I think I'm going to enjoy reading whatever the hell it is your sadistic little mind is cooking up  Wow, Leela in a total breakdown... Hmm, that's something to think about. Well, it would depend on what caused the breakdown, I suppose. It's difficult for me think of a big enough trigger to make her snap like that; she IS a very strong character. (But oh, I do so enjoy seeing strong characters spontaneously combust. Yes, I am an evil bastard.) Well, what happens first in a total breakdown is the breaking down of all emotional and moral walls one has built around oneself, since the reason they're there is to protect from this sort of thing. For Leela, that would mean she would become a LOT more "liberal" with the way the acts. A total breakdown also consists of very negative thought of oneself (we are talking near-suicidal/suicidal caliber here, right?), which constitutes destructive behavior. Thus, what we have so far is self-destructive behavior that goes against whatever morals/ethics/standards the character has. For Leela, this would probably mean drugs, sex and alcohol - all in dangerously high doses. It progresses from there, as not only do drugs lead you further down the drain, but you see that you're doing everything you're against. Anger sets in. Your loved ones try to help you; try to drag you out of your hole, but you fight agaisnt them. You lash out at all who try to help you. Considering Leela's physical strength and fighting skills, not to mention her violent tendancies even when she's in a normal state of mind, this would be EXTREMELY dangerous. She just might kill some of those closest to her, intentionally or otherwise (most likely unintentionally), or at least come close to it. From there, her mental and physical state would deteriorate exponentially, and there would be three possible outcomes: either she finds the strength to drag herself out of it (with the help of her loved ones), she is imprisoned and/or killed for her crimes and violent behavior, or she commits suicide (whether it be by drug overdose or by intentionally stabbing herself/shooting herself/jumping off a cliff). Personally, I think she's strong enough to climb out of that hole, but what you write is up to you.
