Alexandra is a reporter. Her job is to question people. She also believes that saying the name of an illness will cause you to become sick with it, so she always whispers disease names. People definitely notice this, and can be annoyed by it, but they almost never get so annoyed that they refuse to answer her questions. Alexandra gains 5 CP for accepting this type of Delusion.
