"What are you doing?" "Scannin..."

[staresat]

Who: Shockwave's Drones & You! (and possibly him in person)
What: A swarm of drones begins to investigate what they can of the Haven
Where: Everywhere!
When: Last Night
Warnings: PROBES

The relative peace in the Haven might find itself mildly disturbed this day. 

From Liege's quadrant, the disturbance would appear as a small black cloud before immediately dispersing across the haven. It was a swarm, to be more precise. A swarm a small drones. Only about three feet in width and roughly oblong in shape, the robotic drones began to wander into every crevice and hole they could find themselves in.

Aside from the swarm that emerged from their point of origin, the drones never interacted with each other. Individually, each probe tirelessly and methodically scanned what they could of the Haven's temples and the wide expanses between them. Any open doors or windows may lure one of the small machines in to investigate.

But, save for their rather nosy nature, the drones appeared to be totally harmless. They could be handled (to an extent) and will only flee from detectable danger. But, unless you're particularly offended by their scanning, their stay shouldn't drag out for too long. A brief scan and a few kicked over items later, and it's gone.

But of course - what would be the fun in leaving them alone? Someone's behind the use of these drones. And the motive of said person has yet to be revealed.

[Ravage was hanging around Nexus's temple when he saw a drone. At first he just waved at it, but the way it hovered there made for quite a temptation. He soon crouched down, his tail twitched as he prepared, and soon he sprung in a playful pounce at the droid.]

whoops, sorry for taking forever and a half

[staresat]

[With it having been brushing quietly past any Acolytes without to much as a word, it was unsuspecting as Ravage began to sneak up on it.]

[The tiny machine is easily forced into the ground as it's pounced on, though it's not destroyed. Hardy little thing, isnt it? It's going to be attempting to accelerate right out of your paws, Ravage.]

It's okay, I've been slow lately too.

[im_wavin]

[Oh this just keeps getting better and better. The fact that it's trying to get away, has turned it into the best toy in Ravage's optics.]

[Ravage holds the drone down a little longer before lifting his paws to let it go. He'll give it a three second head start before chasing after it, laughing gleefully.]

[staresat]

[NOPE. The drone levitates up to the top of the ceiling to escape. It's programming wasn't particularly complex, but it knew how to evade attack if it isn't immediately captured.]

[Try to get it now. It's just going to perch up near the top until it's assailant get's bored.]

[im_wavin]

Awwww.... [DISAPPOINTMENT! Ravage was hoping it would play a little longer. He will just be sitting under it looking up and being patient.]

[staresat]

...



[It's just going to start tentatively scanning the surrounding area, keeping to the same height.]

[im_wavin]

[And Ravage still waits. Until he gets an idea! He goes to hide somewhere so that it can come do and he can pounce on it again.]
