I am playing an OC who, during the course of her story, became corrupted by the blood of a "goddess" (who actually wasn't really a deity but, rather, a mortal who became shackled to the world and took on its decay). In waking, she basically finds herself cursed, and during the story has to live with horrible nightmares (dreams of what were/could be) that make no sense, coughing up blood/ichor, and feeling empathetic pains from the world that is dying and from people in pain.
As I want to AU her, I wanted to see if you had ideas about how that could translate better. I've talked to a current player here who gave the idea that she could have been cursed in battle (possibly with dragon blood? but wasn't sure) and then died. I wasn't sure what the effects of corruption/curse would look like in-game as I kind of want to largely leave it up to you/events/effects of things going forward and roll with it! Just wanted to get some ideas or some guidance on how all of that would work. Thanks!
