Your body is falling apart. A curse, disease, flawed biotech, corrupting magicks, or some other affliction is rotting your physical form, and although Life magick can repair the damage to some degree, this degeneration remains permanent unless the Flaw is somehow removed.

In its three-point variation, this Flaw reflects an inability to heal injuries without the aid of magick or medical technology. Until treated by Life Sphere Effects or medical intervention, the character cannot recover heath levels lost to injury, disease or other factors.

At the six-point level, the character suffers a constant stream of injuries even without outside trauma. Whenever he’s at full Health, that character loses one health level every two weeks until he is either healed or he dies. As described above, he cannot heal on his own.

At the nine-point level, that Health loss is essentially ag­ gravated damage, and cannot be healed except through vulgar Life-Sphere Effects.

Obviously, this Flaw is meaningless in one-shots or short-duration games. It should be taken only by characters (and players) involved in long-term chronicles.
