In Dungeons & Dragons, a Plague Victim is typically an NPC or a creature that has been severely affected by a disease or plague. This condition often represents a debilitating state where the individual suffers from the ravages of a sickness, manifesting in various physical and mental symptoms. In many campaign settings, Plague Victims are common in regions hit by widespread contagion or in areas suffering from unnatural curses. The appearance of a Plague Victim may include pale, feverish skin, swollen limbs, and pustules or boils, depending on the severity of the illness.

A Plague Victim might be part of a quest or encounter, often serving as a source of disease or a tragic figure in the story. They may spread infection, either unknowingly or as part of a larger epidemic, making them a significant threat to adventurers. The victim's appearance and behavior can vary: some may be bedridden and weak, while others might have become aggressive, driven by feverish delusion or the corrupting influence of the disease. In some cases, a Plague Victim may not be an enemy at all, but a figure to be saved, with players having to find a cure or antidote to save them.

From a mechanical perspective, the effects of the plague on a victim can range from mild to severe, potentially imposing penalties on their health, movement, or mental state. In some situations, a Plague Victim could be under the influence of a more sinister force, such as a necromantic curse or a divine plague sent as punishment, adding a layer of intrigue or danger to the situation. For adventurers, dealing with Plague Victims requires careful decision-making, as curing the disease might be just as dangerous as confronting it directly.
