yeah, I read in a post that in real life people can be schizo. So in the game that is allowed too. Well, If you are schizo you don't really interact with what you believe. What I mean is schizo people may say they saw the queen of england. But if you were there that very moment the "met: Her. you would just see the person standing there. Ok heres another example. He a schizo person was "imagining" he was killing someone> And you were there near him in real life. He or she wouldn't be walking around pretendin to have a knife. They just sit and look like there thinking

Also, before you play a Schizophrenic, please find out what it is. I recommend you search Google for
APA, DSM-IV, Schizophrenia

not at all, first they have tried an exorcism, after that they have burned him, or what ever they like too use. or they have just imprisoned him, for a long long long time, and in a really dirty hole.

Mental illness has long been a label that leads to negative judgments and mistreatment of those given that designation. Early civilizations viewed mental disorder as a sign of demon possession, thereby marking the person as undesirable and even dangerous to be around. Medieval Europeans saw those who displayed mental disorder as evil and sinful and as having brought their afflictions upon themselves through weak character and lack of faith.

Later, European views "evolved" to conceptualize those with mental illnesses as bestial rather than sinful, ruled by uncontrollable animal passions and not sensitive to cold or heat or pain or embarrassment the way other civilized persons might be.

What a coincidence! I started playing a paranoid schizophrenic a few days ago, see if you can pick him out around town.

Alot of people in Trollsbane are rouges and such that would just kill a crazy person, however you cannot just kill someone and they go away in this game.
