DROW SPELLS
immediately exposed to one or more virulent diseases
each round. Roll 1d12 and consult the proceeding
chart.
The exact effects and base save DCs of the above
diseases can be found in the appendix of Core Rulebook
II. The bolstering power of magic makes these diseases
much more lethal; add the spell’s level to the disease’s
base save to determine the actual save DC.
For the purposes of transmission, the diseases carried by
pestilence are considered to be inhaled, meaning those
who do not breathe or can successfully hold their breath
for the spell’s duration do not risk infection. Likewise,
there is no incubation period for diseases transmitted
via the spell, so all effects are instantaneous.
Beings which are immune to magical diseases are
likewise immune to this spell, and pestilence has no
effect on undead, constructs or on plant creatures.

diseases. Each round any living being remains within
the area of effect, he must roll twice on the following
table.

diseases can be found in the appendix of Core Rulebook
II. The bolstering power of magic makes these diseases
much more lethal; add the spell’s level to the disease’s
base save to determine the actual save DC.
The plague spell is far more insidious than pestilence.
For the length of the spell’s duration, and for 1d4 rounds
after, any being who comes within 5 feet of a being who
spent at least one round within the spell’s radius must
also save against disease, as though he himself had
entered the spell’s area of effect; saves are attempted
against the disease’s normal DC (meaning the spell’s
