Ghoul fever

concept resolved

Current state

A disease transmitted by ghoul bites that turns humanoids into ghouls [S10 02:09:19][S13 04:19:00]. Abus's Religion recall knowledge ties it to the cannibalism-borne sickness behind the library's ghouls [S10 02:09:19]. Venris contracted it (from Roth) and was later treated and cleared as a carrier [S12 04:19:14]; in a later fight he accumulated the fever to stage four/five and nearly turned, cured over several in-game days via Treat Disease, Guidance, a Cleanse Affliction spell, town aid, and anti-plague potions [S13 04:19:00].

Why this matters now

Latest recorded development
  • S43 A disease Venris likely contracted by carelessly grabbing a rusty chain (his metal arm now covered in rust). It has a roughly eight-hour onset and worried the party enough to portal home, buy Anti-plague, and plan a heightened Cleanse Affliction. Whether it actually took hold is unresolved… [S43 · 00:16:16 · turn 0091]
