[Faith will be having run-ins with the glowing tumbleweeds and, as you'd expect, she's going to be having A Time dealing with the aftereffects. She's not big on sharing feelings as a rule, bear with her on this one. At any time, she might be affected by the blue light or the green light.]
(ooc note: If you want Faith to be under the effects of the temporary psychic abilities in the battlefield, the hospital, or the convoy, let me know!)
II. There is no healing of thy bruise; (CW: Dismemberment of a corpse)
[There's nobody to fight, and fighting is Faith's preferred form of therapy, so she's settled for making herself useful: She can be found salvaging useful things from the hospital and the battlefield.
In the hospital, she has no idea what's most valuable, or more than a basic idea of how to use most of it. She's just grabbing as much as she can carry and stuffing it into a cheap duffel bag. When the screens identify her as infected, it has a visible effect on her mood, and she begins idly resting her hand against her pocket or running it over the scarf cinched tightly around her neck. Unfortunately, she's not as fast as she was back home, and while she's mostly adjusted to that here, she's still not able to avoid all the restraints. She might need a rescue. Or, alternatively, she might be the one rescuing you.
On the battlefield, it's mostly weapons- particularly ammo rather than the guns themselves- and the scattered cigarettes she can find. Fortunately, even without her slayer reflexes she's athletic enough to compensate for the gravity shifts and strong enough to help anybody who's not, so don't worry- you're not gonna drift away on her watch. She does seem a little bit cheered up when she picks up a proper sword, and she's actually visibly excited when she finally finds a wrist-mounted crossbow on one of the cyborg corpses... that is, until she realizes that it's not coming off.]
...Figures.
[She seems annoyed rather than upset or disgusted as she pulls out her signature knife and starts unceremoniously sawing the limb off to get at it.]
III. My spirit was troubled to know the dream.
[When the nightmares come to the convoy, Faith will certainly not be immune to them. She has a vast and dizzying catalogue of nightmares to choose from, if one's in the market for fresh horrors. In some, she's being pursued- it might be by a grotesque figure with a disfigured eye, a priest who can't seem to stop mocking and joking, a handsome man (though he might have something wrong with his face), or even a petite blonde who doesn't seem like she should inspire the fear from Faith that she does- she might even be pursued by a younger, more erratic version of herself.
Alternatively, she might be the pursuer, unrelentingly chasing your character for some reason. Other scenarios include falling from the top of a building, a wound from her neck bleeding uncontrollably, being dragged into the water by the corpse of a man in a suit, or making a bed with that same blonde girl when the latter abruptly stabs her in the gut with her own knife.
Or she might wind up in your nightmare instead, or a completely new nightmare altogether! It's a dream, baby, the sky's the limit.]
IV. Trouble and anguish
[Faith likes to be up front and center in case of danger, as a rule. Normally, this is probably a good thing- she seems to have an affinity for killing monsters. (It's almost like it's her destined role or something.) However, when the intellect devourers attack, her being out front and center is more of a hinderance than a harm. It doesn't help that she's under the effects of both blue and green light when it happens- but let's be real, this was always going to hit her where it hurt.
She tries to fight them, she really does, but it takes no time at all for the combination of psychic noise and hallucinations to wear her down, and she's going to collapse hard. If you're lucky, she'll simply go catatonic. If not... well, sometimes she gets stabby when she panics.]
