Lower Floor:
Teyth observes for a moment and then joins in attempting to open the doors, probably stymied by the fact that he lacks a nose.

Teyth will follow, looking down each side passage as he passes it, until reaching the ladder. DM: Is there any writing on the walls, labeling various rooms or anything like that?
Teyth follows Raegar down the hallway which his nose has chosen, his metal talons curiously silent on the metal floor.
DM:
[/ooc]On the way down the stairs, Teyth is probably examining the walls, first determining if the glow is intrinsic to whatever material they are made of or if it is from some other source.[/ooc]
T IS NOT NECESSARILY FLOATING, AEGAR. E COULD VERY WELL BE IN THE UPPER REACHES OF A STRUCTURE BUILT ON THE OCEAN FLOOR. Teyth also enters the room and absolutely silently does a full circuit of the walls, motioning Raegar to stay still until he has completed his inspection.
CONCUR, ERAN. AEGAR, IT APPEARS THAT THE ISLAND IS RETRACTING BELOW THE SURFACE OF THE OCEAN; THE DOME HAS PRESUMABLY CLOSED TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE OUR NEW SUBMARINE POSITION. With that in the way of explanations Teyth continues down the staircase very much uncaring whether everyone else is eager to follow him or not.
DO NOT KNOW. Y CREATORS ARE NO LONGER EXTANT, SO PERHAPS THIS SHELTER WAS INTENDED AS A REFUGE FROM THE CALAMITY WHICH BEFELL THEM. AEGAR, SHALL WE INSPECT THE REST OF THIS REFUGE?
H, AEGAR, WELCOME TO THIS ISLAND. OOK AT THIS STRUCTURE, IT APPEARS TO ME NEARLY OF AN AGE WITH MYSELF. Teyth continues looking down the staircase along with Verrin.
AEGAR, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? HROW THE ANCHOR, OTHERWISE HOW WILL YOU MEET THE INHABITANTS OF THIS ISLAND? The Island: NGENIOUS. Teyth thinks for a moment on the subject of humanoid noses before moving to look down the stairs in the center of the dome.
Island: HE WRITING IS COMMON, ALBEIT THE ANCIENT QUADRAPATIAN FORM THEREOF. T READS:
EFUGE 13 OR ADMITTANCE APPLY ORESNOUT. As he recites the text on the sign, Teyth's voice takes on what you assume is a perfect recreation of the accent of the ancient people who wrote it. OW WOULD YOU PLEASE AID ME IN ALLOWING MY COMPANION TO DOCK HIS SHIP.
NE MOMENT, PLEASE, APOLOGIES. Teyth shouts back.
Island:
Teyth then begins examining the dome and especially the writing on it, only then proceeding on to examine the island itself.
DM:
Island: Teyth looks at Waynab for a moment. HIS ISLAND IS WHERE THE MYSTERIES LIE. HERE ARE THINGS TO BE LEARNED HERE; THERE IS NOTHING TO BE LEARNED ON THE PENELOPE.
Above Water Protuberance Type Thing:
Teyth greets both Xeran and Zoggie with a handshake ALUTATIONS, AM TEYTH'ANDRASKEHAR. T HAS BEEN LONG SINCE SAW ONE OF YOUR KIND, MEPHIT. He turns back to Xeran. O YOU HAVE ANY INSIGHTS OR OBSERVATIONS ON THE NATURE OF THIS ISLAND? He then turns to shout towards Raegar circling the island. AEGAR, IT WOULD BE OF VALUE FOR YOU TO MAKE THE ACQUAINTANCESHIP OF THE INHABITANTS OF THIS ISLAND.
Hey look I'm on an island too!: Tayth less than gracefully hauls himself onto the island and stands before Verrin and Waynab and Xeran. REETINGS ERRIN AND AYNAB AND... Tayth pauses, clearly trying to remember a name he does not know before plowing ahead in his smooth and inhuman voice. FIND YOUR ISLAND QUITE FASCINATING, CAN YOU TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT IT?
Raegar or Perception DC ~25:
Tayth surveys the island in a manner which would be unblinking even if he had eyelids, searching in vain for a place to dock the boat. AEGAR, PLEASE EXCUSE ME FOR ONE MOMENT. APOLOGIZE. And without further ado he leaps overboard making the easy swim towards the island in a practiced manner. Tayth says something which you cannot make out from shore and then leaps over the side of the boat in a flash of silver and begin weaving his way through the water in a streak nearly indistinguishable from the silvery reflections of light on the waves.
Out for a Sail: Tayth clearly sees the fireworks going off on the island. AEGAR, THERE ARE SPELLS EMANATING FROM THE ISLAND IN QUESTION. HYPOTHESIZE THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO SIGNAL US, ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS, THEY HAVE EXTREMELY POOR AIM. AM MOVING TO INVESTIGATE.AEGAR, ARE YOU EVEN AWARE THAT AM SPEAKING. Tayth proceeds to steer the boat towards the island, completely oblivious to the fact that he may have just said something which could be construed as a joke.
On a Boat: Tayth stands motionless at the helm of the Penelope. If one did not observe him long enough to see him make an occasional arm movement to adjust the course of the ship, one might wonder why the owner of this ship had installed a statue in that particular location. Suddenly, he speaks in a smooth and fairly non-human voice. AEGAR, I BELIEVE THAT THE ISLAND AHEAD OF US IS ABERRANT. CANNOT RECALL IT BEING ON ANY CHARTS OF THIS AREA. DDITIONALLY THERE APPEAR TO BE PEOPLE UPON IT. ERHAPS THEY KNOW WHY IT IS HERE.
ET US ROCK THIS TOGETHER, AEGAR AND FELLOW ADVENTURERES. Damn, It's going to be annoying to do Teyth's voice, but it looks pretty much like how he would talk.
Here is the crunch on Helthos. Description and Backstory coming soon... Also, Ronin, are there rules in Pathfinder for having a bayonet on my crossbow? I think that would be pretty cool. |
