A hadozee wearing sunglasses appears on the deck of the tavern. They appear bewildered but quickly pull a bunch of star charts out of their pocket and start consulting them to figure out where they are.
*Idk how often I’ll be able to post but this is my character 😊*
Back on the deck, a tiefling appears. "HaaaayAH." He delivers a stunning blow on the railing, cracking it. Standing there, he just stares for a few moments into Wildspace. Then... "Ahhhhh! My hand! My hand! Owowowowowowowowowowowowow! Stupid mind flayers!" Kicking the wood, he yelps and dances the tarantella. "Where in Ilmater's hairy butt am I?" The tiefling has curly ram's horns, and is furry, with long, brown hair all over his body. He has simple clothes and a rich cloak. (If anybody here is proficient in Int History, or has some connection to the Abyss, you will recognise him as a teifling of Baphomet)
"Ah, new guests!" Says a reasonably tall dwarf. He shakes both your hands vigorously. He's wearing a black and white Tuxedo that doesn't really go with his red hair and long beard, which almost touches the floor. "This, my friends, is the Twinkling stars Tavern, the greatest vessel to ever sail the seven stars."
He steps back to let you two see the full extent of the deck you just arrived on. You're standing on what looks like wood, but because of its shine you suspect it's something else. The walls are basically just massive windows with pastel blue metal bars strengthening them at 10m intervals, and the roof is tinted glass, but the stars still shine through it. At one end of the deck there is a fancy looking flight of stairs. In the middle of the deck there's a fountain shaped like a planet, with little devices that look like flying boats going round it, and at the far end of the deck there is a little raise in the floor and on top of this raise is a steering wheel that looks like one that you might see on a ship back where you come from. "This vessel was the pride and joy of the F.L.U.F.F. Fleet," says the dwarf "But after a tiny accident we had a few hundred years back, it has become a floating tavern sailing through the cosmos."
"Any way, my names Ralffolonos exserbieus, but everyone just calls me Ralf. What can I call you?"
The hadozee’s eyes widen behind their sunglasses. “Wow! That’s amazing. You can call me Yaz cause I’m named for the lost hadozee homeworld of Yazir, so Yaz for short.”

"Nice to meet you Yaz." replies Ralf. "Is there anywhere in particular that you would like to go on this here vessel, or should I just take you to your quarters?"

I want you to know. You are going to lose. You are going to lose badly. You’re going to lose badly and it’s going to be awesome.
btw, not necessarily for the newcomers, but everyone else is beginning to feel tired, as it's been a long day after having a normal day, and being teleported here.

“Just my quarters sounds great.”
"Of course." Ralf then turns to look at the monk. "And what about you, mister... ?"

"But... But... My friends! They need ME!!!" The tiefling wails, looking very distressed, big, goat-like eyes rolling. "Tell me how to get back, or I will Quivering Palm you, like this, hiYAH!" He strikes at empty air, his fists making the snap of breaking the sound barrier.

"Well, we're going to stop in at the y-86 asteroid, in a few days, so you could maybe get off there and find your way back to your planet. and I wouldn't try hitting me if I were you." A little device that looks like a high-tech crossbow pokes out of the roof and points at you, and a magical shield appears around Ralf.

*Fun fact: TSR, the predecessor company to WOTC, created a sci-fi RPG called Star Frontiers in the 1980s with alien races called Dralasites, Vrusk and Yazirians. Today’s spelljamming races plasmoids, thri-kreen and hadozee are heavily based on these old races. This is where the references to the lost hadozee homeworld of Yazir and a spelljamming ship named the Vrusk controlled by the thri-kreen faction leader in the Light of Xaryxis adventure come from.*

A little device that looks like a high-tech crossbow pokes out of the roof and points at you, and a magical shield appears around Ralf.
"Not if I can do THIS!" And the teifling will turn invisible and say. "Oh, by the way, my name is Yagrea..." and Yagrea will tap Ralf on the noggin and run into the spaceship, curiosity overcoming common sense.

You try to tap Ralf, but your hand hits a red hot shield, and you take 5 fire damage (Not that it matters, as no one has any hit point at the moment) Which direction is Yagrea heading for? up the stairs, towards the wheel, or down the passage next to the stairs that leads to the swimming pools and bars?

Zalius is in a bar, looking at his map while trying out every drink. He looks up when he notices the new arrivals.
*Yaz waves to him and tips his sunglasses a little.*
Chan looks up from a small, leatherbound book he had been studying. He seems surprised. "Greetings! Who might you be? And did you also get teleported here against your will?"
