A Nomad Infested, some questions..

[Ironwatsas]

Actually, this is quite similar to my own Nomad-infestee, Iazyne Aezali.

I young Kusari woman who was disowned and left due to her traditionalist family, worked in Rhineland until she was fired due to corperate scandals, became a freelance trader, was captured by the Consortium and infested as part of a Nomad-behavior experament, escaped, and now flies around undercover as a scout/sabotuer for the Nomads.

Due to the circumstances of her infestation (the injury and weakness of the Nomad implanted in her, and the general state of her personality), she maintained her free will and personality in return for assisting the Nomads against humanity, due to the fact that she is quite angry at Humanity and has nothing better to do.

In her case, she is quite crazy, though is unlikely to attack anyone to avoid blowing her cover and the nature of her ship (an armored transport). She is more likely to use her nomad powers/cuteness/bribery to get others to do her bidding for her. Ximen Benitez can attest to this. Either that, or recover artifacts or useful stuff for the Nomads, disguising herself as a Xenoarchaeoligist, Trader, Freelancer, or whatever else proves expediant.

Generally, Nomad infestees probably wouldn't go out of their way to attack people and blow what cover they have if it means ending up fighting against retarted odds. More likely, they'd play on human divisions and psychology to get other people to fight one another.

I want Vrouw to be an Infested. Who ISN'T connected to the rest of them in mind. Nor would she be 'controlled', as well as not even knowing she was infested. The only thing is, is that she gets these bad headaches whenever she's near an Infested, or a normal Nomad.

I'm just wondering if this would be viable. She'd have all of her memories before she fell asleep, but she wouldn't know jack **** about anything else.

Losing connection to the mindshare would generally not work for reasons boss outlined below. Not being totally controlled is possible, if the Nomad itself agrees. In situations such as Iazyne, the Oracles, and the occasional Wilde and willing Nomad sympathiser, the relationship of the host and parasite would be more symbiotic.

In any case, myself and presumably some of the other Nomad players could meet your character ingame and give pointers through RP.
