MechonRaptor — Roleplayer Guild

So many new faces in the dark, it was hard to keep track of them all. Keelah, was this some sort of joke? While he was relieved that they weren't Eclipse, a part of him wished that they were instead of... whatever they were right now. Bicking, arguing, threats... They acted like bosh'tets! When he had asked if anyone was down here, he didn't expect it to fill with violence so hastily. If he knew that it would have gone so wrong so fast, he wouldn't have wasted so many credits and favors just be on Earth. Not to mention explosions and... Ugh, he'd have to replay this later on his Omni-Tool just to get a better understanding of the situation, glad that he had started an audio recording after asking his question on the off chance he would have been killed. At least then the cryptics being used on them would have made sense if it was a planned assassination.

So Rayes'Xum Vas Fowal took a deep breath, taking a moment to recollect his thoughts so that he could better examine the situation. There was first the dreaded human, full of hostility... What a pitiful man, Rayes thought, to be so on edge and angry. A waste of life, a life that should have gone to a much more suited species like a Salarian or Turian, or better yet just dead. At least then, Rayes thought, he wouldn't have to deal with the human's presence. He already distrusted humans, and this man made him feel like he was back on Illium, making the situation more hostile than Rayes assumed it had to be. Certainly wasn't good at first impressions...

The Batarian, however, was not what Rayes was expecting in the slightest. He thought Batarians were soldiers, not prophets, and this one seemed older as well. Initial observations gave the impression he was tired and religious, two things Rayes never understood, at least for Batarians. He knew of something called Pillars of Strength that the Batarians may have worshiped or something like that, but he never bothered to look into such a ridiculous claim.

The Asari, he could go on for ages what how she, along with the human, were making bad impressions all around. While he wasn’t certain if she was the one who set off an explosion, she felt like the kind of tasi would do so. Not to mention her behavior was unprofessional, even for an Asari. While she broke the norm of Asari being knowledgeable or at least somewhat professional acting, that wasn’t a good thing to Rayes. How, he thought, did she not know of the Geth being good now? They had helped Quarians make great strides since they became individuals, and Rayes respected that immensely. So much so, that it deteriorated his opinion of them.

In fact, the only real person among this group that Rayes felt was anything worthwhile was the Krogan, odd as that was to say. For a species that was meant to be rather crude and headstrong, he was the only one who was making sense to Rayes. Keelah… He wasn’t sure how to handle all of this. There were more people, but the sheer amount of nonsense that he felt only made him stand off to the side and stare at them questioningly. He wondered why they all had been called down to Earth in a trashy spot… Was it simply to get them to harass each other? No, that would just be idiotic. Rayes especially didn’t waste as much as he did just to be harassed and watch these events unfold. He stood there, silent, lost in his own thoughts while they continued into madness until a commanding voice boomed through the station.

So when the truth came out, Rayes couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief at the new situation. There was two of them, Spectres, who had initiated this gathering. While he felt how they did it was rather moronic, at least they had good intentions? Keelah, he thought, it was a rather bad attempt. Was it to keep them from telling others, or just simply a test? If it was a test, then indeed like the one Spectre said a majority of them failed. Even if he didn’t like the idea of being under a human, he was a Spectre similar to Shepard, and since Shepard helped them reclaim their homeworld, Rayes believed he would help others keep the peace. It was the least he could do after feeling bored on Rannoch after all. And the sight of a Turian Spectre made him feel slightly more comfortable, reassuring him that this could be worth it.

He watched as the Geth and one of the Krogan stepped forward as the Spectres asked, and decided he would as well. Walking out of his little area, he decided to stand next to the Geth Phalanx, bowing slightly towards the Spectres as a sign of respect before deciding to give his own introduction.

“Keelah se'lai, finally some sort of explanation instead of pointless bickering. As you two know, I am Rayes'Xum vas Fowal; an engineer who worked on the Crucible, weapons creator/modifier, potential hacker, and overall tech specialist. While the conditions sound somewhat awful, they pale in comparison to what I've dealt with. Besides, it would do better to keep the peace than work in a lab doing nothing."

There's always potential danger in Mass Effect :P

But, using my character as an example once more, he didn't come expecting it to be overly dangerous. In fact, the worse he thought it could be was an Eclipse attack, but he felt that was highly unlikely and thus came. All he has in terms of weapons is a pistol and his Omni-Tool's blade, and he isn't that experienced in combat to begin with, so why expect a bad situation?
He most likely thought it would have to do with something about how he helped construct the crucible or something technology related. But because he didn't know exactly, he took a risk to find out. Though at the moment he would probably be staring at everyone slightly dumbfounded by what has been happening. Either that or joining in on the Ellis hate xD
