Death Song

Death Song was a condition that was believed to have come from a lab of a very powerful Garufan alchemist who was attempting to learn how to make a disease that can kill a god.

Symptoms
Death Song is the second worst disease to contract (if counting the disease/mutations of the Eldritch Haze). It is known as a terrible plague that has laid entire communities to waste in less than a week. Contracted by even the slightest physical contact between a healthy creature and a current victim of the disease or their remains. Victims of Death Song can do nothing but shriek and howl as their bodies begin to decay, their skin begins to wither and blacken. Once the incubation period expires, the progress of the disease is so fast that the victim can hear their skin crackle and their bones grow brittle and eventually break.

Occurrences
It was believed that Death Song originally came from a lab that was owned by a powerful Garufan Alchemist who has long since passed away. Death Song has always appeared throughout history and is known to wipe out towns and even cities in a span of over night as it is highly contagious and extremely lethal. Even just breathing the air around those that had it once, one is already at risk and has a high chance of already contracting it. Due to this many factions and other organizations would destroy these towns and cities taking the proper precautions needed and would also kill those that had it to prevent them from spreading the disease even more. It is uncertain however rumor has it that this disease's purpose was to cripple or even kill gods.

There have been many outbreaks of the disease one pertaining to the Garufan civilization that was making this type of disease. (Not going into details of the major outbreaks as you will find out in the campaign and it would be considered spoilers).

Immunities
It is believed some races and species have a natural immunity to Death Song as well as a few specific people as they were "Injected" with the cure but what happened to those people that were "Injected" it is not known as they are presumed dead along with the rest of the people part of the Garufan place where it originated. Some people that possess psionic powers are also immune from this disease as they filter the air using their psionic abilities.
