Camille smiled kindly at the clone and accepted his hand. After the brief pop of interdimensional travel, the Convert en Passent seemed completely unsurprised by the result and gave the same kind smile to the others who had already arrived. It raised its hand, thumb, index and middle finger raised but ring and pinky fingers lowered, in greeting. "Salutations, fellow mammals. It is a pleasure to meet those with which I will be working."
(For anyone who can detect psychic energy, Camille's limiter is currently set to access only 10% of its brain capacity at this time. All of its powers are thus essentially off.)

Gunter glanced over at the man who spoke up in greeting, or was it a girl? Either way, he frowned at the unusual greeting. "What's with the 'fellow mammals' thing? That's not how you greet people. And 'salutations'? What is that suppose to mean? Some sort of insult?"

Greatest of bounties, unlearned humans.
"It's merely a more formal greeting, animosity needn't be stirred over a simple 'hello', the 'fellows' implies this one considers you to be of similarity."

"Hmmm. It is simply not a word that exists where I come from," he said, heavily annoyed by this other man's explanation. The bird perched on his hand jumped down and landed softly on the floor as Gunter moved him arms, one bent infront of him the other behind him, and moved his left foot back, lifting up the heel as well. He then bowed to both of them, bending an almost perfect 90 degrees, a clearly well practiced bow. "Then greetings to you both, it is a pleasure to make your aquaintence. I am called Gunter von Kleist, but please, refer to me as Gunter. I look forward to working for-...I mean, with you." He came up with a practiced smile, but it really came off more as a smirk.

"I most certainly did not intend offense," the Convert answered apologetically. "I have simply been for some duration in the presence and civilization of a reptilian species, so being able to work with my own mammilian kind is a welcome change." It motioned to itself, bowing in an alien manner that only vaguely resembled some form of kneeling curtsey. "I am called Camille." It pronounced the name, "Kah-mill-eh."

The demon in ironic clothing nodded at each of their introductions, he offered a bow of his own, though it was certainly different from the one he'd performed for Toriji, he simply lowered his head, his arm cushioning where he barely bent at the waist.
The purely formal act was over fairly quickly as he placed his forefinger and thumb to the side of his face in thought, "I would be Dantalion, I'm sure you've never heard of me. I assume there will be others like yourselves arriving soon by his highness's good graces."
A mere mercenary? Surely there was more than met the eye with this one. The other was some manner of oddity, the reptilian creatures it spoke of sounded more interesting than the being before him.

The Comic had been discomfited by the teleportation, he had undergone something like that before but not on this scale, one of the heros he had met had been capable of short range teleportation. When he appeared it wasn't obvious that he was disoriented as his face was hidden behind his mirrored helm.
He lifted his gloved hand in greetings to the unusual group already gathered. "So is this the meeting of the justice league I was brought to attend? I must say I expected a few more of my fellows to show up."

"Justice League?" Dantalion parroted with a great more deal of disgust, a tone that matched his affront to how the newcomer looked like he had as much fashion sense as a blind man.
Another human freak, chump change wouldn't hurt, he rationalized.

Gunter too showed quite a deal of disgust with the appearance of this latest person. He didn't quite know how to describe it in words though as he'd never seen some one with such a horrid sense of fashion. He even withheld giving this newcomer a greeting, instead opting to not even look his direction from here on. Just how did the man who brought him here think that mess of a person was going to help him, he couldn't fathom.

"I can tell you more of the Korag if you wish," Camille told Dantalion. "It is my understanding that we have roughly a month to pass before events actually take place. It should be sufficient time to educate you in what I know."
Of course, while the demon's interest in the Korag might have been an educated guess, no one had told Camille of the expected timeline of events.

*Obadiah*
Shortly after ringing the doorbell, a muffled curse, followed by a few crashes, were heard and the door, not to be outdone, itself flew off its hinges, though it was aided in this regard by a protruding boot; shortly the person wearing the boot stuck his head out, and, on seeing the vaguely generic seeming person standing in front of him, grimaced, and followed through with the rest of his body, along with a nasty looking zweihander, which was currently pointed at the chest of the visitor, who was quite clearly unwelcome.
"You've got till the count of now to tell me why you invaded my living space, and the count of three to leave."

"Yes, the justice league, legion of superheros, you know a gathering of heros, though I must say again I expected a few more of my fellows." The Comic was a little disheartened by what he saw, no one here looked like a hero with any skill or fighting abilities. Well aside from the guy with the sword but he didn't look hero like.

"I'll be delighted to listen to your data later."
The mention of the month deadline was noted by Dantalion, and he made the assumption that Camille was somehow informed of it as well, the silence from the deemed 'brute' didn't contradict his logic, "Ah yes, a month of preparation, I'm glad at least someone knows the details."
His shot a glare at the ill-dressed one who was wasting his breath explaining his foolishness. For all good intents and purposes he didn't directly comment on it, instead he addressed the bone demon prince again, "Surely his highness shall inform us of our mission when he deems his... specialized forces have been gathered and acquainted."

"Ah, Brilshaden. It was my mistake in tleportation that brought me within your house. I meant no offense. In fact, I've come to offer you a job if you are interested. I'm sure someone who has survived this long could easily lend a hand." He ran his fingers along the blade of the zweihander. "She's a beautiful blade."
*Demon Realm*
Toriji gave a shrill whistle and the other clone within the crystal chambers vanished in a puff of smoke. "Dantalion speaks tryuly. There is one more combatant that I am waiting for, but that aside, I am happy to see you all here." Casting his arms slightly upward he swept them over the room in a waving gesture. "Welcome to the Crystalline Palace. I'v already told you all that you are enlisted in some way to help me. I've chosen a variety of specific skill sets to assist each other optimally. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if any harm came to any of you." Dropping his arms he looked at each of his soon-to-be allies. "I'll be explaining things in a little more detail once our final member shows up."

Brilshaden jerked his weapon away when the stranger started feeling it up, and shoved it into its sheath, which was currently laying up against a nearby wall.
"Well, it's not for sale. My services, on the other hand, are purchasable, though I require more money and riches than I expect you may ever have. Furthermore, since you look to be an ambitious lordling, I further require your sworn promise not to try to hang me once you achieve your goals. It hurts like hell."
