[Mulan's voice is muffled and part of her face is hidden behind the regulation gas mask she was issued at work, but for those that would recognize them her eyes and hair are still clearly visible. Likewise, the familiar armor that covers her upper body.]

For those of you that are more recent arrivals - I'm aware there are a few of you - it is to be advised you avoid coming into contact with the strange mists that have been filling the area the past couple of days. Breathing in this air can cause you to experience unpredictable and dangerous effects. [Her muffled voice turns even more grim and her eyes flash darkly as she recalls her own personal encounter with the fog's abilities, and she hurries on past giving herself time to reflect.] Though not everyone reacts the same, it can dangerous to your health for a multitude of reasons. The best course of action would be to remain indoors if you can, and avoid them completely.

If there are any small errands or tasks that would otherwise bring you out, I would be willing to undertake them for you. Obviously I can't get to everyone, but I'd like to help if I can, as much as possible.

The good news is that if I'm reading the signs right, there seems to be a storm brewing for later today. Hopefully it will be enough to blow all of this accursed fog away, so we can all breathe safely once more.

Yes, that's just great, I wish I'd of known about this earlier. [Generally he'd like to know everything about a strange planet he's visiting. It irritates him that he doesn't know jack about this place.]

Well you know about it now. It's unfortunately the most I can do. [Lose the attitude pal, they're all in the same state here.]

I guess I'll just add that to the list of reasons why this planet shouldn't be allowed to exist. [It's nothing personal, he's just always grumpy. And planet destruction is really just a semi-empty threat/statement/him just blowing off some steam.]

Besides, why are you so willing to brave the environment when it's so 'dangerous' anyhow? Got a secret you'd like to share with the class?

[She gestures shortly to breathing mask she's wearing.] I was lucky enough to find employment with the sheriff's office - the local officials here have some useful resources that others do not. I don't know if it would be easy for everyone else to find or buy a mask here, but I doubt it. Would you be fortunate enough to somehow get your hands on one as well though, you would presumably be safe.

[Ugh. He doesn't want to wear one of those things. They look ugly. If he can get one, he'll do it...if he has to.]

Presumably. I don't like it when something isn't guaranteed to me.

And I don't like to make promises based on my own incomplete information. I'd much rather hedge my bets.
