Mechanus Trip

[Anastasia]

Done. The cat leads you to a third floor window of a building nearby, a sunlight window. Here kittens play around the room, all gray and black in varying amounts. Nearly a dozen of them, a mother cat watching them all and lying down. Looking in, you can see saucers of milk and food are there, though no sign of anyone but the cats in the room.

[Ebiris]

It's easy enough to dimension door her and her guide into the room, at which point Alicia kneels down and holds her bare hand out on the floor palm-up. The first kitten to approach her clearly loves her the most and will be adopted!

[Anastasia]

A cute black kitten comes right over, smiling and meowing cutely as it nuzzles against your hand. A male on a glance.

[Ebiris]

"Hello little boy," Alicia says, gently rubbing her finger against the upper side of the kitten's head. "I suppose I'll be taking care of you now. I'll call you... Martin," she decides.

Alicia is one of those people who likes to give animals people names.

[Anastasia]

"Meow," Martin says, and you feel it. Untrained, raw and decidedly unfeline. The cat has a spark of mental power, instinctively touching your mind.

[Ebiris]

Touching the mind of a deity is an easy way to have it shattered for most creatures, luckily Alicia sees it happening and makes sure to be gentle in turning aside that instinctive probe. "You're a clever boy, aren't you?" she reaches under Martin to pick him up. Given that they seem to be on solid food it should be safe to take him away from his mother now, and she looks at that resting dame. "He'll have a good home with me," she tells her, teleporting her guide cat back to his sunny ledge before she and Martin teleport to her and Syala's room in their palace.

[Anastasia]

Martin meows softly, reaching out to bat at a bit of debris kicked up from your teleport. He bats it around and then brings it back in the general direction, a direct and crude application of telekinesis.

[Ebiris]

Alicia's eyes glow blue as she watches Martin play with the flower petal.

Using Arcane Sight SLA:
If you concentrate on a specific creature within 120 feet of you as a standard action, you can determine whether it has any spellcasting or spell-like abilities, whether these are arcane or divine (spell-like abilities register as arcane), and the strength of the most powerful spell or spell-like ability the creature currently has available for use.

[Anastasia]

Martin is a natural psionic. He's using unformed psychic powers, essentially the natural lash-outs of a sentient creature growing up and into the beginnings of power.

What a cat is doing with that potential is anyone's guess.

[Ebiris]

Reaching out to stroke Martin's fur as he exerts his psionics, Alicia looks at his mind next.

Detect thoughts, mainly to see his int score.

[Anastasia]

His Int score is 2, but you can also sense potential there. Latent for now, but potential.

[Ebiris]

Interesting. Well, she's not an expert at this sort of psionic business but it's a type of magic so she'll do her best to nurture Martin's growth, even if nothing much is expected of him beyond not scratching the furniture or fouling the carpets. For now she'll just play with him a bit to bond with her new pet.

[Anastasia]

It's pleasant. A thoroughly mortal thing amid divinity, as you also concentrate on prayers and miracles.

Far away, a warrior battles on the rooftops of Kelara, crossing blades with a dogai. In that one moment Davodel of Arad battles the devil, forced out into the light of the sun. You hear his prayer, an instinctual plea for your protection.

Two lovers, one calling your name as they unite for the first time on their wedding night. An earnest plead, a desire for so much in the coming days, months and years.

A tired acolyte, Jeremy Sparran. He practices magic missile again and again, struggling with the phrasing, yet never stopping save to request your guidance.

Amid all of them, Syala appears at your side. "Cute." She smiles, kneeling to pet Martin, "So what did Sharess do to get you to do this? I'm pretty sure these cats were going to be a surprise for me, not you."
