Bluepox is a Pyandonean disease inflicted by a species of native wildlife. Members of this species secrete a toxic substance in their mouth which spreads the disease. The substance is sometimes harvested by local Maormer as an instrument of war, but it requires magical enhancement to keep its effectiveness on long journies.
Aside from the blue spots of pox which give the disease its name, almost all victims experience seizures. Severity increases gradually; in the worst cases, the victim can be completely incapacitated by full-body spasms. Finally, sufferers exhibit a heightened sensitivity to electric shocks.
The disease can be cured through typical means, but if cures are unavailable I do know of a few ways to minimize the symptoms. The first priority should be to remove the victim from anything dangerous they could flail into. Bedrest should be encouraged if possible. Alternatively, a weak paralysis effect can be used to prevent the seizures. In extreme cases, physically binding the victim's limbs to their body and supporting their head with something soft will prevent the disease's worst effects.
