Description: Casting this spell causes a creature
to acquire the disease known as leprosy. (see
Diseases in Chap. 2: Body). The target creature
must be touched successfully. If the
target creature resists being touched, then
the caster must make a Brawling skill check
(see Chap. 8: Skills).
Upon successfully touching the target
creature, they must pass a Health check
at TH 26 not to acquire the disease. If the
target creature fails the check, then they acquire
leprosy.
Leprosy is a chronic, infectious disease
that primarily affects the skin, mucous
membranes, and nerves. Many consider leprosy
to be a punishment of the gods for sin;
hence, the leper is in a state of defilement.
The target creature immediately experiences
a loss of sensation in 1d4 patches
of skin. These areas are randomly determined
as follows: Roll 1d10 and consult the
table for Body Part Proportion in Chapter 2:
Body to determine the bodily location.
1 of these areas is severe enough to
cause a body part or limb to fall off. The
others remain problematic areas of extremely
low sensation.
