Clinical lycanthropy – believe oneself to be a werewolf. Bark, howl, run around on all fours and howlucinations.
Eating infected mushrooms.
Found in the farmer’s chicken house, naked chasing chickens around. Raving about the full moon and slobbering at the chops. Had to be restrained by 5 men from the village. Bit and scratched at them. Eventually a doctor diagnosed my folly and ordered for a trepanning to remove the folly stone and evil inside my head. Unfortunately the procedure went wrong and before the surgeons could remove the folly stone more spirits entered my brain and they overcame me. As I dropped to the floor the stone rolled out. Plop.
