Character Fear?
A kind of "trope" I've kept with every iteration of Corelyn across games is her intense kinemortophobia (fear of undead, particularly zombies). If it's dead, it shouldn't move. Undead in any case freak her out to the extreme, and zombies in particular throw her off the deep end.
How do they cope?
Cope? What is this cope?
If she's armed, with anything at all, she will go absolutely ballistic and try to utterly destroy anything that moves in a crazed panic.
If unarmed, she'll shut down and go into a catatonic panic state.
This is, generally, related to how close they are to her. At a distance, if she can, she can "calmly" pick them off, but the closer they get, the more freaked out she gets. Getting so much as touched by one will set her off completely, however.
How do people respond to their fear?
I imagine anyone nearby were Corelyn to go into a panic-induced undead-murder-spree would be worried about getting caught in the crossfire. I really don't see much friend-or-foe at that point in how crazy she goes.
If the other option, people would (hopefully) have to try and get her clear of them.
Do you think one day they could be cured of their fear?
HAhahaahahahahAhAHaHAHahAh no. Poor thing. It has always been, and will always be, her greatest phobia and most potent trigger.
