Qetesh Swamp Fever is a disease that occurs to people lost in the swamplands on Qetesh. It is caused by the mix of gasses prevalent in the swamps. It is very dangerous to foreigners as it disorients travellers and could potentially lead to people never returning from the swamps.

Double vision and inattention generally start within a few hours, but not necessarily at the same time. After the initial onset, double vision tends to become seemingly random and infrequent. Around this time a sore tongue is experienced by the vast majority of people.

The experience of a sore tongue may be less severe in combination with the experience of inattention.

After a few more days confusion is experienced by 50% of people and is usually experienced in the evening. Throughout the course of the disease, shoulder pain may be experienced, but only in rare cases and is usually only experienced faintly.

Treatment: Untreatable.
