At 100% severity the pawn goes into a Berserk state and won't fall asleep until they are no longer exposed to blood rain.

This event can be fired as a major threat or triggered by rituals. It is a great way to deal with enemies animals can become hostile to, such as mechanoids, as animals follow their usual rules of not attacking through doors unless they see them used. This means your pawns can simply hide from them inside, whereas they will attack many raids.
