Addictive ExhaustionDisease 15

Legacy Content

Unique Disease 
Source Monsters of Myth pg. 65
Addictive exhaustion results from exposure to Kuworsys's spores, through close proximity with the monster or in fungus-filled pits throughout Kuworsys's lair. At the onset, afflicted creatures find themselves gradually becoming disinterested in life. As the disease worsens, they become hyper-focused on a single activity. As the disease reaches its final stages, sustenance and rest provide no relief for them.

Saving Throw Fortitude; creatures with addictive exhaustion can't reduce their sickened condition from addictive exhaustion while they have the disease; Stage 1 The creature is sickened 1. One skill of the creature's choice doesn't suffer the status penalty from this sickened condition to its skill checks (1 day); Stage 2 As Stage 1, but the creature is sickened 2 and is fatigued (5 days); Stage 3 As Stage 2, but the creature is sickened 3 and has incurable hunger and thirst, in addition to being fatigued (1 day)
