Although a mild form of the terrible disease in terms of comparison, this mutation is particularly stubborn and debilitating over time. When damaged, your connective tissue now attempts to calcify instead of healing as normal. This presents a myriad of complications for joints and muscles that need to be in motion for normal functionality. Each time you receive an Injury, lower the maximum HP of that area of the body by one point.
Treatment
Rad X- Suppresses the ability to lose maximum HP for the duration Rad X is active.
Surgery- This damage can only be restored with the combination of a Stimpack and a dose of Radaway, requiring an Intelligence + Medicine check at Difficulty 2 to properly treat. Any Complications during this roll immediately reduces the maximum HP of the affected area as if it had just suffered from a new Injury.
Intensive Care- Curing this mutation is extremely difficult and requires a master surgeon with a wealth of supplies to get started. You will need to be under full time care, with the doctor making an Intelligence + Medicine roll at Difficulty 1 once daily to see how progress is made. AP generated during this attempt is not added to the group pool, but instead to a side-pool kept track of by the GM. When this side-pool reaches ten and all maximum HP has been restored through Surgery the condition disappears, and you regain your health. While under care you require two Stimpacks and two doses of Radaway each day. For each twenty-four-hour period you go without receiving further treatment or Chems, reduce the side-pool accumulated to cure you by one AP.
