RW Use Mecha spiders wireless system to hack into drones. Mecha spider: Run to cover.

FW: Try to unlock the thing. Rats: Gnaw the metal bars!

[Repulsion]

((Oh wait. Remember my character sheet I posted here a while back? Since bowdown has been NPC'd, can I join in? Or does he have to die first?))

[HighEndNoob]

Meta: "FOR JANITORS!!!!!!!" Stab the drone robot with my mighty mop of doom, than jump into the elevator.

Fantasy: Get up, and get onto the roof.

[Gatleos]

((Oh wait. Remember my character sheet I posted here a while back? Since bowdown has been NPC'd, can I join in? Or does he have to die first?))

He was only NPC'd for the last turn, but someone may die pretty soon judging by the chaos going on. That reminds me, are
_DivideByZero_
and
RedWarrior0
still watching? because waiting a day for each when Repulsion is ready to join might be... inefficient.

[monk12]

I seem to be having difficulty with my limbs.

Meta: Get the drone off of me and drag myself to the elevator.

Fantasy: Eliminate guards, subdue mayor. Take two!

And I've gotta ask, what DID you think I was going to do on the roof?

[Gatleos]

And I've gotta ask, what DID you think I was going to do on the roof?

Pull a Santa.

[Frelock]

Meta:Use uncanny prediction to find the controls for these drones.  Attempt to shut them off.

Fantasy: Use my skill at haggling to distract the guards coming up the stairs and buy all their armor and weapons off of them.

[Gatleos]

Meta: Get the drone off of me and drag myself to the elevator.

You realize that you have two broken legs and have to roll a 6 to get anywhere, right? You're not going far unless someone drags you. You still have a plasma rifle, though...

Also: One action left, then on to the next turn!

[bowdown2q]

Meta: Attempt to aid Monk back to the elevator.

Fantasy: rush into the mayor's room; shank guard, help monk escape with mayor.

[Gatleos]

Monk, I've decided that terraphobia thing won't apply unless you're close to the ground. So, the second floor of the manor doesn't count.

RW Use Mecha spiders wireless system to hack into drones. Mecha spider: Run to cover.

(...) The mecha-spider gallops toward the elevator, dragging you backwards as you fumble with some circuitry on its back. Using the mecha-spider's wireless system that you just made up, you attempt to hack into the drones' AI and... it works. A lot. You receive a wireless signal from all the drones at once:
"NEW DIRECTIVE: PROTECT HUMANS, ATTACK ALL HOSTILE BEINGS IN VICINITY.;=-> 58 HOSTILES DETECTED."
Just as you reach the elevator, the drones stop firing at you and the others and start firing at each other! Robot parts are flying everywhere! It's a free-for-all!

Meta: "FOR JANITORS!!!!!!!" Stab the drone robot with my mighty mop of doom, than jump into the elevator.

(...) You manage to stab the attack drone with your mop and cause it to veer into another drone! You jump off at the last second and hit the ground hard. You can't make it to the elevator quite yet.

Meta: Get the drone off of me and drag myself to the elevator.

(...) You feel something snap in your leg while you try to move. OOOOWWWW

Meta:Use uncanny prediction to find the controls for these drones.  Attempt to shut them off.

(...) Even using all your intuitive skills, you can't seem to find a way to shut off the drones.

Meta: Attempt to aid Monk back to the elevator.

(...) You slip before you even get halfway to Monk. *sigh*
Shrapnel Everywhere!

• dermonster: (...) A few more pieces of shrapnel fly past and give you some light cuts, but you make it to the elevator.
• Frelock: (...) Explosions all around, you attempt to dodge the robo-shrapnel flying everywhere. A few give you minor cuts.
• monk12: (...) More jagged pieces of metal fly at you, but you manage to squirm your upper body out of the way.
• HighEndNoob: (...) You roll out of the way just as a piece of burning metal flies by you and sticks in the ground.
• bowdown2q: (...) Several pieces of shrapnel fly at your back, but you spring to your feet and leap toward Monk, deflecting pieces of flying metal with your bare hands! You don't get cut somehow.

Actions

FW: Try to unlock the thing. Rats: Gnaw the metal bars!

(...) You attempt to unlock the cell, but are unable to due to not having... like, anything to pick the lock with. You could use your tooth, I guess. Anyway, you order the rats to chew open the bars. (...) The rats attempt to chew through the METAL BARS, but for some reason aren't successful. Weird. You then remember that prison guards usually carry keys and you have half a dozen rats at your command.

Fantasy: Get up, and get onto the roof.

(...) Before any guards see you, you jump onto your feet and leap onto the roof. You'll be safe up here for now.

Fantasy: Eliminate guards, subdue mayor. Take two!

(...) You lash out at the warrior, bashing her across the face with your harpoon gun! She's out cold. You then run over to the mayor and do the same. (...) He's dazed, but not knocked out.

Fantasy: Use my skill at haggling to distract the guards coming up the stairs and buy all their armor and weapons off of them.

(...) You step in front of the stairs just as the guards come toward you, and hold up your sack of coins.
"Care to do any business?"
The guards quickly trade all of their gear for 177 gold. (...) By the time they realize what they just did, one of the thieves kicks one in the face and all three tumble down the stairs!

Fantasy: rush into the mayor's room; shank guard, help monk escape with mayor.

(...) You sprint down the hall toward the mayor's bedroom, (...) Shank a guard who was running the opposite way down the hallway, (...) utterly fail at knocking out the mayor, then grab him and Monk and leap through the northern window of the bedroom! You and Monk land on top of the mayor with a loud CRACK as heavy sheets of rain and shards of glass fall around you. Well, the mayor's knocked out now.
