Medical File DN-407P Paladin Danse Patient symptoms included inability to sleep and a "dull throbbing pain in head." All standard tests are negative. Evidence suggests post-traumatic stress disorder or similar issue. Until severity of issue increases, recommend voluntary removal from active duty. Patient was informed, but is currently in the field.

Do we know if Knight Captain Cade's terminal entry for Danse was made before or after he set out with Gladius?

I'm guessing he saw Cade before the mission thinking he was just going in for headaches and assumed it was lack of sleep. To his surprise it led to a PTSD diagnosis prompting Cade to recommend Danse take some time off. Danse probably refused to accept the diagnosis and went on the mission anyway, hence the “patient was informed, but is currently in the field”.

Later on during the mission, Haylen would again diagnose Danse with PTSD (although she called it 'Battle Fatigue' in her terminal entry) and would recommend bed rest, which Danse would also refuse.

(The next part is a content warning for suicide ideation)

I think Danse was suicidal. It kind of reminds me of Preston where he describes just not caring what happened to him. Danse wasn't going to take his life with his own hands but instead would just keep doing mission after mission until he was ground down and eventually died in battle.

He actually cares about his squad, though, and his feelings of responsibility towards them kept him from actually doing it.

Tangent

That would actually make Blind Betrayal more climactic and sad because you get to see this arc where he starts to understand that people care about him and he finally gets to enjoy being close to someone just to have his life turned upside down. Only this time he doesn't want to die. He feels like he has to because of duty, which is the exact same excuse he would have used anyway to end his life.

In fact in that context when Maxson confronts the two of you leaving the bunker, pretty much everything he says is basically a huge PTSD trigger.

Tangent: I have a lot of thoughts on Maxson and Danse's relationship in general, but also the face that Maxson had sent Cade a memo telling him to take mental health seriously. Danse was the only one who had any kind of mental illness diagnosed. They decided to wait until his symptoms worsened and let him go on that mission anyway and just marked his case as “treated”. I'll do a separate post about that, though. I've digressed enough.

Paladin: “I move forward to pull the Sorcerer out of the water.”

Godslayer (Homebrew class): “Come on man. You don’t need to do that.”

Paladin: “I am good aligned!”

Rouge: “It’s only 1 foot of water. He’ll be fine.”

Paladin: “He’s tied up and laying face down!!”

So your plan is riding on giving Captain America surprise HRT and then assuming he will be so traumatized and thrown off by it that he, again, CAPTAIN AMERICA will play ball? And not the more likely scenario that the fresh fem-Cap will break your nose with his fists and ask one of the thousand super scientists he knows to try and fix it? Captain America 391

my sole survivor. he's a navy feller as opposed to a marine because i like the uniform and thought it would be funny with the aquaboy perk. he's still, 200 years later, fiercely patriotic (for a country that no longer exists) and very proud of his time in service- he was honorably discharged after anchorage for sustaining that eye injury. i wanted to make him older, like late 30s-early 40s so i hooope that translates
