PERMISSIONS:
- Klara has several powers of note.
1 - With a simple hand motion, she can make blood spray violently from a target's body. I can understand being squicked at this, so if you'd rather I keep it far away from you/your character, say such.
2 - She can hypnotize people into telling only what they know as truth, by knowing a) their real name, and b) a powerful secret about them. Obviously, this WILL NOT occur without prior discussion and planning! If you're interested in it, ping me here.
3 - Klara is a literal living plague. Through physical contact with her, it is possible - though not guaranteed, as it often works As The Plot Demands - to contract and begin incubating the awful disease known as the Sand Plague, a bacteria that attacks the blood cells. It is not infectious in its initial stage. It will give the sickened a cough, wooziness, some pain. The incubation can be delayed and fought via the administration of powerful antibiotics. But when the illness reaches its second, infectious stage, the victim is wracked by horrible, sanity-eroding pain. It's reputed that at this stage it "boils the blood," and is typified by copious bleeding from your, well, everywhere.
Sand Plague is only present in living tissue. As soon as the afflicted dies, it swiftly vanishes.
Klara is not a touchy person and will not initiate physical contact unless it is utterly necessary. If you're interested in making your character become horribly ill and later infectious, we can discuss that here as well.
This is what infected blood looks like:
SO BASICALLY:
BLOODSPLOSIONS Y/N
HYPNOSIS Y/N
PLAGUE Y/N

EDIT: Though he's pretty disease-resistant. I don't know if his constitution is enough for something he's absolutely never been exposed to though.
no subject
disease resistant works for me; the game's full of characters known as adherents who have inherently 'stronger' blood because of their personal potential. they can be infected, but it's less 'because it's a disease' and more 'people screwed up on a karmic level so now these people have to get repercussions.' if we do ever decide to get him ill, it'd be less because of accidental contact and more, because it fits on a meta and storyline level?

this canon is complicated and basically works on theatrical rules orz
