"I take it none of you have any experience with or knowledge of his species?" John whispers at Cat, unaware of the telepathic powers of Dala he could use instead.
"Weakness? Come test thy mettle against me, hairless ape, and we shall know who is weak!"

Dala shares her telepathic message to all party members and continues "I am no expert, but the individual we have here looks very young. And a lot, I repeat, a lot, smaller than fully growns.

Cat makes a strangled noise.  It could be dismay; then again, maybe she's just got hairballs.

Oh, that's just ducky, she thinks.  I'm sure Mom and Dad will be thrilled that we hit their little angel with a car and skewered him with claws.  Uhm...anyone have invulnerability I could try to copy?  Or maybe invisibility, or teleportation?  Something like that?

"Wait, telepathy?"
John asks Cat, visibly surprised by hearing the thoughts of the rest of the group.

"Do you know if this creature's race is a peaceful race and we'll be able to talk to them, or are we in very deep trouble?"
John thinks, hoping that Dala catches on to his thoughts.
"Weakness? Come test thy mettle against me, hairless ape, and we shall know who is weak!"

"Creature, what should we call you? And you want to play ball? I should have one around here somewhere..."

Dala leaves the room without saying anything and gets a football (American, sigh...) and tosses it to the Creature. "This is sort of a ball. Not really a ball, but some people call it that. You can toss it around and have other people catch it. Carefully though. Want to try or should we get you another ice cream?"

"Creature try ball." Creature throws at Dala, with the force of a 50mph foot ball

There was only a fraction of a second to react, but it was enough for Dala to put on her personal force field. "Oh crap..." she thought after blocking the ball.

"Say, did you like it? Also, I'd love you to toss it a bit slower."

Well, heck...someone DOES have a forcefield!  And Dala also has mind-reading, which could be pretty handy, come to think of it.  As Dala introduces Creature to the joys of football, Copycat does what she does best, reaching out with her powers, searching for the residual energy signatures, attempting to replicate both the telepathy and the forcefield.

Reason FEAT rolls for Residual Absorption


The telepathy...that's hard.  It just doesn't LEAVE all that much of an energy signature.  She gets it, but her grasp is fleeting, and she knows it will fade.  The forcefield, though...aah, that's another matter.  A lovely, bright signature, one she can really grab hold of.  That one just might stick around...which is a good thing, all things considered.

Creature tosses the ball back with a force equal to that of a 25mph foot ball

"So what do we do now?" John asks mentally while keeping an eye on 'Creature'.

"Is there any way to contact it's species? And would it be wise to contact them?"

No way to make contact, and if you did, they would be hostile

"Nice throw, Creature! You like playing ball?"

Then Dala says telepathically to his party members "I believe there is very little we can do with Creature. Someone should ask how he got here..."
