So what with the mysterious black rot creeping up people's bodies and turning them violent and everything, Ethlyn is going to be working overtime searching for a cure!! Thankfully, there there is one to be had, but it's going to take some trial and error to devise.

To that end, Ethlyn is going to be looking for both help from anyone with medicinal knowledge and also test subjects for compounds and will be making this known with flyers around town etc. If you're interested in your character being one of the testers, please reply with what you want to happen:

1. Nothing really (bad or good)
   
2. Helpful to some degree (alleviating symptoms, slowing the progress)
   
3. oops we made it worse
   

Also let me know if you would like to handwave or thread out these encounters with medical experimentation! She's going to be trying both plants and the glowy crystals. Once she figures out the right mixture, she'll announce it to the network and make the cure free to anyone who needs it.

OH GOOD, this can be part of how she figures out that the medicinal plants are also being contaminated :') sorry Vash she will feel very bad about it.

rip... i'm so sorry i disappeared, my brain checked out fully for a bit from rp!

we're contacted on plurk now so would love to hash out things if you were still interested in this! also happy to thread this out in any way, can hit you up in ethlyn's inbox if you wanted :") thank you so much! <3

No worries, it happens! (as I can... attest.........) I think it's best to hash things out & handwave it at this point.

Ethlyn would have gotten contaminated plants after the contaminated snowfall. How about if Vash's unique physiology & his reaction to that helped her figure out what kind of ratio of rock powder-to-solute was the right one?
