Male Nurses (Orderlies)

Oct 01, 2006 06:25

Day: Depending on the physical strength of a patient, a character might see a male nurse all the time or not at all. The adult male patients of C-Hall are the best candidates for being escorted by them, but if members of any other denomination prove troublesome, they'll soon find themselves with a large, sturdily-built man in white at either shoulder. The orderlies themselves are intimidating in stature if not demeanor, and seem kind and apologetic even when suppressing a patient with the brute force they were hired for. Of all the nurses, they seem the most genuinely oblivious of what's going on behind Landel's, and it's been rumored that one disclosed to patients how he and his peers tended to have strange dreams at night...

Night: Orderlies are a rare breed at night, a fact to be thankful for since they are the most dangerous nurses of all. A patient would be wise to run away at the tell-tale sound of their heavy footsteps and rattling chains, and wiser still to hide from the monsters that tend to build up an incredible amount of momentum when charging. Like mythical giants from ages long gone, male nurses are huge and incredibly strong, and their only detrimental attribute seems to be their slow reaction time in both body and mind. Between their tough hide and their bulging muscles, (the only two recognizable features, as they use the dark to mask more detailed points of their large bodies), they are by far the hardest nighttime employee to beat. However, their only discernible weakness lies in the fact that they do not act on their own: Much like the daytime, a CE will always accompany a male nurse, whose unique humanity among nighttime employees makes them ideal for shouting out orders to the hulking beasts. Interestingly, it's common knowledge that, once unprotected and unmasked, a CE is among the easiest of nurses to kill...

Male nurses are the hellish beings that escort patients to special counseling.

Possible Dropped Items: vials of red fluid, vials of blue fluid, vials of black fluid; all three are marked: "two uses; to be administered by injection"

Rare Item: vial of clear fluid; marked: "one use; to be administered by injection; only effective under special circumstances"

Mod Note: Each of these has a different effect on patients, all of which are extremely potent. It is at your character's discretion whether or not he/she uses it, but once he/she does, you must contact a mod immediately, and we will fill you in on how your character will be affected by it. The effects will always disappear when your character wakes up in his/her room, so be aware that using your vial at the beginning of night shift will give you more time with its effects than if you use it later on. (Would more time be a good thing or a bad thing? You'll have to find that out for yourself.)

Mod-to-Other-Mods-Note: Detailed information concerning the effects of the vials can be found as a private entry in this journal following this one.
