Being a robot at present, how human do I look exactly? Possibly different enough so I won’t be hunted?

In any case, have rifle and razor at the ready. If nothing happens, I’ll check the carnage, and see if the robot hit the lizard at all.

Also, this should be the door to the control center, correct?

EEED turns to his sole companion.

"Hello, fellow employee! What is your designation? It seems we ought to get to know each other now that we have been left behind by our fellow staff."

Soap up the rest of the floor in the room! Also, examine Ed for possible needed care.

"Poor Wilfred. All of OMNI's forces and all of OMNI's men couldn't put him back together again. Fortunately for him, OMNITECH has beings in its ranks that are far superior to humans. And now he will be one of them too!"

Keep providing motion sensor data to my teammates (and Omniscience data, if I manage to spot any of the lizards and tag them).

If I have time, work on putting Wilfred inside that superior robotic body.


"Oh, and if one of you could light a match under a smoke detector or something to trigger the sprinkler system, that would be really helpful."

Light one of my flares and hold it near a smoke detector, and stay with the group and be ready to shoot things if needed.

Try again to find a sensor/mode on my scanner that would help in detecting these things, even if one is sitting still.

If any crocs are revealed near us this turn (eg. by the sprinklers or something else), goop 'em.   


"Ok, so, there were 6 of those cloning tubes in the lab, and 1 of them got smashed. Pathos picked up 3 motion sensor signals, meaning the remaining 2 are either outside of the range of the scanner, or 2 of these assholes are sitting still and hiding somewhere, no doubt in a position ready to ambush us. Maybe even on a ceiling or above a doorway! So stay on your toes. I'd advise against going out with just a small group but it's a little late for that at this point. Honestly, I'm getting the feeling that we are just clearing the way for our target at this point, bah.

Oh, and I have a bunch of stimulants left, so if any of you fleshies want one feel free to ask, they can save your butt in a pinch."

"Edward. Now do you mind? I'm a bit busy."
Edward continues typing meaningless things into his computer.

Too bad the team doesn't have a reptilian ambassador of good will, or an ambhibian self-propelled rtillary piece with which to dissuade these monsters from their deadly course. Well, anyway, this pool is pretty wet, but that dark room had BIG SNACK, so Bob is conflicted asto whether to remain or to wander back to the sensory depprivation chamber and illusory fish dispensory.

[2] Ed attempts to get up and run to catch up with the people who have left, but instead immediately slips and falls face first on the ground.

"Yeah, I coated everything around here with soapy water. Its pretty slippery." EEED says, casually poking Ed with the handle of his mop. "You ok? Need a spine adjustment?"

Burt lifts a flare to the nearest spoke detecting panel and waits. After a good 30 seconds water sprayer nozzles extend from the ceiling and begin spraying a constant deluge of water.

[9] Pathos manages to get into the OMNI consciousness containment servers and downloads Wilfred's data into his bodyguard robot.

[6] Yagyu activates motion sensing mode. It should be able to pick up these things even if they're invisible and produce no appreciable heat. It should be perfect so long as no one does anything like fill the entire level with movement.

Spoiler: JiBot (click to show/hide)
Ji considers her appearance. That of a badly abused anime sex doll with cloned human limbs crudely grafted onto it. She wonders if it will pass for human. [5] Its humanoid and at least a few parts are still organic so there's a good chance she will. At least to assassin lizards. 

She checks the area but there's no sign of blood or harm to the lizard. Lots of bullet impacts in the area, but no blood.

She looks and yes, the control room is right there.

Well that's bad, Larry will see if he can use bad juju to find where it went. All the while keeping his punch ghost primmed and ready to punch at the first sign of reptiles.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
[8] Larry considers the situation for a long moment. He then lifts one finger into the air and summons forth WICKED WORLD with a clap. The giant pale hand reaches out of nothing and grabs hold of nothing. It drags the nothing back and, for an instant, some members of the party can vaguely make out the form of a spectral Wilfred caught in its grip.  Larry speaks with the nothing for a few moments and then gestures again, releasing it.

"According to the mortal imprint of the late Wilfred, the first lizard is down the hall to our left, about 40 feet away, clinging to the ceiling and waiting for us. Though as soon as all this water started pouring down it got spooked and scampered off. There's a good chance that, as long as we stay in the water and don't detour into any rooms or seperate, they might not attack us. They're ambush based after all; even if they could stand and fight they likely won't want to."


The sprinkler system has been activated. Motion sensing is now useless thanks to the fact that water is, in fact, moving and there's a lot of it right now. Any operational computers are now fried since they don't, in reality, enjoy being drenched. We will assume (even though no one actually took the action to reunite with the three guys by Wilfred's body) that the group has reconnected. Except of course for EEED and Ed, who are still in the tube room. And Bob, who is bobbing.

Time to follow his own advice, Larry will search for the next sector (but only if a sizable portion of the group is going with him), staying clear of any detours and making sure to use WICKED WORLD to appear big, mean and generally not worth the trouble compared to his smaller, weaker, easier to chew human shields fellow co-workers.

Also Larry will put on the Isolation Suit and activate all isolationery features, he's pretty sure he's immune but if the target went mad due to psych feedback he's also pretty sure his pay would get docked.

"You are continuing to talk and breathe, which means there is a 46% chance you are marginally okay! The second half of your inquiry, however, is a false question - there is always a need for a spinal adjustment!"

Adjust spine (in a beneficial manner) and then see if I can't use my automop in reverse or something to suck up the soapy water, allowing Ed and me to make our way to the others in an isolated puddle of dryness surrounded by soap! Y'know, dry in front, soap up behind.

So can we assume this sector is 'secure' as long as we stay in the water and aren't alone, also for any return trip?

Assuming the group moves along with me, go search for the door to the next sector. Don't open it yet and don't let others open it yet either, especially not with any destructive methods, we don't want to accidentally paste our target and make this all for nothing.

Oh, and if needed, quickly fashion some sort of strap of backpack or something so robo!Wil can drag his old inventory along with him. Or just put that stuff in the hammer space until we figure out what to do with it.


"Next sector is where our target was last spotted. Let's make sure we are all ready and have all the sensory deprivation crap up and running before we open that door. Wil, don't forget your new body probably still needs to activate reduced framerate and text-to-speech stuff and whatnot. "

Run diagnostics on self.  What are Wilfred's current stats?  Current life?  Current damage dice?  Current available weapons?

Enable 5 FPS mode, and speech to text.  Disable hearing.  Also disable hearing, smell, and taste, if any of those are actually senses possessed by this bot.

Follow team otherwise.
