For anyone still looking to join this RP, refer to the past coupla posts.

Regarding the current situation with the robot drone in the RP IC: I'm gonna lay down some basic rules so that you can proceed with the RP without needing to wait for a reaction from me after each post.

You are allowed to hit, strike, and damage the drone in your own posts.  This is meant to be the first combat encounter, so it shouldn't be terribly difficult to defeat - if the characters team up against the drone.  But for the first post or so, only one of your characters will be involved, and the others may only react if they become aware of the disturbance.

I have not specified exactly whose room just got invaded by a multi-legged night visitor.  This was on purpose; whoever wishes to may have the drone attack their character first, then everyone else will follow suit with their reactions.  I may even allow whoever else posts next to put the drone in Nora's room, if that is desired; Nora will naturally scream her head off for help if this occurs, though Boxcar will already be protecting her from the drone (and will likely be the reason she wasn't suckerpunched to begin with).  He's ill-equipped to defeat the drone on his own, though, so hopefully your characters will be rushing to join the fray!  Then you can just react to that instead.

The drone has no long-range attacks, it is melee-only and makes use of small, sharp, pointed legs to stab or slice with.  While individual strikes may not do more than draw a little blood, if it manages to get a critical hit in, or if it is allowed to make multiple attacks, it will certainly cause a lot of pain and open a lot of wounds.  The drone is actually a series of individual robots magnetized together, and if struck with enough force at any of its "joints" will cause it to separate into different segments.  And the more it separates, the more characters it can engage simultaneously, as each orb can function independently of all the others!  However, it is only moderately intelligent, and could likely be tricked into a trap or teamed up on, and each individual sphere is only lightly armored.

Make it a fun but short battle; remember that the lodgers aren't yet a team, so they don't automatically know what other members of the group will do.  This is a chance for roleplaying out the limitations of trying to use superpowers without having time to coordinate ahead of time or even get to know each other well enough to get an idea of what each of you can do.  Try to leave enough drone segments for everyone to get a part of the fight in; once everyone has had a chance to post at least once for the fight, then anyone can end it after that (though if you are having lots of fun with the fighting and end up taking more posts, this is okay as well).

Get ready!  FIGHT!
