Jaundice or Battlefield Fever

Level: 2

Damage: 1 level Pain and 1D6 DP per day/1 level Pain, as well as 1 DP per day

Causes: Contaminated wounds, especially on battlefields (1-4 on 1D20, 20%), proximity to someone with the disease (1 on 1D20, 5%)

Antidote: Alcoholic potion made from yoruga and gulmond shortens the disease by 2 days; an ointment made from thrashbeard prevents catching yearly fever.
