[QUOTE="Jon_Dahl, post: 5758948, member: 89822"] Contagion is an interesting and nasty spell, but IMO the problem is that it's using fantasy diseases while there were plenty of normal diseases around. Since several spells have lesser versions, I'd like to create a 1st-level "lesser"-version of Contagion which would include normal (mild) diseases. Name of the disease [I]-[/I] DC [I]-[/I] Damage [B]Diarrhea[/B] [I]-[/I] DC 9 [I]-[/I] 1d2 Con [B]Pharyngitis[/B] [I]-[/I] DC 11 [I]-[/I] -1 penalty to attack rolls, skills check and ability checks (penalties don't stack & penalties are restored immediately when disease ends) [B]Flu [/B][I]-[/I] DC 10 [I]-[/I] 1d2 Str [B]Whooping cough[/B] [I]-[/I] DC 11 [I]-[/I] 5% spell failure with spells that have verbal components (penalties don't stack & penalties are restored immediately when disease ends) [B]Chlamydia[/B] [I]-[/I] DC 10 [I]-[/I] 1d2 Dex All DCs are highly arbitrary and for game-balance purposes only. You can view the original version here: [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/contagion.htm"]Contagion :: d20srd.org[/URL] Lesser contagion (1st-level spell) would work exactly in the same way, but with a different list of diseases. Help me to create this spell please :) [/QUOTE]
