## RAKGHOUL PLAGUE
The rakghoul plague or rakghoul disease was a disease engineered by the ancient Sith Lord Karness Muur. Muur, seeking a means to escape death and achieve galactic conquest, forged a Sith amulet that came to be known as the Muur Talisman, an item into which Muur poured his mind, will, and Sith magic.

The Muur Talisman's power could almost instantaneously turn any nearby sentient being into a mindless rakghoul, a Sith-spawned mutant subservient to Muur's will. But the talisman's power was not perfect, and it could not transform Force-sensitives or beings belonging to certain non-Human species into rakghouls, and thus Muur designed the rakghoul plague to compensate for this weakness.

The virus-like plague, carried by every rakghoul in existence at the time, could be spread to another being by a bite or a scratch from a rakghoul's claw. The victim would then suffer through an incubation period lasting approximately six to forty-eight hours before being transformed into a rakghoul, one fully capable of spreading the Sith-made disease on to further victims.

### A Deadlier Virus
FOR GMs looking for a more realistic, but potentially survivable Rakghoul Plague, this variant rule offers a series of Stages of Infection to run for a character or creature who is infected by a Rakghoul with the Rakghoul Plague, as per the Rakghoul stat block found in Scum and Villainy.

As a tip for GMs, remember that curing the Rakghoul Plague is incredibly difficult, not just because of the virility of the virus, but because of its origins in Sith Sorcery. Powers such as Restoration are unlikely to have any great success stopping the virus. Only truly powerful force powers or rare vaccine serums would be likely to truly succeed. Consider how such cures would exist in your world, and how your players could go about attaining them should they fall prey to the plague.

### STAGES OF INFECTION

#### STAGE I: INCUBATION 
When a creature is infected with the Rakghoul Plague, roll a 1d4. For a number of hours equal to the number rolled, there are no symptoms. At the end of this time, the creature must make a new saving throw against the plague, the DC for which is equal to the original infection saving throw. On a success, the disease doesn’t progress and remains asymptomatic for another 1d4 hours before the creature must repeat this saving throw.

#### STAGE II: POISONED 
Once an infected creature fails the Stage I saving throw, it becomes symptomatic. The creature is poisoned. Roll another d4. At the end of another number of hours equal to the number rolled, it must succeed on another saving throw or advance to Stage III. On a success, the creature must reroll the saving throw after another 1d4 hours.

#### STAGE III: VIRULENCE 
At this stage, the creature is still poisoned, and takes on a noticeably sickly appearance; its eyes turn a yellowish-green, its breath turns foul, and its skin takes on a pale, corpse-like pigmentation.

Additionally, once per round the creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw save. On a failed save, the creature spends its action that turn retching and reeling in place. This effect cannot occur more than once per minute.

Lastly, if the creature drops to 0 hit points at any time while at this stage, it immediately dies and resurrects after 1d4 minutes as a rakghoul.

At the end of another 1d4 hours, the creature must succeed on a new infection saving throw or advance to the next stage of infection. On a success, the creature must reroll the saving throw after another 1d4 hours.

#### STAGE IV: BLIGHTED
A creature at Stage IV retains the effects of Stages II and III, and starts losing control. Once per turn when it attempts to make an attack roll or cast a power, it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or go into a blind rage. On a failed save, the creature loses the ability to distinguish friend from foe, regarding all creatures it can see as enemies. Whenever the affected creature chooses another creature as a target, it must choose the target at random from among the creatures it can see within range of the attack, power, or other ability it’s using. If an enemy provokes an opportunity attack from the affected creature, the creature must make that attack if it is able to.

At the end of another 1d4 hours, the creature must succeed on a new infection saving throw or advance to the final stage of infection. On a success, the creature must reroll the saving throw after another 1d4 hours.

#### STAGE V: TRANSMOGRIFICATION: 
At the final stage of infection, the creature's appearance twists further, taking on a more gaunt and angular visage. Blood begins to leak from its orifices, and its eyes turn black. Once per hour while at this stage, the creature's hit point maximum is reduced by 10. Once the creature reaches 0 hit points, it must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC 10 + 1 for each hour spent at Stage V), immediately transforming into a rakghoul on a failed save. On a success, it regains 1 hit point. If its hit point maximum has been reduced, it increases by 1.

## Vaccines and Inoculations
Since the earliest days of the first outbreak of the Rakghoul virus, attempts to discover a cure or vaccine for it have persisted. Despite centuries of effort, an official, publicly available, highly-effective inoculation has eluded the galaxy.

That is not to say that there have not been successes. During the time of the Old Republic, rumors existed that the former-Sith Lord Revan aided in the creation of a serum that cured infected on the planet Taris shortly before its orbital bombardment.

Several hundred years after that, during the Galactic War between the Republic and the resurgent Sith Empire, a galaxy-wide outbreak pushed entire planets into quarantine. The Hyland Organization for Rakghoul Neutralization - or, T.H.O.R.N. - spearheaded the efforts against the virus, and successfully employed a short-term vaccine among its agents to inoculate them against the effects of the plague while combating ghouls in the underground tunnels of Alderaan and Tatooine. And many thousands of years later, Jedi Cade Skywalker managed to use a unique force ability to heal himself of infection.

The virus is pernicious and persistant, however, and even at times when vaccines did exist in some limited capacity, they were expensive for the average person and in short supply. For GM's considering introducing the Rakghoul Plague into your game world, consider when your game takes place and whether or not any such cure is available in it.

#### Rakghoul Inoculation
***Consumable** (medical), **prototype***

This syringe holds cloudy, purple liquid that bears a foul, sulfuric smell. You can use an action to administer the inoculation to a creature within 5 feet. When you administer this inoculation, the creature has advantage on saving throws made to resist the rakghoul plague for 1 hour. A creature can benefit from only one inoculation at a time.

#### Rakghoul Pheromones
***Consumable** (medical), **premium***

This concoction of foul-smelling formula contains a mixture of collected rakghoul secretions, bile, waste, and sweat alongside an activating enzyme. As an action, you can administer these pheromones to a creature within 5 feet. When you administer these pheromones, the creature has advantage on all Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to avoid detection by rakghouls, and all Charisma checks to interact with them.

Additionally, rakghouls that come within 10 feet of the creature must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or become charmed by the creature. While charmed in this way, the rakghoul regards the creature as friendly. This effect ends after 10 minutes, or the creature or its allies attack the rakghoul.

#### Rakghoul Serum
***Consumable** (medical), **artifact***

This syringe holds 1d3 uses of translucent, vibrant purple liquid that bears a purified, alcoholic smell. You can use an action to administer the serum to a creature within 5 feet. When you administer this serum, the creature becomes immune to the rakghoul plague. A creature currently infected with the plague is immediately cured.

A rakghoul injected with this serum must make a Constitution saving throw with a DC equal to 10 + 1 for every 10 current hit points it has. (For example, a creature with 50 current hit points must pass a DC of 15.) On a success, the creature is cured, falls unconscious, and reverts back to its original form in 1d4 hours. On a failure, the creature is not cured and is immune to rakghoul serum for 24 hours.

#### Rakghoul Vaccine
***Consumable** (medical), **advanced***

This syringe holds 1d3 uses of hazy, swirling purple liquid that bears a waxy, copper smell. You can use an action to administer the vaccine to a creature within 5 feet. When you administer this vaccine, the creature gains immunity to rakghoul plague for 24 hours. A creature currently infected with the plague is immediately cured.

Each time a creature immunized by this vaccine would make a saving throw against being infected with the rakghoul plague, there is a 15% chance the vaccine is broken down in the bloodstream, ending its effects immediately after that contact, but not before protecting the creature. This chance increases by 5% for each successive instance of contact with the plague. On a failed roll, the creature is not aware the vaccine has broken down.

#### Rakghoul Viral Inhibitor
***Consumable** (medical), **premium***

This syringe holds 1d3 uses of murky, darkly purple liquid that bears a waxy, copper smell. You can use an action to administer the inhibitor to a creature within 5 feet. When you administer this inhibitor to a creature infected with rakghoul plague, the effects of the plague are subdued for a number of hours equal to 1d4 + the creature's Constitution modifier. Whenever the creature would roll an infection saving throw against advancing to the next stage of infection while under the effects of this inhibitor, the roll is an automatic success.

>
> ***Ultimate Mutation.*** The Eyeless is the peak of rakghoul mutation. Once per round when a creature infected with the rakghoul plague enters the area within 30 feet of the Eyeless for the first time, it must roll its saving throw against the Plague or immediately advance to the next stage of infection.
> ### Actions
> ***Multiattack.*** The Eyeless uses its Infected Phlegm, then uses its Crush if available, or makes three slam attacks.
>
> ***Slam.*** *Melee Weapon Attack:* +15 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. *Hit:* 21 (3d8+8) kinetic damage. If the target is a humanoid creature, it must succeed on a DC 18 Constitution saving throw or become infected with the Rakghoul Plague.

Each creature within a 15-foot radius of the Eyeless must make a DC 20 Strength saving throw, taking 42 (12d6) kinetic damage on a failed save and falling prone. On a success, a creature takes half damage and doesn't fall prone.
>
> ***Infected Phlegm.*** The Eyeless spits out a deluge of sickly green mucus at three points of its choice within 60 feet of it, each splashing down in a 10-foot radius around the point. Each creature in an affected area must succeed on a DC 17 Dexterity saving throw or take 10 (3d6) acid damage and be coated in slime. A creature coated in this slime gains one level of the slowed condition, and when it makes a saving throw, it must roll a d4 and subtract the number rolled from the total. For each coating of slime affecting a creature, it gains an additional level of slowed and the d4 roll increases by 1d4. On a successful save, a creature takes half damage and isn't slimed. A creature may repeat the saving throw at the end of their turn, ending the effect on a success. A creature in the area of more than one deluge of mucus is only affected once. A creature affected by three coatings of slime is automatically infected with Rakghoul Plague.
> ### Legendary Actions

>
> ***Move.*** The Eyeless moves up to its speed.
>
> ***Stomp.*** The Eyeless makes one Slam attack.
>
> ***Summon Rakghouls (2 Actions).*** The Eyeless lets forth a bellowing roar, calling forth 1d4+2 rakghouls in the area, which appear in any unoccupied spaces within 15 feet of the Eyeless.
