Positive Symptoms of Schizophrenia
— Delusions: Myliu believes that the skull on his head is capable of telling him who is evil and who is good. It give him a sense of safety, as he believes that with it on nothing of extreme harm can come to him, or at least he will know and be able to try and prevent it before it happens. Connected to this, he has delusions of who is good and evil, even though he might be completely false in his assumptions. He has nothing personally against any individual, as a result, and his hatred of certain people should not be taken to heart, as it is something he cannot control.
— Hallucinations: Most of the time, Myliu's hallucinations have to do with the dead and with fire. He claims that on occasion he can see spirits, who talk to him and talk him into doing things. Sometimes he doesn't listen to the spirits, although sometimes he chooses too, and once he gains the ability to actually see spirits, he will take the "safe" route and believe that all of the dead he sees are real, even if that isn't true. Likewise, he has hallucinations of things catching fire, although these seem to impact him far less than others seem to. He is oddly relaxed during the hallucinations of fire, and will simply remove himself from the location he thinks the fire is in.
— Catatonia: usually occurs at random, has no trigger, although it is often tied to certain hallucinations.
