Create a backup computer copy for of myself. Move said backup computer copy to an escape pod's interface/hard drive. In case a part of me gets destroyed or deleted.

As it turns out, the pen was in fact a poor choice for melee combat in comparison to the sword.
So I just started playing this game and I accidentally nuked the moon.

Inform the others the hard drive needs reconnected, then try to decode the barcode language.

Spade: Search the man for any useful things.
Evergod: Ask one of the humanoids nearby to carry me to the Main Computer, probobly on the bridge, or in engineering. Then run a full diagnostic on it, whence the problem is fully identified, ask someone to fix it for me.
Jacen: Create a backup computer copy for of myself. Move said backup computer copy to an escape pod's interface/hard drive. In case a part of me gets destroyed or deleted.
Dragnar: Inform the others the hard drive needs reconnected, then try to decode the barcode language.
Ochita: Explore the ship.
USEC_OFFICER(GM'd): Do what the AIs say.

Spade: 4

In the man's pocket, you find a small black rectangular device. It has a socket to plug in a data cable of some kind.

Evergod: 5

The android picks up your container and carries you to the bridge. All of the lights are dark and the consoles appear to have no power. It looks like the first thing you're going to need to do is get the engines started.

Jacen: 2

The escape pod uses ROM for long-term storage. There is nothing to copy yourself to. This is probably by design.

Draganr: 5

You tell everyone that the ship's computer's hard drive has been disconnected.
You then begin analyzing the barcode-like language. Ochita carries you around the ship as you do this.
You think you've figured out the pattern that means "Warning" or "Danger". You still might not know what exactly the danger is, but luckily the warning labels on most things come with a little pictograph incase you're a dumbass or you don't speak the language that the label is written in.

For example, this little gizmo has a warning label with a picture of a guy grabbing at his throat while dying. It isn't running.

Ochita: 5

Dragnar asks you to carry him around while you explore, which you do.
All the rooms except the cargo hold are completely dark. Since the engines aren't running, you suppose that the ship must be running on battery power.

There's also a few more dead guys in the engineering subsections. You can tell they're the engineering subsections because there's machines and consoles and stuff.

USEC_OFFICER: 5

You carry Evergod around.

WHY DID YOU HAVE ME KICK THEM WTF I DID NOT WANT TO BE SHOT AT.
I dunno, you guys have survived Thomas the tank engine, golems, zombies, nuclear explosions, laser whales, and being on the same team as ragnarock.  I don't think something as tame as a world ending rain of lava will even slow you guys down.

See, this is why I didn't want everyone to be an AI. You can't actually do anything besides manipulate computers. Unless you have a specific plan on how to help without the ability to manipulate your enviroment...

Alrighty then.

Electronically search for a robot other than the players.

Can't we manipulate electronics generally?

EDIT : Also, it makes it more fun this way. :)

I do this. I'll just need carried over to them to get access.

Not unless you're in them. Anything that's electronic and connected to your processor you can manipulate. It has to be turned on though, and this ship is running on emergency battery power.

EDIT:

Also, the thing Dragnar found is significant.

What danger, on a spaceship, would cause that kind of reaction from a person?


Dwarfguy: Search for cockroaches.
Ochita: Ask Dragnar to activate the ships generators.
Dragnar: I do this. I'll just need carried over to them to get access.
Jacen: Electronically search for a robot other than the players.
Evergod(GM'd): Wait for the power to return and then copy self onto computer.

Dwarfguy: 4

You find NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
What were you going to do with cockroaches?

Searching for cockroaches, you find a few canisters of thick dull green liquid. It appears to be similar to the stuff that the dead guys used for blood, but a darker color.

Ochita+Dragnar: 4&5

You roll on down to the engine room and examine the engines. There are a whole bunch of clear plastic tubes leading to the machines you think are the engines. They are empty.
You look at the labels on various bits of machinery to try to figure out how to start the engines.

All of the tubes lead from the engines to a large machine in front of them. Two hoses connect each engine to this machine, one connected to each side of the engine and the large machine.
The label on the large machine has a picture of a humanoid head with three little curved "action lines" next to it leading twoards a tube of green liquid. The liquid at the top of the tube is a lighter shade of green than the liquid at the bottom of the tube.
On each side of the machine, there is an image of a similar tube of green fluid. The fluid on in the tube is light green on one side of the machine and dark green on the other. The engines have similar markings, which match up.
There is also another pair of larger hozes leading up into the ceiling. All of the hozes are empty.
There are two valves on the machine, one showing a tube of light green fluid and a down arrow, another showing a tube of dark green fluid and an up arrow.

Jacen: 3

These "DualSecure" containers have no sensors besides a camera and microphone. There is no way to scan for anything besides having someone carry you around and look for it.

Evergod:

The power still does not come on.

Search for writing implements. If found, draw smily face on canister, and throw it bursting through a wall.
