Choreomania
Over a period of (5 + 1d100) months, the
character experiences a recurrent and intense obsession
to dance (see Chap. 8: Skills). This causes
significant distress or impairment in social, occupational,
or other important areas of functioning.
Whenever a character is afflicted with
choreomania and it is possible to dance at the moment,
a Drive check at TH 17 must be passed or the
character begins to dance and will dance until exhausted
or sufficiently interrupted. While dancing,
the character will ignore their surroundings.
Dependent Personality Disorder
This disorder involves severe and disabling
emotional dependency on others. Characters with
this disorder have difficulty making decisions without
a great deal of advice and reassurance from others.
They urgently seek another relationship when
a close relationship ends. Alone, they feel uncomfortable.
Characters afflicted with this disorder must
pass a Drive Check at TH 20 for them to be alone.
If failed, they will seek companionship, no matter
how annoying their behavior.
Coprophilia
Over a period of (5 + 1d100) months, the
character experiences recurrent and intense sexually
arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving
sexual attraction with defecation, either giving
or receiving. This causes significant distress or
impairment in social, occupational, or other important
areas of functioning.
Due to this mental illness, the Debauchery
(see Chap. 6: Sociality) of this character increases by
97. Whenever a character is afflicted with coprophilia
and involved in a sexual activity or near defecation,
they must pass a Drive check at TH 10 or
engage in socially unacceptable sexual behavior regarding
defecation.
Dementia
This mental illness is characterized by impaired
memory and difficulties in functions such as
speaking, abstract thinking, and the ability to identify
familiar objects.
Characters afflicted with dementia lose (30
+ 2d10)% of their sub-abilities of Rhetorical Charisma,
Analytic Intelligence, and Reflection. Whenever
they must identify familiar objects, they must
pass a Reflection Check at TH 20 or swear they have
never seen it before. Roll 1d8 to determine the number
of symptoms. Next, determine the actual symptoms
from the following list: (1) recent memory loss,
(2) difficulty performing familiar tasks, (3) problems
with language, (4) time and place disorientation, (5)
poor judgment, (6) misplacing things, (7) mood
swings, and (8) a (30 + 2d10)% loss of Drive.
Depersonalization Disorder
These characters experience an unwelcome
sense of detachment from their own bodies. They
may feel as though they are floating above the
ground, outside observers of their own mental or
physical processes. Other symptoms may include a
feeling that they or other characters are mechanical
or unreal, a feeling of being in a dream, a feeling
that their hands or feet are larger or smaller than
usual, and a deadening of emotional responses.
These symptoms are chronic and severe enough to
impede normal functioning in a social, school, or
work environment. Depersonalization disorder is a
relatively rare syndrome thought to result from severe
stress.
Characters afflicted with this disorder must
pass a Common Sense Check at TH 16 daily, or at a
random time during the day {at the 1d12 hour of
either A.M. [1-3] or P.M. [4-6], at the minute of [(1d6
- 1) and 1d10 (which creates a range of 01-59)]}, an
episode will occur that involves (01-20%) the feeling
of floating, being an observer outside one’s body
(21-40%), being sure that other characters are mechanical
(41-60%), being sure that other characters
are not real (61-80%), feeling like they are in a dream
(81-85%), sure that their hands are larger than usual
(86%), sure that their feet are larger than usual (87%),
sure that their hands are smaller than usual (88%),
sure that their feet are smaller than usual (89%), or
(90-100%) they feel a deadening of emotional responses.
The episode will last for 1d100 minutes.
Finally, those afflicted experience a loss of 2d20
points from their Sanguine, Choleric, and Melancholic
Temperaments.
