Well, if he gets robo'd, your current character can be Legion.

I think it looks sort of like a cross between a geth and a crash test dummy. Mostly black robot muscle with some silvery metal visible. Has a blank head with a simple screen that can show emoticons.

It has cameras all over the body, wrists can rotate 360 degrees, secret hidden overdrive mode, probably a few other useful features that I'm forgetting. Should make a wiki page for it, can't believe no one has already.

That implies that there are multiple people inside. Need to get a few robots in one room and pop one of those Wish pills.

This is why wiki-ing the backlog of missions is worth it:

Quote from: mission 8
You open one door with another door for the sake of irony and proceed to batter and smash your way through the house, walking through walls, stomping accidently into the basement and generally blundering about with all the gentle grace of a colorectal exam being performed by a doctor with Parkinson's disease, using a medieval mace.

You find no one in the house or on the bottom of your feet when you're finished.

So if cuthukan becomes a robobody he would be like legion, including the multiple minds working together.

That could be a solution to the whole 'fighting over the one body' issue.
Have multiple robodies working seperately, with the controlling mind in the most central of them. Or just have some convoluted mass of robotic limbs, some controlled by one mind and some controlled by the others. That way everyone gets to do something each turn!

Or go the Saint route, controlling multiple QEC connected robobodies(would be rather expensive to set up, but might be the ultimate solution)

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

mostly this: Cthunkan's reign of terror in multiple bodies.

so far we have been working together, after Henk's initial panic subsided. Also, one of us could control cuthukan body while the rest control the robobody working in perfect unison since we are one mind joined together were we can coordinate via thought.

I had ideas of using that fact to coordinate multiple teams across a planet to take several objective simaltaniously. After all, using QEC-equpped bots and a hive mind, we have the perfect permanent mobile com!

My first thought was "engineered plague" but some exotic neutron bomb is a possibility as well.

I kinda had the same thought, but that's a damn scary plague if it drops people dead on the spot through their spacesuits. The fact that the colony was a vocal critic (if I recall correctly anyway) means exotic doom weapon is a little more possible, squeaky colony-wheel gets the bio-death-oil.

Could also be a sort of trap, or maybe there is an evaluation team on-site or something. I dunno.

"I am a forest, and a night of dark trees: but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses." ... I miss those days, Simus.

D'awwww. It's kind of strange how the asexual - and currently comatose - robo-lady has two men vying for her attention.
