2A: Basic Tech Challenge: Navigation Although coaxing the unusual vilekin out from the pupa hadn't been too difficult, Rhea'li's struggles begin with the very first challenge. While he's long adapted to the loss of sight in his left eye in his day to day life, the hand-eye coordination needed to direct his bursterfly is proving to be a task more difficult than he anticipated. It is so easy to overshoot the distance he intends as he attempts to direct his bursterfly to evade the bursts of light and shadow, and his ability to gauge where the crystalline structures are in relation to each other is rather lacking.
He doesn't show frustration when he has to restart his bursterfly again and again (and again), but he does take a moment of observe others as he does so. If you've the inclination to give advice, he's all ears.
And if you're someone who's breezing through the challenge, he'll approach with his restarted bursterfly and joystick when you're taking a break from navigating your bursterfly. "This seems a rather simple task for you." A wry smile. "Do you have any advice? I'm having quite some difficulty..."
2B: Basic Tech Challenge: Harvesting Circuit building is not something Rhea'li has any experience in, but he does have some experience with noting observations and adjusting patterns to influence outcomes. His table in the workshop has his spellbook at a safe distance from his materials, the sight of the familiar mathmatical arrays and arcane geometries helping him to draw inspiration and understanding of these circuits and how they affect the bursterfly energy levels.
He may have also stuck one of his bursterfly's wings into his mouth and bitten (lightly) on it at some point.
However, he's also the sort who struggles to sit still for long periods of time and studying has never been his strong point, even if his notes -- written in a battered journal -- are fairly detailed. So when he loses focus, he'll wander over to other Otherworlders and observe them building their circuits. If your attention is distracted from your work by his quiet arrival, he'll ask, "Everything alright? Would you like assistance?"
Other If you happen to wandering near one of the rivers cutting through Magisteria, you may spot Rhea'li at the banks with a fishing rod made of a material and design he's unfamiliar with. There's fish in the river and he's determined to catch them.
