Inspired by a line in the Deep Whisperers page, which states "Byundi kept saying unkind things about not being able to join" I made this page to record those and more chats, idle chats, she may say.
She is highly charismatic and interesting.
(I will likely forget about this and never EVER update it [it's here in the case I do], I may need a DW character too, to get them all)
This is a female svirfneblin with pale blue skin, black hair, and glowing green eyes. She seems lost in constantly-changing thought, peering curiously at everything in her surroundings. You recognize her as Byundi the Psychic Scientist, a curious svirfneblin obsessed with research into the nature of telepathic communication and the psychological ramifications of thought interchange. She maintains a loose association of test subjects who call themselves the Deep Whisperers, a group of telepathic volunteers who allow themselves to be experimented upon psionically and gather scientific data regarding the results in exchange for access to the ability to psionically bond to a familiar. She looks about six and three fifths dimins tall, two and seven twentieths dimins wide, and three fifths of a dimin front to back. She is in good shape. She wears a diminutive cotton trenchcoat around her body, a diminutive cotton pants on her legs, a diminutive cotton blouse on her upper body, and a diminutive pair of white rubber and cotton shoes on her feet.
This is a starved-looking male wikatz with black fur and glowing green eyes. His eyes take in his surroundings with a piercing, even analytical gaze. He looks about five and a tenth dimins long, one and three tenths dimins wide, and two and eleven twentieths dimins tall. He is in good shape. He wears a small cyan wool tailwarmer on his tail.

[OOC Marcosy] Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " So some crazed maniac, yelling [OOC Marcosy] something about how I had ruined his life or something, just tried to kill me. [OOC Marcosy] I wasn't hurt, but I can't say the same for that huge stack of documents [OOC Marcosy] containing data from Wargotu. When this sort of thing happens, I try not to [OOC Marcosy] let it get me down. A quick shock to the ol' hippocampus and I'm right as [OOC Marcosy] *zzt* ". [OOC Marcosy] _ [OOC Marcosy] [21:10] [Byundi lost 1025 units of data from Wargotu]
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Dang it. I almost fell into a huge chasm, but I managed to regain my balance at the last minute. Unfortunately, I dropped a bunch of documents that had all my notes on the data from Tragic. Sometimes, I wonder if I should just give up my work. Then the mob catches up and I just don't have time for that sort of defeatism! ". Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Crap! I got attacked by some kind of....well, I have no idea what that was, I wasn't really paying attention. Luckily, I managed to distract it by throwing a bunch of data at it from Mochi. Better get to work replacing it, huh? I know you can do it! ".
Byundi exclaims, " I love working on my theories, particularly when I get to work with kitties. So cah-yooote! " in Nanomi. Byundi asks Subject 8, " Is it OK if I experiment on your brain, Subject 8? " in Nanomi. Byundi exclaims, " Want to do some science? You'll probably survive! " to Subject 8 in Nanomi.
Byundi bounces around. Byundi seems to concentrate intently.

You concentrate on transmitting information about your experiences to Byundi. Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Alright! You're coming through loud and clear. I'm getting a lot of good data across the connection. Hang on, let me just make some notes... Ouch, that sounds like it was very painful. Interesting! Okay, I've gotten everything down. I'll look forward to your next transmission! Have fun! ". You feel suffused with a sense of profound satisfaction and intellectual keenness as you experience some of Byundi's scientific joy at your findings.
Yes, you can get the transmission message before the first message Byundi sends you.
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Hello? Is this thing on? Can you hear me? Well, of course you can't 'hear' me, but you know what I mean. Or at least I hope you know what I mean! Anyway, it looks like the telepathic link was successfully formed, and you didn't even die or have any kind of fit or anything! So, hey, whenever you get a chance, concentrate on transmitting information about your experiences to me! If you could do that periodically, that'd be just super. Thanks again! ".
You concentrate on transmitting information about your experiences to Byundi. Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Okay! Um, I'm not quite sure how to say this, but this data just really isn't sufficient! Perhaps you could go out there and have some kind of a life-changing experience, or maybe read a really good book with your familiar, or maybe just get into some wildly dangerous situations? You know, the usual! Anyway, good luck! ".
Looks like you can transmit after gaining any amount of XP:
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Alright! You're coming through loud and clear. I'm getting a lot of good data across the connection. Hang on, let me just make some notes... Incidentally, if anyone asks you about my whereabouts recently, just lie. Interesting! Okay, I've gotten everything down. I'll look forward to your next transmission! Have fun! ".
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Alright! You're coming through loud and clear. I'm getting a lot of good data across the connection. Hang on, let me just make some notes... Did you feel any itching sensations afterward? Interesting! Okay, I've gotten everything down. I'll look forward to your next transmission! Have fun! ". You feel the sense of satisfaction and intellectual keenness suffusing you renew and strengthen.
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Alright! You're coming through loud and clear. I'm getting a lot of good data across the connection. Hang on, let me just make some notes... I wonder if that will ever grow back? Interesting! Okay, I've gotten everything down. I'll look forward to your next transmission! Have fun! ".
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Hey, check this out! I was reviewing some of the data you sent me and it looks like I can unlock some forgotten experiences within your mind! You probably shouldn't think too hard about why you forgot them, though. Better off that way, I'd imagine. ".
You gain some XP.
Byundi's voice echoes in your mind, " Hey, did you know that it's possible for a direct telepathic connection embedded at the core level to make actual modifications to the physical brain tissue which hosts the connection? Well, it totally is! Pretty cool, huh? Uh, no reason I'm mentioning it or anything, because I'm certainly not performing untested brain surgery on you remotely or anything like that. Therefore, any weird experiences you might have in the next, oh, four seconds or so are almost certainly just a figment [of your/an] active imagination. ".
You feel a searing cacophany of pain tear through your mind as some distant force disrupts the connections in your brain.
You again experience the dizzying sensation of a hidden floodgate opening somewhere within your mind, realizing that you now possess the psychic talent of an empath. [event logged]
If you don't have any telepathy at all, she says:
Byundi says, " You don't seem to possess any telepathic ability at all! I'm afraid you would not be at all suitable to participate in my experiments. " to you in Anglic.
If the join attempt fails, this happens:
You experience a strange sensation within your mind of ebb and flow, a sort of rhythmic pulse composed not of sensation but rather of modes of thought. You suddenly feel something going dreadfully awry, as the pulse of thoughts within your mind becomes a disordered jumble of chaotic sensation as a sensation of searing pain erupts through you and you feel your mind becoming badly damaged by the uncontrolled psychic energy.
You will get a mental disorder.
You might suffer a lot of head damage, to the tune of 73.7 HP, or even more. Probably that's where the "your head might explode" warning comes from. Though as it has been demostrated, you don't necessarily die with such damage. Thereafter, she says:
Byundi exclaims, " Uh oh. Are you okay? I'm afraid it looks like you aren't quite suitable for a psionic bond. Perhaps if you were to open your mind a little and be a little more sensitive and caring towards others? This process doesn't usually work when the subject is a stuck-up conceited jerkface. Not that you are one, I mean! " to you in Anglic.
