Welp, I had to go and do it. You tested me as an autistic, snzfucker artist with a love for DND. And I suppose I failed.
And, because I can never do anything halfway, here is an explanation for each:
Lawful Good Sickie: While they do their best to take care of themselves, they often go overboard, prioritizing what is “required” rather than what they actually need to feel better. They will also follow all hygiene protocols, but still come to work or school because, technically, they are following the rules. They are waiting for a break that will never come until it’s made for them - usually alongside a hospital visit. (“I need to make sure I get everything done before I can rest.”)
Neutral Good Sickie: They do the best they can with what they have. They do what they are supposed to do, but not holding themselves to a rigorous schedule or forcing themselves to be proper. In other words, they let themselves be sick. They let their room get messy, they are not afraid of asking for help, and they will do whatever it best for their body. These guys also make really good caretakers, if their big gets passed around. (“Microwave meals are easiest, and it’s what my stomach can handle right now.”)
Chaotic Good Sickie: This sickie wants to be a “good patient,” to the point where they endanger themselves. They may always want to be available, or they may be afraid of showing vulnerability. They may become paranoid of offending others or getting others sick, so they hide away until their condition becomes critical. When they are finally taken care of, they’ll be so afraid to ask for things that the caretaker has to either guess or convince the sickie to tell them. (“I can take care of myself! I don’t need to burden anyone…”)
Lawful Neutral Sickie: They will do what other people tell them to do, since they want to go with the flow. However, they will never take any initiative to take care of themselves. This may be because they don’t realize how sick they are, or because they don’t feel like they deserve care. Either way, if no one tells them how to care for themselves or does it for them, it’s likely that they never will. (“Okay, okay, fine. I’ll take the medicine. Geez.”)
True Neutral Sickie: They don’t see sickness as an actual obstacle, but a part of the routine of life. This may seem sage and wise, but this actually means that they don’t treat themselves any differently when their sick, which means that they can avoid the care they actually need. They’ll go to work, exercise, clean, and do anything else without any regard to how they are feeling. This may have been caused from a lack of sympathy or neglect from their family. (“The doctor says I have the flu. It’s no big deal.”)
Chaotic Neutral Sickie: They will actively fight against the people that want to help them. Instead of listening to people’s concerns, they’ll actively deny them, getting very defensive. They’ll refuse other people’s care and concern for them. While the other neutrals are willing to reason with those that care for them, this sickie is not, which means that they will likely endanger themselves or others with their pride or shame. (“I’m fine! Just leave me alone!”)
Lawful Evil Sickie: They are, at their core, mischievous. They aren’t often actively malicious - they know when lines can be crossed, and which ones can’t. To everyone but the caretaker, the sickie might seem rude or ungrateful. But, in reality, this treatment is usually with the consent (and pleasure) of the caretaker. They quickly reel it back in if they take things too far. They only share contagion if they are absolutely sure that the other person wants it, and never crossed a boundary that has been set. (“Don’t get too close. I f-feel a sneeze coming on~”)
Neutral Evil Sickie: They have no end goal except whatever is most comfortable and easiest. They are extremely needy, often with the intent of annoying their caretaker. They want to be pampered, coddled, and never want to lift a finger. It isn’t that they are too sick or emotional to control themselves - they are being actively malicious to their caretaker. They often fake cry, get angry, or guilt trip their unfortunate caretaker to get what they want. They very rarely show that they are grateful or show remorse if they get the caretaker sick - but do on occasion, especially if they have a change of heart. (“I’m too hoooot. Now I’m too coooold. Fluff my pillow! I’m hungry! Not for that!”)
Chaotic Evil Sickie: They have no regard for the health of others or themselves. They don’t want want what is comfortable or good for them - they want whatever is going to help them reach their goal. Perhaps that’s spreading their illness, making caretaking miserable, or using their sickness as a playing card for sympathy. Boundaries are nonexistent for them. Luckily, they often burn themselves out, since they overestimate their pain or fever tolerance. This could lead to a redemptive arc, but that is at the writer’s own discretion. (“Your catching this cold whether you like it or not.”)
You are free to use these for OCs, fics, or even yourselves! This is for everyone to use. As long as you tag me - both for credit and my horniness - you can use this for whatever!
Chaotic Evil Sickie: They have no regard for other’s health, well-being, or care. Whether it’s to spread their illness, make caretaking miserable, or make themselves seem like the victim, they always have a goal they will work towards until the end. They usually do not have comfort or health in mind, but power, fame, or an upper hand of some kind. This usually leads to them burning out after overestimating their pain tolerance, which could lead to a redemptive arc as they realize what empathy means. However, this isn’t always the case. (“You’ll get this cold whether you like it or not.”)
Feel free to use this for characters, other charts, OCs, etc.! This is for everyone, as long as you tag me. I want to see your wonderful creations.
