Code:

mob/var/list/drop = list() //List that holds Monster's Drop
mob
    proc
        SaveChar()
            if(src.client)
                var/savefile/F = new("players/[src.key].sav")
                src.V = src.verbs
                src.xco = src.x
                src.yco = src.y
                src.zco = src.z
                src.Write(F)
                src<<"<b><i>Your Game has been Saved!"


Problem description: Line 16 is "src.Write(F)"

runtime error: Failed to write variable drop to savefile players/Asterr.sav. The value being written was /list (/list).

What's being added to 'drop'? If it shouldn't be saved, define it as a tmp variable instead.
mob/var/tmp/list/drop = list()

Okay that worked but now it's having a problem with var "V" where Verbs are suppose to go, is there something wrong with Save?

Try setting V to src.verbs.Copy() and see if that works. There might be something special internally about the object in src.verbs, so it'd be better to make a copy of it. Unfortunately, I don't actually know the exact reason you've been getting either of these errors, as calling datum.Write(savefile) is a proper way of saving an object's variables to a savefile.

Like:
src.V = src.verbs.Copy()
?

This actually shows up even if I take out both lists and goes straight to my verbs...
