brave is unbreakable

This is how to make a monster:
In the wake of an act of lunatic courage, one they were butchered and butchered themself for, say their wholeness cannot be judged-that the Pallidification could have spread even before her amputation of her own leg to stop it in its tracks.
Finish the amputation, bind them for safety, and seal them in a branded U Corp storage device in the hold, with nothing but the dark and the pain-no antibiotics, and a fever will set in, and keep them there until you dock again.
Agony and delirium and terror and wounded pride(for this cannot be done with someone perfect, you need someone already inclined, already reckless and proud and manipulative even before the madness) will blend together into something noxious, something that seeks a source of blame, anything to blame for the suffering she is in, and then crystallizes into something beyond insanity, a furious unbreakable undefeatable fearless hatred that has been beaten once and will now suffer no further insult to its lunatic bravery.
