With the relative prevalence of magical healing and cleansing, mundane diseases are fortunately rare in the larger cities. The most dangerous diseases are either mundane diseases which have developed a resistance to magical cleansing, or magical diseases which are both more virulent and fast-acting than any ordinary illness. Most magical diseases do not include an incubation period, and become active immediately. Magical diseases do not have a natural Potency as this is determined by the power of the casters roll.
