Probably partly my fault. I was hesitating on a post mostly from indecision on what to do. Sorry this hasn't gone as planned. :(

Lyrr makes himself available to help in the efforts to save Hamster.
Gotcha, thanks for the feedback. If we do edge toward something else, I have been wanting to run Extinction Curse 2E. But, also fine with sticking to Starfinder. Currently in the middle of game for Extinction Curse. Highly recommend it, but fairly heavy workload on the DM's side, from what I hear. EDIT: I've been tossing around the idea of running either Age of Ashes (PF2) or Reign of Winter. I'm just not entirely sure if I want to start something only to find that I've over-extended myself.
I'm up for whatever. I like playing Lyrr, though it's been tough fleshing out the voice/character. I will admit that Starfinder is a bit harder to get into, as well, but if we want to keep going then let's do it! If we want to do something else, I'm okay with that, too.
Stowing the rifle away, Lyrr gets to work on the synthesizers. "Low-quality synth food better than Hamster's cooking."
Sorry for lagging behind been a bit of a blah week. :(
Watching for the inevitable, Lyrr takes aim a ray of ice at the little creature attacking Adrius
Lyrr waits to see what happens before they find a spot to shoot from, not willing to jump out without more information.
"Ooh!" He points a blue finger up. "But I have very limited telepathy. Does telepathy work with androids? Shall we give it a try?" He looks eager for Lyrr to say yes. "No," Lyrr replies, rather abruptly, as they put some distance between themselves and the lashunta, turning their attention to the new room.
Lyrr takes some special interest in the prosthetic limb, examining it carefully for any hidden secrets.
As they examine the device, they greet the newcomer absently. "Good cycle. It is a pity that you turned out not to be an A.I. That would have been more interesting, but I suppose that can't be helped." They look up at the Lashunta suddenly, as if a thought suddenly struck them. "Can it?"
Is anyone actually trained in Medicine? If so, they should carry the medkit. Anyone can carry the medpatches, I am glad to do so. Ugh... flesh is nasty. :D As for the Stimulant, I found it here: http://thehiddentruth.info/player/equipment/items/medicinal?page=Stimulantt ier1
Lyrr look at Urian with a slightly hurt expression, "Alien technology," they accentuate slowly for the human, making sure that the full meaning is understood. They turn back to the medical bay and start to examine the contents a little more closely, hoping to find something interesting.
"Does this ship have an A.I.? That would be most interesting to find out how it works." Lyrr takes a moment to hear the voice, then they respond. "We also come in peace!... Except when the other things tried to kill us. That was not our fault!" After a moment, though, they realize that they are not actually talking to an AI, but another living being. "Oh!... Well that's disappointing."
Disappointed with the results, Lyrr takes a step back from the control panel. "This must be a highly advanced technology," they explain casually. "I suggest that we keep searching."
Eager to test their skills, Lyrr takes a crack at opening the door.
Slinging the rifle back over their shoulder, Lyrr goes to the door that the creature had been trying to get into, seeing if he can't find a way to open it, and make sure that it wasn't trapped and/or locked against the creature.
"Remind me to never visit the plane of fire," says Lyrr almost absently as they ready another spell through the weapon. "Seems like a very violent place." Cast Energy Ray at the elemental.
Thanks guys. So quick update. Finally got into the dentist yesterday. Decided enough was enough and had the tooth pulled. They could have just capped it, but there was too much risk that the infection would linger, and I was just not having it. Some pain involved, but no where near as debilitating as it was previously. Let's get our game on! :)
To this point, Lyrr had been quietly exploring the unusual ship with his eyes, filing the experience away for later to go through it with more details. At the sight of another threat, the android sighs audibly and levels his rifle again. This time, though, rather than pulling the trigger, he seems to pour his will into the weapon and causes a blue ray to fire from the barrel. Cast Energy Ray at the elemental.
Hey folks. Sorry for my recent disappearance. The last couple weeks or so has been a little rough. The issue that I was having with my tooth wound up turning around and hitting me -literally- square in the face. I got seriously infected, and I had to wait a few days before any of the dentists in town were willing to look at me. Thankfully, I've been on another round of antibiotics which has been getting rid of the infection, and I should (hopefully) finally be taking care of the troublesome tooth. I'll be going through my games as I am able and playing catch up. I hope that everyone else is staying healthy.
"I am unharmed," says Lyrr, doing a visual examination of himself, "but there is no reason to take chances. Flesh is frail, after all." The android doesn't seem to be making fun or light of Urian's condition. Just simply making a casual observation. Slinging the large rifle over their shoulder, Lyrr prepares to head back to the ship.
Lol... that's definitely something that I took into account with Lyrr, hence why I took the 'Transfer Charge' spell. Very handy. Drain charges off power sources as he comes across them.
Trying to make themself a smaller target, Lyrr goes prone, but continues to fire at the strange creature.
"Very odd indeed," Lyrr replies, lining up their next shot.
Sorry for being absent the last few days. I've been having some dental issues, which has been causing me a lot of pain, but I'm slowly on the mend. Working on catching things up.
You didn't bold anyone, but I figure that it's our go. ;)I do that at least once out of every combat. It's hard being stupid some days. These days, that's all too easy. Sometimes I just like like being an ass and point out the obvious. ;)
Surprised by the sudden vehemence from the creature, Lyrr back up, unslinging the rifle from their shoulder and taking a quick aim at it before firing a shot. "This is why I don't tend towards religion. Too much emotion."
Lyrr seems intrigued by the strange creature. "Wish? That is some power to provide for whimsical demands. Can you provide equally whimsical cybernetics? I seek to improve upon myself."
Lyrr shrugs at Eschade's response, realizing that anything could be possible at this point. That said, they keep their rifle slung over their shoulder, picking up the Onyx chucks as they pass by, thinking that they could be useful down the road. Taking in the site of what would normally be such a simple thing in any other ship, they suggest, "Shall we go say hello?"
"Hmm.. yes. It looks like this plate right here should open the door." They look back to Hamster, "Do we really expect to have to fight the people that we just saved? That would be... rude."
Too excited at the new prospects that have fallen into their lap during this trip, they is unable to focus enough to truly appreciate the magnificent creature just floating out in space. Still, Lyrr is capable enough to get his gear together and join the others at the airlock. If it is locked, he'll turn to Lyrr. "Think you can hack into the ship's controls?" Lyrr blinks, as if seeing the human for the first time, before he responds. "Assuming that their technology is not all that dissimilar from our own, there is a chance that I could do so, yes."
At the mention of augmentations, Lyrr starts talking to themself, if perhaps louder than would be expected. "Mmm. Yes. Augmentations. What could possibly turn a living creature into a space-faring vessel? Very interesting. I must look at it. The things that I could learn. Most interesting...." His vocal volume quickly decreases as his musing start to ramble.
Lyrr sighs with a sound of regret as he pulls the trigger once more, releasing a missile at the creature that, in better circumstances, would have been a beautiful sight to behold.
It seems that he may have unconsciously pulled away at the last moment.
Getting information from the targeting computer directly into their visual receptors, Lyrr swivels the turret around for another shot at the whale-ship.
Yeah. Ship combat is pretty lengthy, from everything I've seen and heard.
Somewhat reluctantly, Lyrr makes their way to the turret controls, but knowing what is on the line sits resolutely in the chair. "I shall make sure to gain it's attention. Hang onto your hats, as they say." Once they are clear of the station, Lyrr unleashes the turret weapon.
Magic Officer uses Mysticism.
Lyrr can start on the turret and move to another station as needed, if that's what you want.
We should probably solidify what Eschade's position is. I can easily fill Science Officer or Engineer (or both, if that's the need). But if you want to take care of one or the other, that's okay with me.
Lyrr watches in fascination to the events happening on the screen. "That technology. The design. It is unlike anything known in this galaxy. The knowledge contained within may be irreplaceable. I do not know if we are capable of helping, but I feel that we must." The androgynous android follows Hamster back to the ship. He turns to the scientist, "Perhaps I shall have to talk to your doctor later."
After their previous discussion, Lyrr watches the former passengers intently as they attempt to contort their bodies with the help of various sounds. Intrigued, he attempts to replicate their movements for a short time before giving up, finding no benefit to the strange ritual. "I will stay as long as the ship is here," Lyrr replies to the doctor, "Or I won't. Do you have any cybernetic specialists in these facilities? I would very much like to talk with them."
"Lyrr - a strange expression, or idiom - to "stretch" one's legs means to stretch the muscles by ambulation. Long periods of sedentary posture is deleterious to the efficient functioning of biologicals' limbs. Observe the feline or canine companion species - whenever they rise from sleep they stretch out before moving. Humanoids have lost this instinctual capacity and so must be reminded to do so. Thus Ham's use of idiom to present this function." Lyrr contemplates this information, head tilted upwards. "Hmmm... interesting. I wonder if that means that felines and canine have more efficient bodies. I shall have to research this." He turns to Eschade, "Thank you for the information."
Lyrr looks at Hamster with the usual blank expression on it's face, making it hard to tell what it's thinking. "I happen to know that humans have no natural means of extending their limbs in any fashion, so either you have some kind of modification that I have not detected, or you are using one of those strange expressions that your species likes to use." Eyeing the massive reaction cannon that he generally uses, he wonders aloud. "Think we should bring weapons?" He stands from his station and slings the strap of his rifle over his shoulder. "There are options?" the android asks with it's strange androgynous voice.
Lyrr watches the pilot, noting that this one seems to like spouting random bits of information about itself that seems to have no bearing on the current situation. Thankfully, he is interrupted by communication. "Perhaps we should let them know who we are, rather than who you used to be."
All the best names use two words, often that have odd interactions. How about "Horizon's Shadow"?
Probably for that very reason. And you're welcome. :)
