Cinder's eyes dart around without moving her head, taking in as much of the foreign ship as she can before they are led into the large room.  She decides she gets a distinctly uncomfortable feeling from the old man before them, but she halfway discounts it to her usual discomfort before those in positions of power.  She keeps her eyes on him, though, and the droids, and takes a position standing at the admiral's side and a little behind, slightly facing the door.  
[color=crimson][i]Cinder, get a read of how these droids work from one of the Nemoidians. Might give us something to pass along to Raven if we need leverage later.[/i][/color]
She makes no sign of acknowledgement, but her shoulders slacken a bit as she throws her mind in a net around her.  Now that she is closer, Cinder can recognize the differences between the human mind and the mind of these "Neimoidian" creatures.  She slips into the thoughts and memories of one, immediately stifling a shudder at the slimy feeling she gets from it and the overwhelming greedy confidence.  This...thing...was worse than the inhabitants of some of the slums she had visited.
Shoving unnecessary thoughts aside, Cinder focuses on its memories of the droids.
Her probing reveals far more than she had expected, and she quickly sifts through the creature's mind with interest and bewilderment.  She checks a few more aliens, just to be sure.
Shit.
She snaps back into herself, her eyes widening.
[color=cornflowerblue][i]They seem to be a common metal, maybe a reinforced aluminum or something, nothing special...but fekking hell, Crim, watch out for the ones with the little metal cylinders!  So far it looks like the only person with one here is this Dooku fellow, but for criminey's sake, be careful.[/i][/color]
Cinder stops, composes herself, and quickly relays what she found.
[color=cornflowerblue][i]I got lucky.  The things I checked had seen some action.  The cylinders seem to be some form of psi-blade, and can deflect the energy bursts those droids' guns fire.  But that's not what worries me.  These cylinder-people can jump insanely high, have crazy-fast reflexes, can choke a person without touching them, and heaven knows what else.  It doesn't look like they have any equipment to help them do it, and it doesn't look like the psionic abilities I've ever seen either.  I don't like this.  Looks like some of them don't like others enough to kill them.  The blade color seems to vary depending on faction...What in hell have we gotten ourselves into?[/i][/color]
