WereCat Disease: Maximum damage bite inflicts Lycan Sickness, a disease that will persist until the victim is cured:
WereCat Disease effect:
Defensive rolls to evade: -2
Special: If you inflict 3 maximum bites on a foe in one single battle, and if it survives, it will be transformed into a Raging WereCat in 1-D6 +1 travel turns. Once it has transformed into a Raging WereCat, the only thing that can cure it is a powerful spell from a Mystic (or death).
Note: A foe that survives an encounter after receiving 3 maximum bites must be kept track of by the Game Master. If others venture into this general area of the map (within 6 spaces of where the Raging WereCat resides), there will be a 10% chance per travel turn of encountering it. In this, legends are created. See: "WereCat, Raging" for more information.
