The Zeta AI plot (Finally updated)
About
Guest was hired to work night shifts at Animal Hospital, but some things aren't what they seem... Some patients are mimics, who act just like other patients but don't come to the hospital to get treated, they come because they're starving, and anyone nearby will do. To counter them, you can shoot them, tase them, reject service by closing the shutters on the reception, give them the wrong treatment, or go full on hand to hand combat with them. There are also other anomalies. Like the mass of eyes, which show up on the ceiling and if you stare at them you will lose sanity until you look down or give it eye drops. There are also hiders, which will blend in with a wall, and if you get too close to them, they will start chasing you, and if they touch you, they will dissappear and take some of your sanity, but if you had a treatment item, they'll take that instead, they'll also dissappear if you evade them for long enough. You also lose 1 sanity passively by job stress every 5 minutes, to keep your sanity up, you have to drink coffee (which gives you 15 sanity total after the 3 sips you can have before its gone, which can be broken down to 5 sanity each sip), eat chocolate (gives you 60 sanity total after the 3 bites you can have before its gone, which can be broken down to 20 sanity each bite), and mint tea (which regenerates 1-3 sanity passively over a course of 10 seconds.) if your sanity reaches 0 you die. If the hospital records 3 patient deaths, It gets shut down. But if a mimic dies. it won't count towards the patient deaths. There are 8 treatment rooms. The first 5 are in the medical wing which are normal treatment rooms, the 6th room is a cardiovascular scan room, the 7th room is an x-ray room, and the 8th is the surgery room which are all in the emergency wing. At the start of each shift, a shop opens for 2 minutes where the night shift staff can buy supplies or upgrades to help with the shifts, supplies include but are not limited to: one use stun stick, and 5 use stun stick. Upgrades include but are not limited to: Faster DNA scans, faster printers, and faster computers. The patients and night shift staff are anthropomorphic animals. A visitor has to be cleared in all 4 of these fields: the security test, the photo test, the base appearance test, and the scan test. The base appearance test is how they appear to the naked eye, usually the easiest test. The photo test is how they look on their photo. If their ears, eyes, or face appear different on the photo than they do to the naked eye. Then they are an anomaly. The security test is how they look on the security cams, if they appear different on cams than to the naked eye (Unnatural body, void black, staring directly at the security camera, etc.) then they are an anomaly. The Night shift staff have no real names, they are called by their job.
Characters
A light green rabbit that has a white pullstring hoodie. Is the night shift intern. Gender: Male. He usually is the last to know what's going on and isn't really trusted, but he does have 20 bonus sanity added to his usual 72% starting. He's secretly an anomaly but isn't an evil one.
A rose colored floppy eared dog with a fluffy tail with a nurse outfit and Nurse skirt. She is the night shift nurse Gender: female. She is arguably the most loved by the patients but is also the one who struggles most with her sanity. Most night shift staff can only carry 3 medicine items at a time, but Nurse can carry 6.
A lavender colored sheep with a white long sleeved shirt with an orange t-shirt and brown pants. She is the night shift secretary. Gender: female She pretty much hates her job, but the silver lining is she doesn't need coffee, mint tea, or chocolate to stay sane. She gets sanity by checking in patients.
Paramedic is a tan deer that wears a green vest, dark green shirt, and dark green pants. They are the fastest one of them all and usually deals with the fainted patients by bringing them to the room they originally were going to.
Psychologist is a green bunny with a mustache and green shirt. He gets 2× more sanity from sanity giving stuff but loses 2× more sanity from sanity loss events (not counting job stress) but at least is the most sane.
Doctor is an orange deer with a doctor's outfit who gets 5 sanity from treating patients.
Security is a grey cat In a security outfit which has a yellow stun stick that has 5 initial uses but regenerates one each shift. Him and secret agent are close best friends since the hospital needs them both.
Head Nurse Is the night shift head nurse. She has the same exact outfit as nurse but she has nurse pants instead of a nurse skirt. She is a spotted arctic fox. She always has at least 1 of every treatment item (except for surgery ones) on her because she likes being prepared.
Secret agent is a black cat in a White shirt and black pants that has a silver handgun that has 20 initial uses but regenerates one each shift. He also gets 5 sanity and 10 money from killing anomalies, he also has a 5 use anomaly scanner that regenerates 1 each shift and can do hand to hand combat extremely well. He is by far the biggest priority to keep alive In the hospital.
Surgeon is a brown and white deer with surgery clothes. He gets 10 sanity and a 20% speed boost from treating patients successfully.
