's Cube that when spotted in different levels are observed to always be scrambled. Each scramble has been seen to be different and always extremely difficult to solve. Consequential Cubes have the appearance of being heavily used and being old in all sightings. These cubes can be seen on indoor levels or rarely on outdoor levels. Consequential Cubes produce an odor similar to a stale pizza or a children's birthday party. No matter how much it is cleaned, it always has this scent.

Symptoms and Effects

When picked up, it will cause the person who had picked up the Consequential Cube to freeze in place until the wanderer solves the cube. However, the Consequential Cube will only be able to be interacted with by the person who made contact with it. Any other individual's hand that is attempting to interact with the cube has been seen to phase through it. This is the same for the user's body as well.

Although, if picked up by anything without human skin, it can be safely contained within a container and used in a different location of the wanderer's choosing.

Depending on the colored side that gets solved first, it can reward or punish the person solving it. It appears that each color is consistent with whether it is a bad consequence or a reward. However, the outcomes are randomized and are completely different for each solution. Although, the outcomes cycle through a list of different outcomes according to the color.
The list below states each color and each outcome it has. All of these effects can be avoided if the wanderer has prior knowledge of solving Rubik's Cubes. If solved completely, all effects will be reverted and the user will be teleported to a random level.
