Memory Plague

Symptoms
Anyone struck by this illness experiences a fever and weakness until they slowly begin to lose the memories that make them whole: first childhood, then further on. After a while, the afflicted can’t remember their names or take care of themselves.

History
The last known major outbreak of the Memory Plague happened many years before the first meeting of the Pog Champions, and most of the party was unaware of its existence before Grinlief Dartson mentioned it to Kilwin. The party learned from Natasha Vizini that it wiped out half of a village on the other side of the continent from Vila's Watch. Jorah, who was not present during these conversations, has since mentioned having some personal experience with the Memory Plague, but was reluctant to talk about it in more detail at the time.
