Calm Effect Nurses (CEs)
Day: Calm Effect nurses might be the ones most obviously sinister during the day, which is understandable considering that they are only deployed when a patient is seriously misbehaving. Calm in tense situations to the point that they seem incapable of fear, they usually work in conjunction with male orderlies, determining what level of sedatives to draw into the syringes while the latter holds a patient down. To their credit, the CEs seem to give patients a chance to calm down in fear from the sight of sedatives before they actually make any injections, but naturally, patients tend to only become more hysterical at the sight of a needle, giving the CEs an excuse to use heavier drugs.
Night: CEs are more of a rarity at night than they are even during the day, but their concentration in deeper, darker places is obvious from the noxious gas that fills the basement halls. CEs are the ones who control the strength of the stuff, and the heavy quality of the toxic fog as well as the fact that it’s impossible to breathe makes tracking them down extremely difficult. Too often they use the gas to mask their movements as they sneak up behind their prey, leaving patients in a headache-inducing daze when they wake up in a random room on the other side of the Institute.
It should be noted that CEs have the dubious honor of being the only nurse that remains fully human at night, though their quick reflexes and apparent ability to breathe in their poison might persuade a fog-blinded patient to think otherwise.
Possible Dropped Items: minor painkillers; (aspirin, ibuprofen), small bottle of chloroform, gas antidote pill; (lasts one night)
Rare Item: lightweight gas mask; (when worn, allows patient to breathe comfortably in any gassed area with full range of movement, hearing, and vision)
