After getting situated and becoming increasingly aware of the fact that there is likely no escape from this terrible place, Alexander retreated to the privacy of a free room and proceeded to THROW A FIT. Was all he worked for over the past 300 years for nothing? All those people he mercilessly tortured to harvest blood from, sacrificed in vain? If he ever did get back home at this rate, would his love even know him anymore...?

He would have wept if he hadn't lost the capacity centuries ago.

Instead, he calmed himself with the hope that maybe he could still find a way back home. A ship that could kidnap people from different worlds could surely put them back where they belonged with just as little notice. Or perhaps one of the stops after the next one would be his home world. There were possibilities. He wouldn't give up. He'd waited too long, worked too hard to throw it all away now.

After straightening the room back up, he grabbed his communicator, turning it over in his bony, withered hand. There was still a chance.

[Sup, Tranquility. Today we bring you the eerie but oddly soothing sounds of an old, old man. Doesn't he look silly with that cravat on over his jumpsuit.]

So it would seem that not all of us are human. How curious that you should all be so open about it... One has to wonder what sort of worlds you were all transported from. I have had more than a passing interest in the idea of traveling between worlds.

[More like he's devoted HIS ENTIRE LIFE to doing it, and most of it trying to get back home.]

Tell me. Do any of you non-humans possess any supernatural abilities? I wonder if perhaps they could be of use in our current situation.

...Ah. I nearly forgot. My name is Alexander. These devices are not my usual style of communication... I look forward to being able to meet you all face-to-face whenever possible.

I'm still in the passenger quarters if you ever need to find me, Alexander.
