Skree looks at Zang with sad eyes. He makes a low purring noise, similar to what he used to do in the presence of Praxia, but a deeper, mournful sound.
any other investigation?

Argul searches for some insight into whether they may be mislocated in time, space, plane, etc:

Scrap returns the party's equipment to them - it is all there. Captain Rodger's crew stays down stairs and the party is invited to ride up. As the lift rises, the party can see through the transparent durasteel of the lift tube that they are on a large space station. It is shaped like a wagon wheel. It is floating in deep space. There are no planets or nearby stars. It is dark and quiet.

Rasso continues pacing back and forth. His gestures become quick and erratic. His voice becomes high-pitched. "I taught you how to walk the Planes.... I unraveled the mystery of Paradox.... and yet you still question me...
let the words flow
today of all days
just let them go
into the ether
to other souls
to other hearts filled
get drunk upon
their many meanings
today of all days
like a raging torrent
of bloodied wine
let the words flow...."
A distortion begins to form behind Rasso. Is he consciously creating it or is it a reflection of his mind?

Any theories before I reveal what happened? bonus XP for the party if you figure it out

MAS wrote:Argul steadies himself, reaches out and gathers the collective intelligence gathered near him (the party and the being that Zang is speaking with), then links them together with a telepathic bond so that they may all communicate freely.
"Mr Zang...are you going to introduce us to your friend?"
MAS wrote:"Powerful....perhaps, your Highness, but none so magnificent as you" states Argul in a flattering tone, keeping a straight face and not letting on that the party can see through her deception. He does his best to physically catch the attention of the rest of the party and winks at them as if to say "play along!".
"We are at your beck and call, how may we be of use to you?"

MAS wrote:A few, but they are spells vs this SLA, and I am trying to keep on the down-low for the moment. I didn't go too far down the rabbit hole with mind-reading/psychic stuff because the campaign seemed to be leaning away from the subtle and towards the openly confrontational. If things had gone down the path I originally thought we were going (more of a "Vampire: The Masqerade" plotting and scheming feel) I would have delved much deeper into the true "psychic" capabilities of the class.

Robyo wrote:"The Enemy is indeed resourceful, Your Worshipfulness." Zang sheaths his scimitar. A gesture of faith. "You must show me the way to avenge your world."
GM, can we target the source of the voice?

Argul can tell that this Xeno-Praxia is like a psychic server. She is in communication with the party but also with many other entities. Argul didn't notice them at first because they were dormant. However, they seem to be stirring now....
navyik wrote:Brick is looking around nonchalantly, pretending to know what's going on. U super, he silently reads the complement that Zang scratched in the dirt. Why yes I know that... I am super, Brick smiles and tosses his hair.
What is taking so long, just tell me when to wrestle something, he thinks.
