Code:
mob
    verb
        Start_Battle()
            src.Battle()
mob
    proc
        Battle(mob/M in oview(1))
            switch(input("Battle") in list ("Attack", "Item", "Run"))
                if("Attack")
                    M.hp -= src.str
                    src << "You hit [M] for [src.str] damage!"
                    M.Death()


Problem description: I keep getting this error: runtime error:
Cannot read null.hp
proc name: Battle (/mob/proc/Battle)

I don't believe you can give that sort of argument to a proc, only in verbs can you do that.

You should do this:

 mob
    verb
        Start_Battle(mob/M in oview(1))
            src.Battle(M)
 mob
    proc
        Battle(var/mob/M)
            switch(input("Battle") in list ("Attack", "Item", "Run"))
                if("Attack")
                    M.hp -= src.str
                    src << "You hit [M] for [src.str] damage!"
                    M.Death()


I think that should work.
