Enigmundia: War of Plagues

A quick idea I had after listening to the recent "Ken & Robin Talk About Stuff" Podcast involves the cause of the holocaust in the semi-default post-holocaust fantasy world implied by D&D.

It involves a War of Plagues. Future posts will detail some of those plagues, but the snatches of idea that came to me:

• mysterious plague doctors appearing at the time of an outbreak
• plague(s) responsible for decimating or wiping out intelligent, highly advanced races or cultures (like the multitude of elf subraces)
• plague memory responsible for the isolationist stances of some races and cultures
• plague zombies are one of the feared plagues
• caused heal & cure spells becoming so prevalent with clerics 
• prompted mass potion creation for same spells 
• returning to civilization still requires a benediction and cleansing by clerics (and a tax / fee)

That's all for now. More to come.
