Supervillainy 101

Been a little busy lately, but im back and ready to post my XP spending (finally)

Heres my proposed upgrades for my 2 xp

Prototype Disposable Robot design, Mk 001 -> Spyder Villain Chassis Mk 0001.
Mostly just eliminating a weakness instead of improving defence. The dodgy wiring of the original design is gone, so now Spyder can enjoy his robotic benefits to the full, along with some improved defence. (ooc: just spending it to remove the weakness i started with)

Prototype Kinetic Energy Blaster Mk 001 -> Kinetic Cannon Mk 001.
A seperate setting allowing a more powerful shot or the same non-lethal power as before.

It seemed his help was not required. Hopefully Eppie and Maw would not run into any problems.

"Very well, the problem will be dealt with shortly"

He headed down the path his other teammates had taken, emiting a slight mechanical sound as his servos increased to max speed. He entered the control room to see a large piller of flesh and machinery rise up and create more of the strange creatures. The Korean Sister waded in soon after that as Fox-Ally suggested aiming at the creatures robotic eye. It seemed they had it under control for the moment but if the pillar could creature more of its spawn then they would most likely be overrun. He had to act fast.

Spyder allowed himself a moment of thought as his legs locked in place and his turret charged up to its highest damage setting with a slight humming sound. This inventer, Pulp, who had made these creatures had some simularities to his own creator. Spyder wondered if they were intelligent and shackled to his control, or just had very simple brains. He had no wish to destroy them, but they had attacked his allies and showed no signs of reason, so steps had to be taken.

[Turret Ready]

Either way, its time to help his team. Fire

The golden glowing shot errupted from the cannon, heading straight for the creatures eye.

My post coming up tomorrow.

First creature down, and only minor injuries from his teammates to show for it, partial success. Now though it was time to finish the job, Korean Ally had grabbed Fox Ally and dragged them down a corridor in pursuit of the creature. His combat protocols still held sway, directing him to follow the creature immediately to press the advantage. He skittered past Eppie who was pushing herself up from the floor, blood seeping from a gut wound. Such things were unimportant to the dir--?'[0-. Wait. [Combat Protocols deactivating]

It seemed that his combat protocols were not designed for empathy in mind. He would have to do without them.

Spyder swiveled his optic sensors around the room, for the first time truly seeing what had occurred, rather than acting on programming. He approached Eppie, noticing a slight weakness in her stance.

"Eppie and Maw, would you like assistance in reaching the creature. My chassis will be able to support you, and I imagine it would be faster than walking with your current injury"

He awaited his allies answer, ready to head down the corridor after the Invisible Sister and Fox Blade.

[Movement detected. Combat Protocols in full effect. Kinetic Energy Blaster ready to fire]

Spyder had been waiting patiently for the creatures to reveal themselves, and thus they had! Now it was time to show his new teammates what he could do. After this they would be glad to have him around, unlike his pathetic creator.
The ninja had worsened things almost immediately by creating a second creature, though Eppie and The Invincible Sister had managed to set up the perfect opening, despite the strange effect the creatures seemed to be having on some of the biological members of the group.

Still, no time for overthinking. It all came down to a single fact, that although he was a friendly droid most of the time, interested in socializing and becoming a respected villain, he had been designed for one singular purpose.

To [FIRE!]

The first golden energy bolt slammed into the creature Maw was holding, just as it was slipping free. Spyder didn't know exactly how his gun worked, but having the formidable power of a (miniaturized) nuclear power generator (partially) converted into kinetic force couldn't be pleasant to experience. It showed as the creature let out another shriek and was thrown against a wall. The second shot came exactly 2.0 seconds later, shoving it back into the wall as it tried to regain its bearings. Spyder could keep this up all day if he needed too, though he didn't know if the creature could adapt to his attack or not, best to finish it quickly. He turned on his speakers and shouted out.

"I have it stunned for now, act quick my fellow villains!"

@Alphakoka

Oops, sorry. I think I planned to reply and forgot and assumed I had. But yeah that sounds cool. Always useful to have someone who can do some repairs.

I have no idea at all how a suggestion power should work on an AI. Give a hacking warning and enter safe mode?

The Uncanny Teen Titans

ALso interested.

Spyder was cautious now. Fear was the wrong word, as his combat programming ensured he knew that fear led to poor decisions and lower survival rates. Still, he had no desire to be destroyed here, after all, who would look after Lucky?

He followed the rest of his team down the corridor, powering up the [Kinetic Energy Blaster] as he did so. It sprung to life with a small hum and a golden glow. Entering the room shortly after Ally Eppie/Maw he took center position, setting himself in [Turret] stance, legs spread widly apart. The barrel of the Blaster began to slowly rotate, providing Spyder with a view of all the rooms entrances. No movement spotted so far, but he would be ready.

"A warning to my colleagues, my creator never figured out the science behind cold fusion, so I run on Nuclear Fission. Should my core be breached I recommend you retreat immediately. If possible retrieve my head."

There, now they all knew. He hoped they wouldn't judge him for it, he had heard that some of the fancy cold fusion and extra-dimensionally powered machines would sometimes look down on a bot with such a primitive power source. He wasn't too worried though, his new teammates seemed too nice for that.
