Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

My question is about diseases.

My players have the opportunity to contract a disease at different times, each time has a different Fortitude save, though the damage is the same. (The first has a DC 15, the second has a DC 20).

Does this work like poisons in that the character needs to track these as two separate aflictions? If they contract both diseases (and assuming they fail the saves for both of them), do they take damage from each disease, or do they only take damage once?


Much like real life, if a character contracts tuberculosis on Wednesday, and then contracts gonorrhea on Thursday, both afflictions (and subsequently, their incubation periods, saving throws and ensuing damage) are independent of each other.
