Naitier Tanal's page

Naitier dismisses their searing fire as they let themselves relax. "We should contact station security. I rather not have random attacks on the station be common."

When before Chiskisk with the Ambassador speaking about their efforts, Naitier holds themselves with a bit of pride hearing the positive impression they had left. "If there are any others from Neeroon that arrive, I will treat them with the same respect and trust that the Society offered me when I first arrived. The Society and the Pact Worlds have been welcoming and I'm glad we continued to demonstrate to you today."

Naitier doesn't have a weapon ready to take advantage of the opportunity, but with the robot distracted with Triage, the copaxi unleashes the thrumming spell from their body. The spell signature shatters at the blast of force fires into the robot point blank.

Attacking the Robot, Hopefully it can only take one AoO per turn.
Attack vs EAC, Coordinated Shot: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 1 = 19
Piercing (Force): 3d8 ⇒ (1, 2, 3) = 6
Another -3 HP for myself.

They then draw a knife and move to aid Ikmanji in the melee. Naitier pushes close allow the lingering, searing heat around the body to continue to burn the robot.

If the robot begins it's turn adjacent to me, it will take 1 fire damage from my scouring aura.

Focusing their magic Naitier declares, "your momentum has drawn you toward destruction."

Casting Soul Surge targeting robot
Attack vs EAC, Coordinated Shot: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 1 = 9
Piercing (Force): 3d8 ⇒ (1, 4, 5) = 10

The attack likely fails to connect through as the preasure of the attack sends it off target. Naitier redoubles their magical control to retain that fragment of lost magic.

3 damage to self, have scouring aura. Since the attack probably misses, I spend 1 RP to retain a spell echo of that spell that I can cast in the next few rounds without using another slot.

Naitier moves up while drawing their pistol to hand as the stand aside Triage to help create a shield against the robot's potential attacks.

Keeping their weapon low and ready Naitier declares, "lower your weapon, to do so is baring your fangs for attack and will not allow for that."

"Not clear yet. Although we are rapidly stabilizing the situation."

Naitier avoids another attempt to strike with their whip. With the numbers far more in their favor, they aim their static arc pistol to the rooftop across the street. They know they are opening themselves to attack, but trust I-apvii and Ikmanji to back them up.

Inspiring Static Arc Pistol vs EAC, 50 ft range increment: 1d20 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 3 - 2 = 20
Nonlethal Electricity Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

This probably provokes an attack from Mall Rat green.

Holding the packages firm, Naitier pulls them and himself away from the lashing whip. "I was hesitant to unleash my magic, but you have pressed forward toying with powers immense."

Focusing their energy into a massive blast, Naitier casts their spell into the ysoki that Ikmanji is facing.

Casting Soul Surge targeting yellow
Attack vs EAC, Coordinated Shot: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 1 = 15
Piercing (Force): 3d8 ⇒ (2, 3, 4) = 9

The typical damage of the spell is left behind on Naitier along with the familiar fiery aura that threatens enemies that come too close.

Naitier readies their arc pistol as they look around in response to Valodet's alert. "That many?"

Shuffling the packages in their other arm Naitier looks around as they bluster a bit toward the ysoki they see. "You shouldn't be following so close to us. We are open to offering aid to those who need it, but you don't seem to be keen to making that request. The powers we have are just as capable of the harsh powers of the universe as life life-giving portions."

Naitier postures a bit as they try to intimidate the closest of the ysoki.

Intimidate: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Survival: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Survival: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

"I would say that we are in a cage of sorts. Stations and starships alike."

"We plan to tame and give the squox an home where it can receive exceptional care and not disrupt park activities or ecosystem." Gesturing to the group, Naitier continues, "our team has a number of expert animal handlers who are capable of calming and training all manner of creatures that live among the stars."

Naitier does their best to describe an emphasize the skills of the group as they demonstrate.

"I had not seen in my Absalom Station research that park animals could not be acquired freely. I can't tell if that is a failure of my sources or poor assumptions on my part. My world had far fewer public places with a wealth of wildlife." Naitier says as they consider the matter.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Naitier restores their focus and joins the others speaking to the groundskeepers. "Given the multiple benefits our attending to Squox," they say gesturing to the statements from Gus and Valodet, "maybe there is method where we can officially remove this animal from the park. I do apologize as I'm also still becoming accustomed to the customs of this station and hopefully you know of a way we can settle this in a way that benefits both the station and our dignitary."

Naitier smells the air to try to get a better gauge of the squox's position as they move with the party. "I'm uncertain what they might eat, but I can try to aid in guiding them out. If I am close enough, I will be able to sense it even without sight, but I'm uncertain if I want to get that close."

Aid someone's Survival to help lure: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Survival (Untrained): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Naitier moves along with the party as they look about the park trying to keep an eye out for the wild creature. "I see paths intersecting of the creatures that dwell here. I will admit though I'm uncertain how we might try to tame such creatures. This is an instance where my magic offers little solution."

Looking to the others they ask, "do you think they will give you any trouble?"

Speaking to Triage as well as the others, Naitier offers, "while my magic has a devastating bent, it does have another side that is less commonly seen. I can provide some magical aid to alleviate it, although it wouldn't treat the cause."

If it can at least help alleviate the symptoms while the medicine begins to work, Naitier can cast lesser remove condition to at least reduce a bit of the issue.

Aside from that, Naitier tries aid with Valodet's impressive efforts. They try to use the knowledge they have gathered from the various Pact residents to help navigate taboos.

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Naitier is more than impressed with the meal. They admire it for a moment before setting into the food. "This feels more akin the meals I've seen the upper class have on my world."

Seeing the reaction from the Ambassador, Naitier seconds Gus's suggestion in an attempt to allow Ikmanji a tactful way to pause the meal. Raising a glass Naitier adds, [b]"the work that has already been done on your world is magnificient and to the future ventures you are bound to achieve going forward.

Diplomacy? Don't have Deception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12

"I also allow you to peer into my thoughts. I have yet to try a significant sampling of the meals on offer on this station. I'm interested to see what you would prepare."

Feeling out of place amid this negotations, Naitier lets those with a few more years of experience to hold the Society's position well.

Naitier relieved to be back on station up until seeing the bouncers blocking the way.

Sense Motive, untrained: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

They are taken a bit aback by Triage's suggestion. "I... well... I will admit that the cultures admit the Pact Worlds themselves are varied much less those from the Veskarium. I was shocked as to how many greeted me on my arrival by lowering their head." Naitier pauses a bit as they straighten their posture, "it felt like so many were ready for a fight."

Glancing at the array of vesk bouncers, Naitier nods with affirmation toward Valodet's suggestion. "Maybe we could put off the duel to the death challenges. Maybe giving them respect while presenting strength? It is hopeful that there may have been a cancellation that we could take the place of if they felt we were worthy. Maybe if we are lucky the Pathfinder Society has provided aid to them in the recent past. At the least not left a negative impression as it has on several others in this system."

"My first time encountering them, but I'm sure another will share in a moment." Naitier finishes addressing the ambassador as they turn their attention to the power systems and try to direct power away from the weapon system to ensure they don't accidentally discharge.

Engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
I'll also use my reroll to improve that result.
Engineering + Nova: 1d20 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (12) + 6 + 3 = 21

Lowering their pistol Naitier squeezes against the wall to approach the trouble maker. "I won't take that risk then."

Coming right up to the largest of the gremlins, Naitier calls upon one of their spells to drain the energy from the charged creature.

Casting Fatigue on the purple troublemaker

Attack vs EAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
SR if Required: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16
This spell doesn't provoke, if it hits the creature must make a DC 14 Fortitude save or become fatigued for three rounds.

If I can't get around the grease, I'll attempt the acrobatics check at my +0 bonus.

The numbers back in the party favor Naitier focuses a shot over Ikmanji. Locking their polyps in place they take a steady aim before firing a shot at the biggest troublemaking gremlin.

Targeting Purple Troublemaker
Inspiring Static Arc Pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Nonlethal Electricity Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Move and attack.

"Be careful, these technological terrors can issue waves of heat as one of their magical talents."

Seeing the sudden surge of their numbers, Naitier reappraises their tactics. "With the magic they are capable of, holding my own in reserve would be unwise."

Casting Soul Surge targeting yellow
Attack vs EAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Piercing (Force): 3d8 ⇒ (7, 1, 4) = 12

The spell leaves some damage in the wake of the launch along with a fiery aura that surrounds Naitier.

The spell does 3 damage to me.

Because I spent a spell slot, a fiery aura surrounds me (that doesn't hurt my allies), but can be dispelled as a reaction to prevent some damage from an attack or spell.

Mysticism to Identify: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14

Naitier holds their position at the back with the Ambassador. Given the nearby equipment, the copaxi holds off from unleashing their magical reserves for the moment and instead draws pistol and taking a shot at the nearest gremlin.

Attacking Purple Troublemaker
Inspiring Static Arc Pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Nonlethal Electricity Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

And they are grateful that it wasn't anything more powerful as it flies off the mark.

Naitier is less confident than Kokaksa, but they don't vocalize. They just take in the air as they follow into the engine room.

Triple Move

Naitier listens to the automated script with some confusion as they suggest, "that is certainly a list of some of the vessels around Absalom Station. I don't think those were pointed out to me when I first game to the station."

"I suppose I'm learning more as well with this trip."

Gesturing to some of the other vessels Naitier notes, "there are some other interesting vessels surrounding the station that do not involve illicit activities and are more akin to Valor’s Heart. There are a few vessels that share lessons among the Pact World and provide symposiums on various subjects. They are less constant around the Station, but I have have been interested in attending one because of the varying voices they bring from throughout the Pact and beyond."

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

With the burst of turbulance Naitier pauses their description as they account for the party again. They did take note of the group dividing up, but their focus had remained elsewhere until the ship began to shake.

Engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

Sending out a call to the others Naitier makes a concerned note, "there shouldn't be this sort of turbulence this close to the station. Is everything still stable where you are?"

Naitier excuses themselves following as they go to check the systems to make certain this old ship was still holding together.

Engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Naitier adds to their message to the others, "there are a number of malfunctions in the aft engine room. I'm not sure what the cause is, but I am worried this is a precursor to a larger event if we don't intervene."

Culture: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

"I do recognize your enthusiasm and desire to press forward into these opportunities." Naitier notes as they describe the ambassador's preference for emphasizing action over planning. "The automated ships that Periphery Stars uses have proved a profitable use of their older starships. They should provide an enjoyable tour around the station."

"I joined the Society following them visiting my world a few years ago.
It was only a short time ago where my people were disconnected from the rest of the rest of the universe."

After a moment Naitier presses forward as they contemplate their past a bit as they clarify, "while there is always opporunity and change in any copaxi, I have always felt a connection to the flow of magic that connects me to the rest of the powers that reside in the stars and the space between them. My people have been long wary though of magic and I have felt judgement and distrust as I explored these thoughts."

"The one that originally shared with me the base studies of magical theory had a far more difficult life that myself. I was glad to be able to give them some amount of comradeship before they past on, but I do feel frustrated and wish they survived to be able to join with cultures and studies beyond our world."

Naitier doesn't reminisce for long, as they let the task for memories to fall to the core of themselves as the othermost speak of the present. "Even from when I was young, I have seen recent change and I can say many of my world are more open, but still nothing in comparison to the Pact Worlds."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

Naitier takes the moment to relax as they declare

"That is the reason I have come to the Pact Worlds, to both expand upon my talents and nature without among those who have walked the same path as me. I have found my time welcoming and I would want to share those feelings with others."

Sense Motive (Untrained): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21

Naitier enters the meeting with some frustration as the rotate one of their arms uncomfortably. Some of that carries into their tone as they end their stretch early and enter the meeting. "I'm sorry for my slow arrival. My preparations took longer today, but it will not interfere with my obligations."

Taking some time to catch up with the briefing Naitier ponders, "I understand he is welcoming to those incapable of flight to his planet, but I'm curious the reverse can be said for Absalom Station. I have not thought of the layout from the perspective of a flight capable species."

Seeing Valodet and Nandipha's presence, takes another moment to compose themselves as they introduce themselves, "I'm Naitier of Tabrid Minor. A mystic drawing from the powers of ongoing magical change flowing throughout the universe. As of current there has been more change within myself I've now begun to resolve."

Research Rat whispers to Naitier, "You know what I think a happy ending would be? A raise, that's what!"

"If I was in a position of power, I would make that happen for you and many more."

Naitier pulls back a bit as they add, "I can at least be satisfied with this for now as we work toward that."

Going forward Naitier returns back to the Spike at Absalom Station to help spend their off days providing aid to those that there. They also offer to send various messages to Avid Dreamer especially putting them in contact for other novels and stories they have enjoyed.

"Experience upon my own world made me similarly concerned Triage. I'm still wary, but I'm hopeful for the safety of Avid Dreamer, AutoMaint-13, as well as any others." Naitier settles themselves as they take a calmer demeanor rather than pressing for an aggressive negotiation.

After a moment Naitier asks Representative-1120, "I would like to have ongoing communications with Avid Dreamer, if they would allow for it. I would still like to provide some communication admits the emptiness between the stars."

"We will support you in approaching the question and allowing you to continue forward. We won't let them undo the gains you have made and we can ensure it is in their interest that your safety is paramount. I've seen how those with power treated others on my world and I hope I have learned to be better."

"They should be no strangers to sentient life and provide aid without any damage."

Diplomacy to Aid: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

"I'm uncertain the location and development of the spirit. My body is composed of a set of components. Some contain the sum of my knowledge, but I do not believe my soul exists within them or would be reduced if I had lost any of my polyps. I believe that is also the case for the rest of the others, although their component parts are far smaller and more numerous."

Mysticism: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18

Naitier is hesitant as the mull this over. They carefully try to understand themselves the nature of the ship. "You seem to be describe feelings and emotions that make you feel complete or less so. I feel their weight within me even though they have no gravity. This is not a system failure but our spirits feel their absence or presence."

Given a moment they review the provided diagnostics looking to add to what they have learned examining the engineering systems.

Engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Naitier does what they are able to help with investigating the engines as they silently ponder the logs and descriptions of Avid Dreamer.

Engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

"My world had descriptions of artificial intelligences losing control, but many things my world have taught have felt more and more misguided and fearful given the time I've spent in the Pact Worlds." Naitier steps away from the engines as they head toward the bridge with the others, "broadening beyond what I was taught in the years since I came together, it seems clear life is diverse and varied. Your dreams and thoughts are no less possible or important than those of anyone. I want to make certain we do all we can to help you. I rather you continue to grow Avid Dreamer."

"I will admit that my world has none akin to your own." Naitier pauses for a moment as they organize their thoughts. "You seem to be an intelligence born of technology. I've seen more within the Pact Worlds, but none as newly awakened as your own. I want to make sure to help you. I don't wish to leave you alone as I fear letting you be within the darkness between stars."

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Naitier is so focused on the shot that they aren't prepared to for the charged laser blast. Realizing the blast is fully changed only as it fires, they don't move and their armor takes the full laser blast.

Following an anguished cry of pain Naitier follows up with a shot. "My over confidence has led me to approach the sun too closely. I'll fall back, risks are not something I am looking to maximize."

They back up quickly after that to give room for other allies to close in.

Static Arc Pistol vs EAC, Get 'Em: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 3 + 1 = 20
Electricity Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Naitier moves forward and trains their static arc pistol on the remaining repair drone. "Excellent shot Djakar. Both from the rifle and I assume the camera work. With one left, hopefully we aren't likely to be dismantled ourselves."

Attack vs Green
Static Arc Pistol vs EAC: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Electricity Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Naitier avoids a bit of the blast and steps back. "Despite all this, we may wish to be more understanding. It won't help anyone to make them an enemy despite all of their fear."

Focusing on the present threats, Naitier casts another use of soul surge. More of their life force is expended as the spell fires forward into the drone.

Casting Soul Surge targeting Red
Attack vs EAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Piercing (Force): 3d8 ⇒ (2, 4, 2) = 8

-3 HP, have scouring aura.

Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Reflex: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Naitier is shocked by the sudden laser blast, but is faster at dodging the second. They stifle any audible alarm as the armor seals away the damage and Naitier focuses on helping calm trying to calm the AI. "You can trust us though, we heard your call and Multifold sent us here to help. We don't want to leave you when it will still take a long time to send more help."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

The tone suffers as Naitier ducks and dodges the weapon fire.

"It has been several days, but I believe the original message might from this ship used that name, Avid Dreamer." Naitier looks around at the ship as they take in the scene before adding, "their mechanical nature seemed apparent with the way they spoke following our entry, but I was still assuming they were the pilot. My world does not have any creatures with notable artificial intelligence, so I didn't realize what forms they could take. With the number of androids, holograms, and robots, I had begun to limit my thoughts to imagine them as humanoid in their limits. It seems like, much like my grasp of the nature of stellar forces, I am far out of my depth. Avid Dreamer is the starship we are currently walking through?"

A bit more open as they hear the AI continue to speak through the comms, although it being terse dialogue, Naitier goes off of Djakar's dialogue ot try to calm the AI down. "We want to be able to help you. I might not understand what you are going through, but together with our friends I'm sure we can put it right enough so that you can rejoin Automaint-13 again."

Full Round to try to talk down.
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

"I feel like my culture has placed me in a poor position to be prepared for this, but AutoMaint 13 isn't able to come at the moment. I would suggest we talk this through without sending turrets or other things to reconfigure ourselves."

I will hold off a second. If I get some room, I can step back and cast a spell to dispatch the fabricator Dirindi is attacking.

Naitier shield is broken as it expends energy blocking most, but not all of the blast.

Expending scouring aura to prevent 2 of the 3 damage.

With the turrets dispatched Natiier notes, "we probably should look to repairing them even still. I doubt we are leaving a good impression as we tear through the ship. That probably should wait until after we have convinced the controller of the ship of our good intent."

"At least that is my hope."

Naitier joins the others in keeping a more wary eye out for sensors and other things that might trigger security systems.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21

"I would like to discuss this more as well. We should be avoiding destructive options. My tools are limited though. At the least I can see about removing these cannons to give us the chance to learn more."

Focusing a blast of force, Naitier casts another spell trying to break the nearest of the turrets.

Casting Soul Surge targeting Red
Attack vs EAC: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Piercing Force Damage: 3d8 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) = 9

Afterwards a fiery aura formed from the magic shields Naitier.

Causes 3 HP damage to self.

"We should continue to be wary. I was not expecting the controller of this ship to be as intelligent, or frightened as they appear. Given the bleakness and emptiness around us, I would rather lead them to the light then stumble through their fears.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25
Survival: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

The noise across the ship gets Naitier's full attention, their polyps nervously seeking within their armor. Focused on the distance Naitier asks, "did we get any records of the manifest that would say that the ship was transporting living creatures?"

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Naitier looks around at the moving machinery and does their best to catch up with the situations. They shift uncomfortably within their armor as they feel their senses hampered by the armor. "I assure you that we do not mean ill will. We would not wish bring harm any more than you do."

"We were sent here to provide aid to the ship, based on way you speak, it feels as though we made a misstep not providing a better introduction."

Full round Diplomacy
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

If that hurts the party I would use my reroll.

I've created a blank slide on the map for a marching order and gave a very rough marching order for the party. If Jek wants to be at the back of the party they can swap places.

Naitier readies magic as the blast of explodes outward and relaxes a bit as Djakar recovers. "I certainly don't recommend you have your klickharp friend near the fore if the ship is this hostile towards intrusion."

Moving to check on Djakar and allows the others to expect the airlock. "I don't want to intrude into your recording or present any issues of scene continuity, but do you want any aid? That was more force than I could conjure. I can finish mending your body or wait until we are not floating outside an airlock."

Taking a few moments to acclimate to the gravity and their armor, Naitier cautiously follows along with the rest of the party.

"I will admit I felt less trepidation until reaching this moment. Hopefully there isn't unimaginable horrors dwelling within the systems and we will be able to find the cause quickly."

"Automation to this scale is impressive, but I admit I am more considerate of the issues of the laborers."

Naitier mulls this over just a moment before admitting, "even still, there are more reasons to provide assistance rather than deny them. If we were the ones to get this message, then there is likely a reason for us to be the ones to respond."

"Given the time it takes for them to respond, it would seem wise to accept the offer and request information now while we head toward the damaged vessel. Delaying our travel to that ship may be cause more issues."

Coming out of their meditations, Naitier watches the group work at decrypting the message.

Adding to Ikmanji's comment, "possibly the brevity of the message means this is a generic, automatic message. Even still, I find it unusual that there is no request for assistance, but I'm uncertain on galactic culture on requesting aid. As it is, I assume the corporation is playing a high value on privacy."

"There has been no experience regarding Historia-Prime that has not left me wary of what the future might bring and my own lack of ability compared to others that have come before." Naitier ponders on their wounds a moment before focusing on the matter of Ruby-17.

"However, today was a welcome opportunity to reverse damage that had been dealt rather than hold back the entropic forces."

****

No Day Job

In the following days Naitier makes it a point to return to the Sparks. There they try to focus on honing their sign language and partaking in the entertainment the neighborhood. They even make it a point to commission work for equipment from the residents where able for new gear, food, and attire.

Continuing this contemplations they try to help people in the community that is familiar to their own.

Naitier meditates on this as they let their thoughts mingle and build and lets them out as they share the matter.

"Offering a suggestion is difficult for the same reason you ask for advice Ruby-17. Now that you are free, there is little limit to the choice you have and all choices feel they could be the right choice for you. I believe you would be happy with any path you took as long as you take on one that you truly take on for yourself."

Naitier looks at the building and suggests, "you have done a masterpiece of work here and it was apparent to the care taken to make each of these simulations. I have read how much you enjoyed putting time into them and it would be a loss if Historia ruined your enjoyment of this work."

Looking more to the others Naitier notes his concern, "There are others in the area that would treat it as a boon if this place was lively and active. I would hope that the Society not leave this place barren, but after your years of service I'm hesitant to suggest she focus on the desires of others before herself. If she wants to remain her because she enjoys it I would endorse it, but not if she is doing it out of obligation."

Naitier would be fine with Custodian, but if it is something she wants without the pressure of helping people here.

Naitier is very happy that the combat is cut off before the giant robot could managed to do anything analogous. They are even more elated to see that Ruby is restored and able to speak with the party.

When the question of advice comes, Naitier is forced to ponder and they try to focus as they let the suggestions of others to filter in. "I am uncertain that I have the experience to offer a well drawn suggestion. My preference is toward exploration, but so much of that is due to the same desires that made me leave my home world in the first place."

"I personally would not wish to join into Guidance, partly due to my youth and then because of my concern of lethal computer simulations." Naitier traces magical signatures to calm themselves. "I would understand if you decide to follow such a path, but for me the others seems more well illuminated options I would be more comfortable with."

"I do know that the neighbors here would like this place to not sit abandoned, but hopefully the Starfinder Society can put good use to this facility whether you remain her or not. My preference and suggestion is exploration of the world."

Placing a hand on themselves they add, "I do have a personal preference for having a body myself, but if you are hesitant then using a projector may feel more comfortable, at least for the time being."

Mobile Projector recommendation.
