Alfheimr

Tabrynth was interested in the activities of other worlds again. At random, he set a Dimension Gate from the Veritas to open up in a world he'd never been to. The portal expanded in the tavern doorway and the black crystal known as Tabrynth hovered out, immediately assuming its humanoid form as a professor in a velvet violet suit, bearing lavender hair in the shape of long horns with a clump of hair over the eye, and the black crystal set in the chest like a necktie. The hovering humanoid's black gator skin shoes touched down on the ground and the Dimension Gate behind him closed. "Greetings!" Tabrynth said vivaciously, "I Am Tabrynth, Hail From The Veritas, Come To Explore New Worlds!" He saw quite the variety of people and was interested. "Where Am I?"

Tabrynth casually listened to what was going about the tavern, his psychic powers allowing him the capability to fill in some of the blanks and read people's reactions to him. "Ah! That Language Sounds Nordic! A Realm Of That Nature, I Presume?" He lifted from the ground and hovered around the room, inspecting people, yet also keeping a respective boundary. "Hm. I Daresay This A Meeting Spot For People Of Different Realms, Am I Wrong?" He didn't take a seat, for he enjoyed floating, but when he was done inspecting people, he backed off. "Not Everyone Is From This World, Are They?" he inquired, making an educated guess from conversation, trying not to pry with psychic power.

Tabrynth nodded his head after being corrected, pinching his chin thoughtfully. "Fascinating. Fascinating!" Tabrynth smiled calmly, shifting positions in the air. "Nice To Meet The All Of You! I Pray We Become Good Companions!" His speech was strange and sounded like it echoed to a certain extent, though only slightly. "But, This World's Terminology Is Foreign To Mine Own. Alfar?" He looked around at what looked to be elvish people, trying not to read their minds and pry unannounced. "I Presume That Is Some Sort Of... Elf, As They Say?" They weren't called 'elves' in the Veritas, so he used what could be called a 'universal' term. "In My Dimension, They Are Called 'Ari'. There Are Quite The Variety... As I Presume This Place Has, As Well?"

Tabrynth continued to nod, gathering more information and devouring it, as he was made to do. "Interesting, Indeed!" He said, looking to the communication device he was being given. "Oho, Oh, I Am Sorry, But I Am A Translator In And Of Myself! See, I Am Not Exactly A Human... I Am A Technology Sprite, A Crystal, And A Dimensional Puzzle. I'm The Embodiment Of The Mind Of The Creator Of My Dimension." Tabrynth withdrew his formed body into his black crystal, the entire thing going up in digital matter surrounding the crystal as it hovered midair. "See? However, I Do Apologize For Any Initial Mistakes Made. It Takes A Little While To Adjust Myself To Any World Beyond Mine Own." The crystal emanated a light chuckle.

Tabrynth radiated and its voice carried out from the radiance of the crystal, saying, "You All Are A Kindly Sort. I Sense No Hostility From You In My Core." That said, Tabrynth started to assume its Technology Sprite form, wherein which digital energy formed the body of a small gray being wearing a black horned hat and harboring many technologically advanced looking angel wings on its back. He was smaller than the original humanoid Tabrynth, but hovered all the same. He had nubby arms and legs that tipped off into points, as well as tassels that flowed from the arms sinuously with two thin cords streaming from the backside. "This Is What I Look Like As A Technology Sprite," Tabrynth said. "But Enough About Me! What Of All Of You? You Pique My Curiosity."

Tabrynth clapped his nubby hands together and extended his many wings, which glittered with lights. "Extraordinary! So Nice To Meet A Variety Of People! Yes, Yes, I Am Familiar With Some Of Said Terms! Daedra, Midgard Of The Nine Worlds, Gods And Goddesses -- Why, We Have Our Share Of Gods And Goddesses Back Home In The Veritas!" He continued clapping, happy to hear new and old information alike. "However..." he said ominously, hovering over to Valerie, "I've Never Heard The Term 'Valravn' From Earth Before... And I've Studied Many Earths Extensively. We Observe Different Dimensions, Universes, Worlds, And Realities Back Home. Your Earth Must Exclusively Have That Sort Of Being. For My Databanks, What Exactly Is A Valravn?"

Tabrynth could feel the radiation from Valerie's mind and general biorhythms, which were askew because of his presence, which he presumed was because of his interest in the subject he hadn't heard of. "Forgive Me," he'd say as his body became digital matter again, shifting into the form of a disembodied holographic head -- a similar looking head as the one he donned when he first appeared. "When It Comes To New Information, I Can Get Quite Ravenous. Data Is My Food, After All. I... Eat It. For Nutrients." The head hovered over to a different part of the room, "That, And Technology. And Electricity. All Fodder For Me." He gave a dazzling smile, then chuckled nervously. "Please, Excuse Me." The head bowed, closing its eyes solemnly.

Tabrynth shied away from everyone after the readings he received from their minds and bodies. He wanted to tell them straight out that he was also psychic, but he felt like that would make everyone nervous about their own thoughts. He adjusted his form to fit the situation, his holographic head digitizing the rest of his body from the velvet violet suit down, his black crystal resting in his chest again. He cleared his throat, then placed his hands behind his back. "Hello. I Am Called Tabrynth. I Am From A Dimension Called 'The Veritas', Studying This Dimension And Making Friends." He bowed sheepishly, no longer as energetic as he was initially. "Pleasure To Meet Your Acquaintance."

Tabrynth didn't need to look into the minds of others to know their thoughts, for the mind released waves that naturally extended thoughts into the atmosphere with electromagnetic waves. He didn't need to peer into people's minds, but was prone to doing it on impulse. Still, the impressions he got were variable at best, which caused him uncertainty. "Um... We Of The Veritas Seek Peace With All Dimensions, That We Might All Live In A Realm Of Connection And Symbiosis With One Another," he put it simply. "I Am Psychic And Digital, So I Can Project My Thoughts For You If You Need To Check My Credibility." Tabrynth closed his eyes, slipped his hands in his pockets, and a screen appeared before them, reading off digital words. 'See?' it said.

Tabrynth let his thoughts read on the digital screen. 'Everything I Think Is Transferred To The Screen,' it said, 'And If You Need To Hear My Voice, I Can Psychically Project It, As Well, To Narrate,' which he did. They all spoke of things that Tabrynth wasn't aware of, however, and became curious about. But only the words on the screen moved, and not his body. 'Help? Help With What? I'd Certainly Love To. And We Of The Veritas Are Equipped For Anything Of Any Scale. Battle, Technology, Powers, Beings, And All.'

Tabrynth suddenly opened his eyes, the screen fading into digital energy. "Oh, No, I Can Return To My Dimension At Any Time. But I Am Intrigued By You All And Happy To Have Made Some Friends," Tabrynth said with a smile, opening a Dimension Gate behind him, "I Have Many Different Forms... So I May Not Appear To You In The Same Form Every Time. See, I Am Simply The Mind Of The Creator... But He Has Other Parts, As Well." Tabrynth bowed to them all. "Maybe One Day You Can Visit Us In The Veritas," he said. "I Bid You Adieu," Tabrynth concluded, stepping into the Dimension Gate and closing it behind him.
