Skillset: Necroscream Skill: UndeadBlues
 Org: Cacophony Status: Rejected Apr 2009
Furies' Decision:
Don't believe this is necessary
Problem: With plague afflictions being so easy to cure as a group (a single
salve balance, herb balance, purgative balance, and focus mind can instantly
cure 4/5 possible afflictions) one affliction every 10 seconds even with
blackdeath does not really make building them up very reasonable. Thus, for any
realistic chance for that to happen, we will have to take advantage of every
possible method to deliver them. Breathing contagion will become a staple for
us but becoming a lich takes the assistance of a trans necromancer and 10 to 15
power every time you die.
Solution #1: Change the undeath status from undeadblues to allow a
 Cacophonists to breathe contagion for 3 power. This is already an
 option, but in heavy combat with multiple deaths staying liched
 is a huge power drain and not always possible. Making what is, in
 essence, a convenience change will allow us to competitively stay
 in the thick of things. (cloud would still be gustable unless an
 actual lich was in the room)
Solution #2: Solution 1 but granted from a different song or song combination.

I'm cool with that. It already makes you undead so why not be able to breathe
contagion

It would have been better to change the sickeningplague afflictions to ones that
mesh better with glamours and tarot so this sort of doubling up would not be
necessary, but since that failed last month I s'pose this is the next best
thing. Make access to contagion less of a hassle for cacophones, that's
reasonable.
