-Undead is a class that is more concerned with what you are than what you do, at least initially. It's also one of the more monstrous and dark-themed classes, but that doesn't necessarily put it outside the reach of players.

-|Disease is a catch-all term for any number of slow-acting sicknesses, curses, or afflictions. At the end of any exploration turn in which you've been exposed to a disease, roll a trigger die. If the result is 7+, you're fine. If not, you caught it. Make this check a maximum of once per exploration turn no matter how much exposure you suffered. \\ \\ When you catch a disease, you immediately gain the effects of an injury determined by the specific disease you caught. Once per in-game day, you must make a progression check by rolling a trigger die (if you do nothing that day except get bed rest you can roll twice and take the higher result): \\ - 9+: The disease is removed. You immediately lose the effects of its associated injury (assuming you didn't already have the same injury some other way). \\ - 5-8: Nothing happens. You don't get better, but you don't get worse either. \\ - 3-4: You take a -1 penalty to maximum Flesh as the disease ravages your body. This can happen multiple times, and its effects stack. Maximum Flesh comes back at the end of the session if you manage to throw off the disease, but otherwise does not. Also, a single random party member or important NPC that you've interacted with since getting infected must immediately roll for exposure from the same disease. \\ \\ All diseases are made of two parts: a **descriptor** (determines which injury the disease's effects replicate) and an **expression** (alters the basic rules for how the disease progresses/appears). For example, a disease with the Delirium descriptor and the Fits expression would be called the Delirium Fits. Specific diseases can be selected by the referee or rolled up randomly from the lists below. |
