However, it has weakened your immune system, meaning that rolling a natural 2 will now classify as a critical failure. For every time one catches the plague, the range for a critical failure grows, up to a maximum of a natural 5. After that point, the critical failure window stops growing.

Highly Contagious!

Treatment

The Plague can only be cured with heal cast with a spell slot of 6 or higher or through the direct intervention of a god of life. When one perishes of the plague, if brought back through either resurrection or through direct divine intervention, one no longer suffers from the effects of the plague unless once again infected. To delay death on day 7 however, one can be healed using greater restoration and continuously fend off the exhaustion caused by the plague until cured.
