Questions for the mods.

So how prepared are the staff for patients with very real psychoses? Because when Farfarello wakes up, he's going to assume that A) he's in a real mental institution and B) he's there because Schwarz sold him out (presumably on Esset's orders). He's going to go APESHIT. (When he does discover that Schuldig and Crawford are at Landel's, as well, he will calm down considerably, knowing he hasn't been betrayed by them, at the least, but that first waking is gonna be baaa~d).

Will there only be the usual single nurse there to escort him, or will the institute be prepared and send in a couple orderlies as well? (Two human/dayshift orderlies ought to be enough, given the size of the room, to corner the quick little bastard and hold him down to be sedated).

Will any injuries he manages to inflict on the nurse and/or orderlies carry over to their nightshift/monster versions (ie, will there be a very po'ed nurse looking to skin Farf alive come nighttime)?

How much will they sedate him? Enough for him still to be able to walk, or will there be a wheelchair and some drooling involved? Hopefully he won't end up in solitary on his first day, but if he does, I can deal with that. ICA = ICC, right? ^^

Finally, will they clean up the room and replace any damaged furniture by the time Roland wakes up (hi, roomie!), or will the place still look like a bar brawl went down in there?

The staff are all trained professionals, and experienced in dealing with actual psychoses. In these cases, where a patient is going to be violent/argumentative/anything other than cooperative for whatever reason, an NPC mod will actually RP out the scene with you.

Injuries sustained during dayshift to the staff will not have any effect on the nightshift staff.

How much he's sedated depends on how the scene goes and how much of a fight he puts up. Generally, patients who are sedated can still walk and function. But if further sedation is needed, it will be used.

Again, it depends on how the scene goes and how much damage is actually done. I hope that helped!

Great!

We don't do any AIM logging here, but if it's going to be a long scene, we've done them where there's a separate post to play it out in. :D

We don't do that anymore, though, I think, because it clogged up the main comm too much. XD;

Thanks for explaning everything. <3

Yeah, I wasn't entirely sure if we were still doing that or not. So in that case, the scene would take place in the intercom intro post. Which there's not much worry of clogging, really, what with the limited number of characters posting anyway.

Pssh, why are you thanking me? It's what we do!

(Also, are you going to be around later? Got some stuff to run by you!)
