This event can only be rped with TWO or more people. One of the characters begins to lose their mind, convinced that a someone is talking to them, telling them there is safety beyond the fog. They begin to drag the other character that direction as well.
The other character now has the option to fight back with that player, or accept. If they follow, the first player will continue to talk about this imaginary person talking to them (make one up, base it on a person close to that character) has promised them an increasingly more ludicrous count of promises (you can make these up). They get stranger and more unrealistic.
This rp continues until the second character being dragged realizes something is up with the first character. They can choose to roll 1d6 to drag the character back towards the hospital away from the thickness of the fog. If the roll even, they succeed, if they roll odd, the other character continues to drag them. Continue this RP until the second character has rolled 1d6 and rolled even successfully to drag the other player out.

After having gotten himself somewhat under control, Mia soon found Third and approached him warily, not knowing if he was real or if he was fake, or if he even thought the things that fake!Third was telling him, or if fake!Third had been lying or not.
Mia's head was full of contradictions and what-ifs.
"Third!" Mia called, stepping up to right beside his friend and staring directly at his face, idly scratching his own wrist that had begun to itch. He was so itchy lately and it was driving him crazy.
Well. Crazier.
Mia looked in... not so good shape. His face had dried blood on his cheeks, and his hands were still stained with blood from... god knew what - not to mention the caked blood under his fingernails. An ear on his llama hat was bent and fraying, and one of the lenses for his goggles was cracked. But, for the first time, he looked like he had hope. Genuine hope showed in those eyes of his, and he was almost bursting at the seams to tell Third the good news.
Satisfied that Third's skin wasn't rotting like the fake!Third he'd been 'talking' to earlier, Mia nodded and began to speak. "Third! Someone told me that beyond the fog is safe. We can leave here! No more zombies, no more killing. We can leave! He said so!"
Mia didn't mention who this He was, but he genuinely believed that there was a way out of this - all they had to do was go beyond the fog.

Character's Name: Mad Mia Character's Faction: Prison Character's Journal Link:Hey! Listen! Over Here! Character's survival stats:Mad MiaView Coins: 63 BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: Wiry thin with wild chin-length blond hair, and blue eyes. For clothing, he has goggles resting on his head over a llama hat. two scarves, a red shirt with a black vest, green pants, and brown boots. He looks... not quite all there in the head.
He'd already seen a full-blown hallucination of the only friend he'd managed to salvage in this disaster....dead and going to rot on the ground, only to realize that now Third himself was a pocketful of crazy and had imagined the whole thing.
This didn't help the paranoia he was currently experiencing. This fog was sending them to hell in a hand-basket.
Getting out of it sounded nice, but the promise of some sweet paradise beyond sounded even kookier.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoaaaaaaaaaaaa, Mia...." He took a deep breath, latching onto the other with both hands, grasping the other man's shoulders with almost desperate determination. "Look ok....whoa. Who said that. Because let me tell you...that there is some crazy s**t out here. This fog has me seeing things...." A deeeeeep breath there for the crazed klepto. Yep, stay calm, Third. "Mia...Mia who told you and why is this a good idea?"
Not that he didn't like seeing his blond friend all perky and excited but there was NOTHING to be trusted out here in this debacle.
Nothing.
Except the fact that he liked Mia....and Mia was probably more crazy than he was.
Which should be some sort of reference point....right?
Ah feck.

Reaching up to take Third's hands, he grasped them very carefully and gently, his smile dissipating as he stared forward at Third.
"Do you trust me?" Mia looked about to be hurt, his fingers tapping the back of Third's hand. His lips twisted into a frown.
"I saw you earlier and you said really awful things to me but then you started to rot away and then I knew it wasn't you but thinking about it made me sad and I wonder if you really thought the same things or not." He took a breath, his eyes steady with Third's as he squeezed tighter.
"Do you really find me annoying or that I'm too crazy or that I talk too much or talk at all, or do you just follow me around because you think I'm entertaining?" The blond's eyes started to shine, and a tear fell out of the corner of his eyes as he bit his lower lip, trembling.
"I want out of here and the nice man said that we could go outside of the fog and we'd be safe but I don't know if you really like me or if you're just putting up with me because I'm entertaining." Mia's head tilted. "... and I need some rubber bands."
Yeah, Mia had been promised some salty things, so it was most likely a good idea for Third to get him the hell back to where it was safe.
Well. Safer.

For clothing, he has goggles resting on his head over a llama hat. two scarves, a red shirt with a black vest, green pants, and brown boots. He looks... not quite all there in the head.
Third blinked...staring long and hard at Mia. "Look, ok. I...trust you. I trust that you and me are buds, I trust that. I trust that you're trying to keep us safe, I get that... I also..." He glanced around them, brows furrowing, feeling his very skin crawl and itch as he considered how to say his next words. Gods, but it took so much longer to focus. "Yeaaaah...I saw you too...I saw you dead and rotting and I knew it wasn't you and...Mia...Mia listen do you really...do you really think we can believe everything we see and hear?"
Ok all right, maybe that wasn't the best thing to lead with. "Whoa whoa....Mia. You're not annoying, ok?" Straightening, he curled his arm rather firmly about Mia's waist...attempting to shift his friend back towards the hospital...and something that resembled safety. "You talk more than I do, that's probably good right...? Straightens us both out."
Third was already well aware...that he himself was going crazy, this shitty fog was making him go absolutely bonkers. So it was no wonder that the blond was a horrific mess. They both were.
"C'mon, buddy, we go out there and we're definitely just going to run into more undead. That's just...sense. I think. I don't even know much about sense right now."

"No, nonono." Mia kept pulling, tugging the other along. "He promised! He said that if I brought rubber bands... and he also needs brightly colored gumballs and raven feathers and duct tape and some paper clips." s**t, was this guy MacGyver or something?
To Mia, it all sounded perfectly plausible.
"And some milk to drink. Because milk does a body good." Mia turned to stare at Third.
"You believe me, right?" Mia stared at him, as if one wrong word would break him. "I'm not crazy. I'm not."

Paranoia was rampant and alive in Third's veins. He was already seeing s**t in the fog. Past comrades, Mia, the aunt that had died when he was ten. Yeah no. Third didn't trust anything.
He was damnedly sure that Mia had seen SOMETHING, but it sure as hell wasn't going to be some miracle parrot with a penchant for gumballs and raven feathers that got him out of this mess. Truth be told there probably wasn't ANY getting out of this mess.
"We're all crazy, Mia....this place makes us crazy, hell I'm crazy." He laughed rather brokenly, grabbing both of the blond's hands...and then pulling him into Third's solid mass....all but cradling the rambling man.
"When's the last time you've seen milk anyway...that s**t doesn't keep." It was almost a grumble.

The blond shook his head, shaking as he attempted to get out of the embrace. Now wasn't the time for hugs! They didn't have time for this s**t! As long as they got out of the fog, they would be safe.
At least, that's what the stranger had promised. And Mia took promises seriously... even if he didn't know they were naught but lies.
"Why don't you believe me?" Mia's face was red, his eyes glossy, and he looked like he was about to cry. "I'm not crazy." He paused. "Not about this. No." The blond took a step back, as if he was about ready to run for it, to try to run past the undying and the fog. He thought he could make it.
"I'll find the stuff on the way. With or without you. I tried to help you. I tried. I don't know what's real anymore. Were you real before? Are you real now? I don't know. I don't know." Exasperated, he pulled on the ears on his llama hat, now pacing in a circle.
There was a reason others called him 'mad'.

Right? XD I swear if he rolls evens he should pick Mia up and carry him out on a shoulder.

Keeping a firm grasp on Mia…Third didn’t so much pull the other back as he…resisted being dragged further himself. It worked so-so and at least kept them from gallivanting off into the vast, zombie-riddled unknown. Sure, if there was a way out of here, there was definitely no way involving milk, a raven’s feather, and a goddamn ball of rubber bands.
“Ok ok ok….so if this guy needs all this stuff we’re not just going to be able to yoink it off some Undead, yeah? We’re going to need to go hunt it down…because ah…” Quick Third, think. There was definitely something off in his friend’s walnut, and it had the thief on the verge of panicking.
The blond wasn’t precisely a firm bastion of sanity on his good days, and now it looked as though he was disintegrating entirely. “…what if we got out there and we couldn’t find it?” Diplomacy was the next step, try to work with Mia’s own, delirious logic. Or uh…whatever was passing for it up there in his brain-scramble. “We’re probably better off checking in the buildings for that kind of stuff, man. Or maybe I could yoink it from someone...you know how good I am at that...”

"No." Mia was full of no's. "We can find it out there. He said so. It's all just lying on the ground waiting for us to pick it up and the undead won't bother us at all because he said so."
He tugged, looking more and more distraught by the moment.
"We have to go we have to go we have to go don't you see that I'm trying to save us?" Tears now rolled down his face; why was Third against him?
