[Have a spritely young bald woman in filmy clothes, perching on a scratched wooden desk and beaming at you. Her eyes are bright, bright purple and almost seem to glow slightly, and she is very pale.]

Hullo everybody! I'm Arkady, and I'm from the Island of Whitechapel. Of course, for most of you Whitechapel isn't an island, but we had a little problem with the Thames getting loose from its banks, and ever since then things have been a bit wet in London. Whitechapel has about twice as many people as this place, and we just took on a hundred more. We'll make do, though. We just need to pull together. [It's not clear whether she's speaking of Whitechapel or the Barge. Both maybe?]

I'm to be a Warden here, and if there's a need for help anywhere, do let me know! [She pauses, blinks at the screen, and then leeeeans forward and peers into it as if she can see some of you on the other side. A giggle; the purple eyes blink and she pulls back again.]

I'll be up on Deck in the gardens if anyone wants to say hello! Yay flowers!

[A few seconds later she literally appears a few feet from the Colour Garden, which she immediately crouches down to inspect.] Hello flowers!

No no, I always appear outside and knock. It was part of my deal. I only ever popped in on someone's private space once without an open invitation, and that was because he was about to use his powers cruelly on someone.

Our people have laws about our powers and how they are used.

[Now he looks surprised, in a good way. His smile is hopeful.] Rules? That sounds promising.

There are responsibilities to being a psychic. The Doctor who calls himself Smith understands. When we started helping Whitechapel, we FreakAngels made the law. Don't mess about in people's minds unless you've permission or there's a life at stake. Mental autonomy is a basic human right! And if mental privacy is, physical privacy should be too.

I like that. I think we'll be get along well, ma--Arkady.

[OOC: I think we need to put this poor baby to bed. I'm drowning. I want them to chat more, but I can barely keep my head above water at the moment.]
