Durvatesh
Durvatesh grips the arm-rest of the chair tightly, his retreat into instinctive subconscious being the only thing restraining him from ripping the two pieces from where they are attached. The next 'broadcast' splits his mind into thousands of states - perhaps more, as some existences switch out for others in an inability to comprehend every single one. The electronics that once whirred away inside him feel as if they cease to exist, leaving huge hollow spaces in his body. Sometimes it feels as if they have been replaced by living tissue again, sometimes merely partially, and sometimes it's merely an empty hole. Millions of faces race through his thousands of minds in mere seconds, too quick to even understand if any are unique or repeating copies. Then, in an instant that immediately saps his mental energy, everything snaps back into one existence. There's a pressure all around him, the room bathed in a dull red light he can only barely process existing. It's a slow, torturous moment, wherein everything seems to be physically pressed back together. Then, suddenly, it's over. Many things had become impossible after the changes Durvatesh needed to endure. This moment brought one of the rare times he feels thankful for that, as his mind forgets itself and he tries and fails to vomit over the floor.
Durvatesh leans back in the chair, a feeling of relief and an intense desire to relax falling over him. But this would not be such a time; "In case y'all forgot to change before we took off, now would be a good time to do so. Border patrol's Hounds will have smelled our arrival and they'll be on us soon, so we had best look the part. Well, those of us that can afford to." An electronic crackling emits from him as a quiet, but deeply resonating, manner of chuckle rumbles out. Static distorts the voice at first, though gradually clears. As it does, a ship suddenly appears between them and Isyn - Right on time.
Durvatesh unbuckles himself from the seat, slowly pushing himself up. The rough-sewn rags that cover his form fall nearly to the ground, a dark mesh set within a low-hanging hood. It covered him, but it didn't do well at 'hiding' him; the body's proportions still looked... off. Padding indeed hid it a little bit, but one could tell with only a little inspection that something is wrong. 'Though,' he considers, noticing the end result of Kaloy's transformation as he turns around, 'there's a better one.' "You," he starts, pointing towards the elf, "comrade, I need..." pausing for a moment, Durvatesh gestures to himself, "A better disguise."
