Nobody exactly has a fun time in the fayz.
I mean, they lose their parents and/or siblings, shortly followed by a famish which threatens the lives of the people living there, just before enduring a raging fire caused by a hate group and then finally, they throw up their lungs in a great plague.

But which gone character do you think "has it worse" and why?
You can pick any character you feel has been through the most traumatic ordeal, regardless of weather they're Perdido, Coates or De sales kids.

Here's just a random example;

Brittney
- Lost brother to a Coyote.
- Was tortured and then killed by a sociopath with a whip for a arm.
- Was buried underground fully concious for roughly three months.
- Had to share her body with her murderer, who has her tied up and then shot three times in the face, all while fully concious.
- is tricked by the gaiaphage into becoming a slave.

Anyway, thanks for reading.

Good list.
Yep- that sucks. :P
I'm actually going to say that Mary Terrafino had a pretty sucky time in the FAYZ.

- Was a manic depressive with a long history of bulimia.
- Yet they still let her look after a hundred or so kids nearly all by herself, around the clock.
- IHATEASTRIDELLISONPART1: Was tied to a chair by Astrid, and force-fed, yet still not offered any support or help for her eating dissorder.
- Everyone totally ignored her obvious issues, and let her become a junkie for prozac, totally aware that it was about to run out.
- Was manipulated by the gaiaphage ("Nerezza") into going insane.
- Still, no-one cared.
- IHATEASTRIDELLISONPART2:...Yet, Astrid still found the opportunity to out her as a lunatic in front of the whole town, because Astrids a piece of work like that.
- Was tricked into hurling herself off a cliff.
- Despite everything she did for Perdido beach, which 98% of the residents didn't have the guts to do, she was still remembered solely for nothing but her "suicide".
- And to top it all off, they didn't bother giving her a god-damn grave!

(Oh yeah, and I haven't read Fear yet, but I have heard rumours that shes in the fifth book, so I'm holding out for something cool and nice to happen to her then. Instead of, you know, totally being trolled by all the Perdido beach kids. :P Fingers crossed.)

^ i agree, Cigar is certainly on top of the list.

Lana and her fight with the gaiaphage? Mary and all her responsibility and her disorder and what happened in Fear? or maybe Hunter or Dekka?

Dekka? Care to elaborate?

What happens to Dekka in Plague is pretty bad because she told Sam to kill her before the bugs ate her alive but he kept her alive to attempt surgery on her. I know it worked but she's never going to forget the feeling of the bugs inside of her.

(Shudders) Yeah, your right.
Plus I can totally relate to the whole
"Oh yeah...The girl I'm in love with is straight" sinking-feeling-of-doom and such.

Britanny, without a doubt. I mean, she goes through so much crap throughout the series, including and pretty much ends up going insane. Most characters who get in bad situations have generally done something to put themselves there, or otherwise have their 'flaws' (for want of a better word). Brittany? No. She was just trying to protect herself, and the kids in Perdido Beach, and look at what ends up happening to her because of it.

I think Edilio has things pretty bad in the FAYZ. I know Brittney has awful things and she really didn't deserve it but Edilio has so much pressure put on him all the time. He proves himself as one of the only decent guys in the FAYZ and from then on everyone relies on him! Sam relies on Edilio more and more as the books progress. Edilio has had to bury every kid that has died in the FAYZ but everyone just expects him to do it because he's so nice.

Yep.
He was mayor for twice as long as Sam yet didnt whine half as much. :P

Even though I never really liked her that much, Mary had the most horrible life and biggest resposibility ever. I mean, nobody can even relate to her because she had to do most things all on her own (with the exception of John's help) and never ever got a break.

I agree, it sucks that the decent kids like Edilio and Mary always have all the pressure and responsibility. They're expected to work really hard and be nice all of the time and I always forget that they actually really young to be digging graves and looking after loads od toddlers!

Yep.
The only one I'll say seems to enjoy herself is Brianna...But even she isn't immune to famines, radio-active poisoning...

I reakon Hunter had it worst. everyone was out to get him. zil and his crew got everyone to attemt to kill him for food then he suffered brain damage and was kicked out of the town. THEN he was getting eaten inside out and had to beg sam to kill him.
Brittney had it bad as well but now she thinks shes doing good, not evil so shes fine. (in a sick, twisted way)
Sam had, still has, a lot of pressure on him and thinks about his problems to much. its causing him to get depressed. PLUS he has 'drakephobia' cause drake almost killed him.
Lana has to deal with the gaiaphage reaching out to her and had been through so much around the start of the fayz.
Knowbodys had it easy. but these people^ have had it worse that most. and others have had it erally bad as well such as Dekka, Duck or Cigar ect.
