Fever Plague

This sickness belongs to Queen Burn of Sandwings, and no user is permitted to use it. It is an important part of a fan series I'm writing and it may interfere with my plots if someone uses the plague to kill an OC of their own.
= The Plague =
The Fever Plague was a terrible curse enchanted by Feverdream at the age of 9, but wasn't severe then. It killed many dragons of each tribe, most from the school she use to go to. It was described to be a "random plague which chose victims based on the relationship they have with Feverdream; the dragons with the worst being given a painfully slow death." by Blackout. The plague began in Feverdream, and stopped in Queenfish.
== Deaths ==
* Night, Feverdream's grandfather
* Most of the IceWings
* Skyfall, a SkyWing soldier introduced in Nightmare.
* Many Unnamed IceWings
* Ocean, a SeaWing introduced in Tornado
* Much of the SandWing royal family
* Dare, Feverdream's brother
* Nightglancer, Feverdream's son
* Lots of Unnamed Dragons
* Queen Ptarmigan
== Dragons Who Survived ==
* Blackout, Feverdream's second cousin
* Glassheart, Feverdream's father
* Grayscales, Feverdream's grandson
* Anthrax, Feverdream's son
* NightWing Royalty
* Seawing Royalty (excluding Ocean)
* A Quarter of the Skywing Population (25%)
== Symptoms ==
S = Stage
# Spikes slowly begin to grow from tail, resulting in excessive pain [S0]
# Victim develops severe cough [S1]
# Victim becomes very tired [S1]
# Begins roaring loudly for no reason [S1]
# Victim eventually coughs up blood [S2]
# Severe headaches and can barely fly [S2]
# Can't get up or walk [S3]
# Begins to bite and claw self until bleeding [S4]
# Regurgitate excessively [S5]
# Disembowels self [S5]
== Cure ==
The cure was discovered by Angelfish at the end of Feverdream. The victim would have to lose their tail tip to be saved, however. The curse created a pain in their tail, which was caused by spikes that slowly pierce the scales. Those spikes hold a toxin which slowly spreads until it reaches stage 2. Sometimes, dragons have to lose half their tail to be saved. This results in Bubbles' banned nickname, Halftail.
== Trivia ==
* Originally, the plague was going to kill Statuegrower.
* Feverdream almost forced the plague to kill EVERY dragon on Pyrrhia besides the nightwings.
* Blackout experienced the symptoms, but it turned out to be a curse which was broken by Dawnflight.
* Fever Plague originally was called 'Hatred Plague' and 'Dream Plague'.
* When Urchin was assassinated, her killer set it up like stage 5 of the plague.
* The 25% of skywings left attempted to kill Feverdream, resulting in 7% to die.
* The sandwing royal family's only survivor was Gemsbok, a sand/night hybrid. It was believed she survived due to being partly nightwing, and the plague didn't effect nightwings as badly unless Feverdream specifies so.
