{6+1} - Teddles goes searching for Xenu, eventually finding himself in a secret passageway in an old house. He finds an ancient-looking book in near-perfect condition. Its covers are leather, and the pages appear to be papyrus. It appears to be written in some sort of runic script, yet he can understand it perfectly. One of the first pages details steps on "How to Summon the Being of Your Desires." Convenient.
Mysterious book found
Location: An old house

Location: Side of street, with military officialDragnar - Build a flying robot. Ignore the guard. ((What does this look like,
For Science!?))
{6} - Dragnar rushes past the guard, and begins tinkering with scrap metals. He builds a quadrupedal robot with radial symmetry. The triple-jointed legs each have a thruster on the bottom, and they connect to a sphere. On top of the sphere is a chair, with a panel for manual control. {Power:6} The robot is heavily armored, yet the thrusters are strong enough to get it airborne. It also has a
small gun on the underside of the main sphere, which can retract, and uses 5.56 bullets. {Size:1} It stands at about half the height of a man, and isn't large enough to do more then glide while Dragnar is sitting on it. {Functionality:3} It works. It's also voice activated and keyed to only listen to Dragnar's voice. {Fuel:2} It may walk with a nominal fuel cost, but the thrusters can and will burn through the tank in short order. It may only use diesel fuel. {Intelligence:1} It only has very basic AI, and understands only the most simple of verbal commands. The gun cannot be automatically targeted.
The guard seems to have called the military while Dragnar was busy. Three soldiers stand at the entrance to the scrapyard, while the guard is nowhere in sight. They are pointing their guns at the hapless engineer, shouting for him to come with them. He is a moderate distance away, and might or might not be able to escape unscathed.
