I'm 88 years of age. (108)

I have a bad back, a bum leg, and dementia.

I'm not sure why they take me on these ridiculous raids. Maybe they think it will help me feel like I'm still useful.

I don't want to be useful. I want to be napping!

I don't walk nearly as quickly as those whipper snappers and they went and left me at the trading post! -- if they're gonna take me on these trips, they could at least keep an eye on me and not leave me stranded!!

Thankfully, Noikora found me collapsed from malnutrion and rescued me.

Hopefully I can remember my way back to my village!

[Some traders from a friendly, neighboring faction came through. I made a few tades and they went on their way...... I found Wilson collapsed just beyond my main settlement area.
From starvaion.
He had a meal with him.
But, maybe when you're 88 and have dementia you forget you have food and to eat it.

So I fed him and he walked off towards his faction when he was feeling better.

But with NO FOOD and his movement is "very poor: 17%"

Now I'm a bit worried he is too out of it to find his way home and not fast enough to get there before he starves to death anyway.

UPDATE!

I posted this right before he waddled off the edge of my map. He collapsed again. So I captured him. I figure I can recruit him and he can be the old man that sits and makes sculptures- if he becomes a recruit.
I think he would have died before he could have walked off the map on his own.

sigh

now there is Bad Will and the faction will be my enemy.

So, I will release him once again, after he can walk.

and he will collapse again.

and probably die.

poor Old Man Wilson.

The AI is saddistic!

(he made it off the map on his next try)
