Suffering Servant (Holy Name)

== Ordo Lepers: ==
People afflicted with sickness or ostracism brought about by natural mutation are, counter-intuitively, given a powerful gift by God to represent His indifference to societal norms. Lepers are afflicted people who have turned around and mastered their condition and drawn power from it, the power of God's self-sacrificing affection. In this light they have been transformed into a very rare and highly-specialized kind of Adept.
It's important to note that all Leper Adepts were given the choice to be healed by God at the moment of their transformation, but for the sake of all those who suffer they decided to keep their affliction and draw special power from it.
AKA: Companions of Lazarus, the Afflicted.
Leper Degrees
Effects
=== Facts: ===
-Lepers can transform their affliction into a potent weapon, unleashing plagues and diseases that affect only the servants of the Darkness.
-Lepers posses an increased constitution and are naturally immune to pain, allowing them to keep going even after taking a beating.
-Unfortunately, like Abominations and Outcasts, Lepers are at the bottom of the social rung - often even with other Adepts.
-Lepers do interact with other Adepts but they never do so casually. Lepers often search each other out to form mono-Order Squads or congregate together in general areas for mutual protection and fellowship. 
-Lepers are disfigured somehow by the disease present within their bodies. 
-All Lepers suffer from a disfiguring disease that drops their social stats to near zero. Actual leprosy is the most common, but birth defects, cancer, and other more 'modern' medical problems have become more publicly known about the Order.
