Add communicable diseases

Surprised this isn't a mechanic yet.

You should be able to catch diseases from animals and other players, ranging from minor to life-threatening. Would add more variety/challenge to the game IMO

Imagine there's word of an epidemic in X realm. Now villages in other realms have to be extra careful when vetting applicants from that realm to ensure they won't bring the plague with them

This could also make the hunter/herder experience more challenging since now you have to check if an animal looks healthy or not before killing/processing them

We'd probably also have to get more medicines and other medical items added to the game (masks?). I feel right now medicine is sorely underdeveloped

This would be abused by what would be "Slave Bombing"/suicide slaves running into and hanging around villages and the like. Too much grief application.

"Why raid when I can infect an alt and keep infecting new alts until this village is dead or griefed enough to move out?"

No Thank You

Imagine when spruce caps decide to troll factions in the same way. :kappa:

+1 we can buy a 'plague mask' from the shop, thus increasing revenue for the devs.

the plague mask removes the chance to get sick and covers the face like any other mask

Sounds goodI agree!. Also return old swamp aids (before nerf) and make it for every biome.
