Organ decay

Organ decay is a rare, painful, and untreatable disease that causes increasingly reduced function in a particular organ, until destroying it completely. It is unknown what pathogen causes the illness.

Overview

Symptoms include pain and reduced part efficiency in the afflicted organ, as well as complications caused by the latter.

The disease cannot be treated with bed rest or medicine. Instead, it must be replaced entirely, either with a natural organ or an artificial one.

Organ decay will reach full saturation after 30 to 40 days. Accelerated organ decay, which appears on creepy joiners, will take only 10 to 20 days to reach maximum saturation.

Stages

Minor

• +5% Pain
• -10% Part efficiency

Moderate

• +10% Pain
• -25% Part efficiency

Severe

• +15% Pain
• -50% Part efficiency

Extreme

• +25% Pain
• -75% Part efficiency
• Complete loss of function at 1 severity.

Progression

Stages

If obtained by a disease event, it is detected immediately and starts at 0 severity. Severity increases over time, at a rate of 1.66% to 3.34% per day for normal organ decay, and at a rate of 5% to 10% for the accelerated version. Organ decay can appear as a downside on creepjoiners or duplicates, although it initially stays undiagnosed. After diagnosis, it starts at 0.02% to 15% severity.

• Minor - Severity: 0 - 0.199
• Moderate - Severity: 0.2 - 0.399
• Severe - Severity: 0.4 - 0.599
• Extreme - Severity: 0.6 - 0.999
• Loss of function - Severity: 1
