Plainly put: you’re gassy. You leave behind a scent trail which allows animals to track you more easily. NPCs will react poorly to you, and you may be rather noisy at inopportune moments.[/b]

Unfortunately, your teeth are all rotten and they will be for the rest of your short miserable life. You will spend your whole life in pain, are mouth encumbered and eat slower.

GOD DAMNIT WOMAN. THAT’S TUBBY CUSTARD.  
Which might horrifically imply something about the Teletubbies’ diet.

Speaking of which, Zombie Mascot: A zombie who was in a team mascot costume when they died. Higher resistance to bash damage. Commonly found at sporting areas.

The game should have spambots which hide in vending machines and destroy cash cards.

Headcrabs. Thousands of headcrabs.  
Instant death if they pounce on you, any zombie pounced on by a headcrab effectively gets an instant revive after the first time you kill it. Even hulks.

Headcrabs are killed instantly by crowbars and headcrabbed zombies take double damage from crowbars
