OOC: Aeryn and weather
So it's summer in the South and this means I have to play something out with my girl, and since this will affect how she interacts with people for the moment, you might need to know.
If you're not familiar with Farscape canon, Aeryn's not human. There aren't a ton of species differences, but the big one is that Sebaceans don't have the gland that regulates heat. This means when it gets too hot, they essentially go into a twitching coma death called heat delirium. Right now Aeryn has no idea everyone else won't get this way. (Braca doesn't count and please don't mention him to her.) I've been checking weather.com pretty much every day and it looks like this weekend will be when she finally figures it out.
Things like air conditioning mean that she's not going to get too bad. For the most part, people will just see her being irritable and a little sweaty. Aeryn's probably not going to be that forthcoming, either, so while she probably has nothing against your character, know that having your character talk to her in the next couple days will probably get them snapped at without explanation. Maybe a lot. Also, this is pretty much going to keep up as long as it's warm. I'll keep her indoors most of the time, but know that this is something you might run into in dealing with her.
So. Just FYI. =)
