Editing Blood rot

__NOTOC__
'''Blood rot''' is a long-lasting [[disease]] that can be fatal if untreated.

Unlike other diseases, it doesn't appear on its own, but rather only appears as part of quests if you have the [[Royalty DLC]] installed.

== Stages ==
These are the following stages in which blood rot will progress through, and the effects it has on the victim:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Stage !! Begins at !! Symptoms
|-
| '''Blood rot (minor)''' || 0 - 0.59 severity ||
*-5% [[Blood pumping]]
*-5% [[Blood filtration]]
|-
| '''Blood rot (major)''' || 0.6 - 0.84 severity ||
*-10% Blood pumping
*-10% Blood filtration
*Vomiting on average every 1.5 days
|-
| '''Blood rot (Extreme)''' || 0.85 - 0.99 severity ||
*+5% [[Pain]]
*-15% Blood pumping
*-15% Blood filtration
*Vomiting on average every 0.75 days
|-
| '''Blood rot (Extreme)''' || 1.00 severity ||
*Death
|}

=== Progression ===
*Severity increases by 0.4 per day.
*Treatment slows progression by a maximum of 1 per day.
**This means the disease will regress by 0.6 per day at this rate.
**Note that good treatment will not cause the disease to go away on its own.

The disease resolves after 30-40 days, independent of the patient's immune functioning.{{Check Tag|Fact Check|Does it depend on immune functioning?}}

== Treatment ==
Treatment can be done using medicine which suppresses the disease, preventing it from reaching fatal stages.

An immediate cure is expensive, requiring 10 [[glitterworld medicine]] and a doctor with medical skill 5 or above.

== Version history ==
* 1.1 - Added at some point in 1.1.
* [[Version/1.1.2654|1.1.2654]] - Disease removed from the basegame and added to the Royalty DLC. Previously it was fully functional in Core, but did not appear in regular, unmodded gameplay unless Royalty was enabled.
