Vasca Virus

The Vasca Virus is a highly infectious, parasitic, blood-borne virus unique to Kavats that spreads through contact with their saliva. The virus is extremely sensitive to light and, as such, infected kavats are completely nocturnal. Despite this, vasca kavats cause great disturbances in any ecosystem they find themselves in, destroying entire animal colonies overnight. Whilst a Vasca Curative exists, it does not protect against future infections.
==Stages==
===Ostia Vasca===
The first and most noticeable stage: the infected kavat will begin to develop ears akin to a bat's wings and its fangs will elongate. It is at this point infected kavats will also begin to crave blood. These changes render the host quite weak.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect	Good	Bad
 	 	
===Bau Vasca===
At this stage the infected kavat will have become accustomed to their modified body, proficiently hunting for more prey to drain of blood and other kavats to infect. Other than this, they are not much different from their weaker selves.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect	Good	Bad
 	 	
===Nephil Vasca===
The final stage of the Vasca virus. These kavats exist solely to spread the virus. They are insatiably ravenous for blood; the only thing their bodies can tolerate digesting. Even at this stage they can still be cured, albeit at great difficulty.
When captured via Conservation they will reward the following:
Perfect	Good	Bad
 	 	
==Vasca Curative==
The Vasca Curative is a gear item that cures nearby Kavats (within a radius of 5m of the player) of the Vasca Virus. It can be bought from Master Teasonai on Cetus for each.
==Notes==
*Domesticated Kavats can also be infected with the Vasca virus, though it merely applies a red overlay. However, Vulpaphylas are immune to infection.
**Avoid bringing Kavats into the Plains of Eidolon at night to avoid possible infection.
