SA30 Plot Information by DH Skies

Patient Zero has entered the school and is highly infectious!

Greetings Sonorans. This term, we will be running a site-wide plot involving a magical illness spreading throughout the school.

The effects of the illness are (up to) 3 bursts of accidental magic, followed by developing a high fever. Once the fever is cured, your character’s illness is finished, and they cannot catch it again.

This is a new illness, not seen before in the USA, so even if your character has grown up with magic, they won’t recognise the first symptoms (accidental magic) as indicating that they are ill. The fact that it is an illness will be worked out and solved via the staff and/or external agencies throughout the term - you just need to focus on your own character(s) and how they are affected.

In order to catch the disease, you need to have direct contact with a carrier. This means being in a thread with someone who has the disease. Being in the same class/house etc is not enough - you must post with them OR have a very close connection that means contact would be inevitable (e.g. roommates, your characters are dating etc).

After the opening feast, patient zero will identify themselves (they have been nominated and know who they are). If those who spoke to them choose, they can they can then catch the illness. If your character becomes infected, please post under here with their name AND the OOC week number they became infected. You can only catch the illness from someone after they’re infectious. If your character gets through all their symptoms and is no longer infectious, please also post this below.
