Frostfall Lays is a mysterious occurrence where individuals found themselves irresistibly compelled to lay down in the freezing cold. This enigma affected both humans and slimes alike, leaving them immobilized in a state of temporary stasis. Despite various protective measures, some individuals succumbed to the chilling force, while others remained unaffected.

## Extra Info

In this scenario, the act of laying down due to the Frostfall Lays phenomenon is more of a neutral occurrence rather than inherently good or bad. The laying down itself doesn't cause harm or pose a significant danger, as individuals don't risk injury, fainting, or death from the freezing cold. It seems to be a peculiar and involuntary response to the mysterious chilling force.

The implications of laying down can be both positive and negative depending on the context. On the positive side, individuals in this state experience a temporary suspension of normal activity, which might provide an opportunity for rest or introspection. It's a unique and otherworldly occurrence that, from a scientific or exploratory perspective, could yield valuable insights into the nature of the Frostfall Lays phenomenon.

On the negative side, the compulsion to lay down might be inconvenient or disruptive in certain situations, especially if individuals are engaged in important activities or tasks. It could potentially lead to confusion, communication breakdowns, or logistical challenges if a significant number of people are affected simultaneously.

Ultimately, whether laying down is perceived as good or bad depends on the individual's perspective and the specific circumstances in which the Frostfall Lays occurs.

* Blana
* Yvonne
* Pizza Boi
* Ankoku

* Frosta

## Protective Measures

1. Gasmasks and Sealed Gear: Wearing a gasmask, like Yvonne, proved effective in preventing direct exposure to the chilling force, resisting the compulsion to lay down.
2. Heat-Generating Devices: Carrying portable heat-generating devices created a localized warm zone, counteracting the chilling effect and allowing individuals to resist laying down.
3. Cold Resistance Traits: Those naturally resistant to cold, either due to genetic factors or magical abilities, were completely immune to the Frostfall Lays.
4. Isolation Chambers: Encasing oneself in specially designed isolation chambers provided a protective barrier against the chilling force, allowing individuals to remain upright and unaffected.

## Reason for Laying Down

The mysterious force behind the Frostfall Lays appears to be an otherworldly chilling energy, triggered by a cosmic alignment that disrupts normal atmospheric conditions. This energy creates an irresistible compulsion to lay down, with the numbing cold overriding protective measures and inducing a temporary state of stasis. The force seems to intensify when one's head is fully immersed in it or the entire body is exposed, adding an element of unpredictability to the phenomenon.

## Cure

Bringing affected individuals indoors to a warmer environment serves as the cure for Frostfall Lays. The chilling force loses its influence in heated spaces, allowing individuals who have laid down to recover once sheltered from the anomalous atmospheric conditions. The phenomenon remains a captivating mystery, leaving scientists and those who experienced it eager to unravel the secrets behind the Frostfall Lays enigma.

## Laying Down Records

### Most Lays

1. Talya - 3 times
2. Kate - 2 times

### Least Lays

* Everyone listed laid down at least once, so there isn't a person with the least number of lays, but looking at them, its Siran and Yuliana.

Talya holds the record for laying down the most times during the specified events.

## Trivia

* The only reason I made this was because Brett asked "if you're slimes how aren't you freezing up?" so I was like "hmm, Kate should Lay Down here...and so should Klava" so I did that, they both laid down than I said "Galina and Talya need to join" so Galina walked out, Laid Down, and then to disprove that only slimes did it, Nao laid down and so on until I decided "yeah this is gonna be a thing now, everybody who goes outside will lay down"
* I made it so it only happens at night so we can still do more RPG or laying down things in the day
* I plan on the next time we go to base that so many people will LAY DOWN from this, like more than 10, 20 maybe even 30, I just want a LOT of laying down.
