Mundane Afflictions are easily caught diseases that can quickly spread through a population. Some are more hazardous than others, either resulting in death or a weakened body after they are through with their victim. The vast majority, however, are just parts of the unique lives many Alorians live. Most of these illnesses can also trace their origin back to the humid continent of Daen or animal races such as the Dargon.

Irregular Afflictions are those often related to strange magic or artificial creations of alchemy. Whether the result of some mystical law of the Alorian world or by careless alchemists, these illnesses often have unique methods of spreading and highly irregular symptoms suffered by the victim. While they number far less than Mundane Afflictions, the amount of Irregular Afflictions will probably grow as the race for new creations increases between the different nations and people of Aloria.

Vampirism, also known as the Sanguine Curse, is a [[Void]]-spawned blood-curse that has plagued [[Aloria]] for hundreds of years. Often seen as a disease and hated by most of the people of Aloria, this affliction causes the infected to undergo both physical and mental transformations. The telltale signs of the Vampire Bloodlines are always the same, and Vampires also have a culture of forming so-called Covens; groups of Vampires united under the rule of one powerful Lord Vampire, a [[Zehler]] Bloodline Vampire. Together with their Coven brethren, Vampires seek to destabilize the ruling authorities of Aloria to establish a global anarchy in which they can feed on the blood of the weak without fear of prosecution.

Aloria wouldn’t be a living breathing world if within that breath there weren’t hundreds of bacteria and germs. The Afflictions generated from these creatures, whether formed of their accord in controlled surroundings, or with a bit of help from Magic, all hold adverse effects which they impart onto hapless victims. In recent years, the number of these afflictions has grown, as has the damage they can cause. While some are curable, others are not, which presents a looming threat to the Alorian populace.
