There's a fine line here.

He cannot indeed be a robot. Any RPing of metal bodies, circuts, anything not a humanoid cantrian, is indeed a CRB.

He CAN however, be a delusional freak nutjob that *thinks* he's a robot, and behaves and responds as one.

But things like "*moves his hand over to the iron sheild and tapping it, hearing a satisfying ping*" are CRB, since his hand can't ping. He can think her hears a ping, but without communicating that, no one else will know that he thinks he hears a ping ...

The rp presented from him so far is of a lunatic, but not CRB YET, but surely headed that way. You might give him a friendly notice by in game whisper to read this thread and adjust accordingly, and keep us updated if he does CRB.

I had a character that was a dog, that I had to change to a character that thought he was a dog. It was a bummer, since I'd been intent on RPing just a dog, not talking, no nothing, but I had no choice. :cry:

But how would a Cantrian even know what a robot/android was, let alone a newspawn? It's be like talking about spaceships or something.

Oh well...if he doesn't shut up when people tell him he's crazy just drag him away somewhere for 'safekeeping'.

Maybe he thinks its like being Kworian. Android could be a person from Androidia.

Doesn't matter, unless he uses it in the wrong context.

Yes, long long ago. Had a nice man feeding me asparagus, before he keeled over.

People wrote about robots and spaceships and stuff in the real world long before they were invented. Why can't they do the same in cantr?

Because they can't be invented and probably never will.
