Aug 05, 2004 7:28:40 I know that this question was touched upon in an older thread but I can't seem to find it. My apologies.

The disease that is effecting the elves of Pashin is contracted thru contact with another inflicted elf. This I understand. I currently have an elf in the party I DM for.

My issue is when the PC elf eventually meets with the elves in the sewers will he only contract the disease if he clearly states he makes contact with one of the elves there or just simply being around them? Or should I assume that he would have made contact with one of the diseased elves during his stay?

Any insight would be helpful.

Aug 05, 2004 7:36:49 I believe "contact", in the context of this adventure, is defined as spending more than 18 hours in close proximity to them.

If your PC meets the above, or he comes into closer (read: intimate) contact with one of them, then said PC will need to make the Fortitude save listed.

Each day of contact or issue of intimacy calls for a new Fort save at the next step up the difficulty ladder.

Where did you get the "18 hour" number. I was looking for a bit more info on the "contact" in the module the other day and couldn't find anything more descriptive than what Sysane said above.

I wouldn't know, all my elven players made the save (Thank the gods).
