New Terror Power: DS...

[reaperwolf]

I noticed the giant rats on p. 74 have SP (PS) or poison listed in the stat block but the description mentions a disease - Blood Fever. Poison causes either 1d6 or 2d6 extra damage, but the effects of Blood Fever on a failed 3/ST roll are +1 die penalty to all actions until cured. Seems to me a new Terror power.
       
        Note        Effect
DS    Disease    Character contracts a chronic malady suffering a 1 die penalty to all actions until cured.

i wouldn't limit all diseases to one effect like that (even though that was done for poison, but we have a thread for that)

   Note    Effect
PS  Poison  See terror description.
DS  Disease See terror description.

Agreed, I already have a short list of diseases including Blood Fever I'd use in my games and as you wrote, they all have different effects.
