* From my (unfortunate) recent in-game testing, it seems to be each time you are hit. I.e. First hit = 20 - (19+Con) turns, second hit makes that amount 1/3 (between about 6 and 6 + (1/3 * Con)), the third hit (that got me in the end) was between 2 and 2 + (1/9 * Con) - I died after approximately 5 turns, 3 with disease attacks (according to the almighty Ctrl+P).

It's Werebane, though lycanthropy isn't strictly the same thing as Disease. --Jayt 09:59, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Ambiguity

Are the turns to live divided by three when you are hit while already diseased? Or are turns to live, in general, divided by three each time you contract the disease? 206.116.28.142 02:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
