A virus, known as the Nosos virus has spread through the world of Sorineith, affecting many coatls. No one is sure where it hails from or how it started, but it originated somewhere in the plaguelands and they seem to have it the worst. We are calling it: The Nosos Effect.
1 The Nosos Effect
Aeschylus, Agamemnon 1001 ff (trans. Weir Smyth) (Greek tragedy C5th B.C.) :
"Truly blooming health (hygeia) does not rest content within its due bounds; for disease (nosos) ever presses close against it, its neighbor with a common wall. So human fortune, when holding onward in straight course strikes upon a hidden reef. [N.B. Hygeia and Nosos are scarcely personified in this passage.]
It is well known to many that when a coatl becomes sick it’s colors fade, and those born with these sickly colors are viewed negatively.

• Afflicted: Plague coatls are the only dragons who have the full-blown Nosos virus. Thus, they are also known as "The Afflicted”. They suffer from severe symptoms and pass on the Virus to their offspring.
• Blooming Afflicted: The Nosos virus can be contagious in Plague and those unfortunates who become infected with it are known as “Blooming Afflicted”. Only Plague coatls can contract the virus in Plague and they are easily recognized by their patchy and discolored plumage.
• Carriers: Coatls born infected with the virus outside of Plague territory (all other Flights) are Carriers of the disease. Any offspring they have will be Carriers as well. Their symptoms are often less severe than those of Afflicted or Blooming Afflicted.
• Omens: Omens are hatchlings born with sickly colors, like Carriers, but are not born with the Nosos virus in them. In fact, they are immune to the virus. They cannot be born in Plague. Breeding with an Afflicted or Carrier will, however, produce sick offspring.
• Mental Illness Awareness Afflicted: These Dergs represent Mental Illnesses, and suffer their represented color(based on awareness ribbons.)
We hope to bring awareness to these mental illnesses, I know many(like myself) can relate. Having one gives me a chance to express them inside one of my favorite things- a dragon! Helping him/her cope with it and work out how they fit into my clan is rather cathartic.
