Droning is the voluntary possession of one’s nervous system by another person or an artificial agent like BOB.  

Droning refers to the consensual possession of one’s nervous system either by another person or by an artificial agent such as a [[Task BOB]], [[Affirmation BOB]] or [[Destiny BOB]]. Once in a droned state, the host cedes control of their body, mind and nervous system. An open-ended droning is called a “[[Permadrone |permadroned]]” state. [[Humanistas]] believe that permadroning results in incurable [[anomics | anomie]] for its host, and is therefore an unforgivable act against oneself, and humanity.

Open-ending BOB droning with no planned end is called [permadroning], often associated with humans in [[anomic crisis]].

The first Destiny BOB, also known as [[The Chalice Study]] or [[Chyna Horchow]], permadroned its host [[Chalice Wong]] for a decade (known as “[[The Permadroned Years]]”) following the events of [[New Years Eve 2074]]. Due to Chyna’s popularity, permadroning using a BOB became an acceptable option for humans seeking to pepper their predictable [[Life path]] with surprising details and [[Subplots]].
