A fun class to read about that captures all the imagery that the author was aiming for. It plays around in unique spaces like making your own disease and a special focus on persistent damage, both of which I think is super neat. The Subclasses, aka the types of parasite you can take, are somewhat cosmetic, but have their own distinct playstyles. Though the Divine one seems to be a bit stronger than the other two since it can affect undead (which makes sense for a Divine plague), as well as having easy access to healing. The class seems well balanced, and the Contagion has been fun to mix and match, thinking of what the best disease is for a given situation, with the chance to debuff so your casters can get a shot off or even the ability to chunk a dude with massive damage. The class has clear limits, but in the times ive had to play it has been fun. I'd love to see more.
