[@thewizardguy] "a psionically gifted human of some potence, i'm quite surprised. usually your species is ecstatic about being able to bend the odd spoon with their minds. my purpose for being in this system of space is one of scientific discovery. my home world as you might call it, the place where i was 'born' existed many... you can hardly hear me, fine" he starts, however the psychic shielding made his 'voice' muffled at best, plus it didn't help that his body added an intimidation factor which most likely was what was leading the humans before him to be on guard at best. Xel'rath seems to disappear in a burst of light, all accept for his core which is then rapidly shielded by a more uniform body, though he changes the placement of his core to somewhere hard to hit as well as rarely hit and while he did not appear completely human in that his face was little more than a scanner shielded by some plating with audio speakers on the sides of his head, his newly forged torso was vaguely humanoid and one could say he had human hands though his legs were digigrade as they tended to lend themselves to greater speeds should he wish to swap over to a more quadrapedal form. "as i stated earlier, i was simply floating around, studying the various celestial bodies and wound up in this one's gravitational pull. i attempted to land somewhere close but not taken up by sentient creatures, though from what i gather from what that one says that the area i landed in was useless before hand, and therefore is no more useless now." Xel'rath states evenly, pointing over at the wool-covered humanoid that they'd come to detain. "though, if your purpose is data retrieval, why have you not simply disintegrated the ship? it is a much faster method of energy and data... oh wait, you're humans, i forget how primitive your species is" he says with a sigh as he makes a movement similar to pinching the bridge of one's nose. While high powered weaponry was pointed at him, acting intimidated by them would only cause them to realize a weakeness even if he was scared of them, it was always better to show an indifference to them.
