Seeking some guidance because I cant find anything specific on the actual disease specifically from any sources. Below Is my best interpretation of the save and ongoing effects unless someone else can point me to the correct effects of the disease?
Type: Disease, Ingested
Save: Fortitude
DC: 14
Onset: 1d3 days
Frequency : 1/day
Effect: 1d2 Con damage
Cure: 2 consecutive saves (Herbal Remedies: Elderwood moss, Rat’s tail root, Ironbloom mushrooms)
From the Hallows Last Hope DM Guide its explained as thus:
Blackscour taint is an ingested disease
with an incubation period of 1d3 days. The
disease deals 1d2 points of Constitution
damage and is resisted with a DC 14 Forti-
tude save. Those who are infected develop
a hacking cough that quickly turns bloody
if the disease is allowed to progress.
For the first two days from the start
of the adventure, 1d4 townsfolk die from
blackscour taint every day. On the third
day, 2d4 townsfolk die, then 3d4 on the
fourth day, with the death toll increasing
an additional 1d4 every day until a total
of forty villagers have perished. If the PCs
have acquaintances or loved ones afflicted
by blackscour taint (and who lack full NPC
statistics), roll 4d10 for each noteworthy
relation. If the PCs do not return to town
with a cure for the disease by the time the
death toll reaches the NPC’s number, the
specified character dies.
Once forty townsfolk die from blacks-
cour taint, the malady has run its course,
killing all those unable to overcome the
disease on their own. If the
PCs take up the search for a cure and fail to
return to Falcon’s Hollow by this time, they
are widely shunned and blamed by many
for the deaths of their loved ones.
