A '''syndrome''' is an acquired trait a hapless creature might get through encountering certain creatures or extracts. They generally cause unpleasant or even fatal effects on creatures over varying time scales, and will usually clear up on their own eventually. A {{L|Hospital}} may be able to diagnosis and prescribe treatment to help a dorf deal with illness.

A '''syndrome''' is a disease or effect that a poor hapless creature might get through encountering certain creatures, extracts or vindictive modders. They generally cause unpleasant and frequently fatal [[symptoms]] over a short to long period of time, but some will clear up over time or with the assistance of a [[doctor]].  A [[Hospital]] is required to diagnose and potentially treat the syndrome. [[File:Snakebite.png|200px|thumb|right|An example of a syndrome in effect. This hippo did not ultimately survive the encounter despite one bite being the only injury sustained.]]

==The anatomy of a syndrome==
+
===Blob Blisters===
−
Mechanically, syndromes are bundles of tokens attached to a material - they're confined to creature materials in vanilla DF, but it's a simple matter to add them to inorganic materials.  When the material is injected, touched or inhaled (depending on the syndrome), the creature suffers the predations of a nasty disease or poison.  Here's an example syndrome, taken from the Giant Cave Spider raws.
+
'''Acquired''': Direct skin contact with a {{L|Cave Blob}}
  
−
If you are having troubles getting the syndromes to work (ie, in combat reports, getting "'''supersnake''' n/a splatters~etc"), then simply throw the venom template into the actual creature's raw, which is what the LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT actually calls on; the venom being in the same file.
+
'''Long Term Symptoms''':
 +
*Mild Pain
 +
*Mild Blisters
  
−
    [USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:POISON:CREATURE_EXTRACT_TEMPLATE]
 
−
        [STATE_NAME:ALL_SOLID:frozen giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [STATE_ADJ:ALL_SOLID:frozen giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [STATE_NAME:LIQUID:giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [STATE_ADJ:LIQUID:giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [STATE_NAME:GAS:boiling giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [STATE_ADJ:GAS:boiling giant cave spider venom]
 
−
        [PREFIX:NONE]
 
−
        [ENTERS_BLOOD]
 
−
        [SYNDROME]
 
−
            [SYN_NAME:giant cave spider bite]
 
−
            [SYN_AFFECTED_CLASS:GENERAL_POISON]
 
−
            [SYN_IMMUNE_CREATURE:SPIDER_CAVE:ALL]
 
−
            [SYN_INJECTED]
 
−
            [CE_PARALYSIS:SEV:100:PROB:100:RESISTABLE:SIZE_DILUTES:START:5:PEAK:10:END:20]
 
  
−
The first line, USE_MATERIAL_TEMPLATE, is creating a new material, called POISON, using the CREATURE_EXTRACT_TEMPLATE as the basis.  After this, the STATE_NAME and STATE_ADJ tokens are used to define the names and adjectives assigned to different states of the material - GAS, LIQUID and ALL_SOLID, in this case, though ALL is also a valid token.  At this stage, you can use any material tags like MAT_FIXED_TEMP or similar to set further material properties, though this usually isn't necessary.
+
===Cave Floater Sickness===
 +
'''Acquired''': Expelled from a {{L|Cave Floater}} both in defense and if punctured.
  
−
  ENTERS_BLOOD
+
'''Short Term Symptoms''':
−
This tag determines whether a poison enters the blood or not. If it is not included, the poison will splatter (if liquid) or flow (if gas) over the affected body part instead when injected. If you're using a contact poison, leave this out. Necessary for injected poisons.
+
*Mild Nausea
−
  SYNDROME
+
'''Long Term Symptoms''':
−
This tag ends the material details and begins the definition of the actual syndrome.
+
*Fever
−
  SYN_NAME
+
'''Delayed Long Term Symptoms''':
−
This one is self-explanatory - the name of the syndrome as it will appear in-game.
+
* Strong Drowsiness
−
  SYN_AFFECTED_CLASS
+
* Strong Dizziness
−
This token defines what CREATURE_CLASS will be affected by the syndrome.  Most creatures are classed under GENERAL_POISON.  Multiple tokens can be used in a single syndrome.
 
−
  SYN_IMMUNE_CLASS
 
−
As above, but makes class immune.
 
−
  SYN_IMMUNE_CREATURE
 
−
This token defines which creatures CANNOT be affected by the syndrome - useful for addressing specific instances within a population, such as a specific caste or an individual creature that falls under GENERAL_POISON. Syntax is [SYN_IMMUNE_CREATURE:creature:caste]. ALL can be used for the caste.
 
−
  SYN_AFFECTED_CREATURE
 
−
As above, but makes creature or caste susceptible.
 
  
−
  SYN_INJECTED, SYN_CONTACT, SYN_INHALED
 
−
This token determines the method of infection - injected syndromes must be injected via a creature attack, while contact syndromes result from any contamination of a creature by material splatter (such as blood) and inhaled syndromes must be inhaled in gaseous form, such as from boiling or a creature breath attack.  Any combination of these tags can be used.  A fun variation on the usual creature injection routine is to create a material with a SYN_CONTACT syndrome and have a creature use it for blood - this tends to end poorly for any predator that chooses to attack them.
 
  
 +
===Cave Spider Bite===
 +
'''Acquired''': Being Bitten by a {{L|Cave Spider}}
  
−
  [SPECIALATTACK_INJECT_EXTRACT:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:VENOM:LIQUID:100:100]
+
'''Chronic Symptoms''':
−
This is one method for getting a poison into a creature. If [ENTERS_BLOOD] is applied, it will be injected into the bloodstream. Otherwise, it will just splatter over the area. Put this on a creature attack. Substance type (gas, liquid, solid) does not appear to have an effect. The numbers on the end are minimum and maximum.
+
*Very mild dizziness
  
  
−
CE_X, or creature effect tokens, are the real meat and bones of your syndrome.  They're detailed below.
+
===Giant Cave Spider Bite===
 +
'''Acquired''': Being bitten by a {{L|Giant Cave Spider}}
  
−
==Creature effect tokens==
+
'''Short Term Symptoms''':
−
Each and every syndrome has a number of creature effect tokens, represented by CE_X - these lovely little beauties determine exactly how the poor creature suffering from the syndrome is affected. An example CE token is as follows:
+
*Complete paralysis (this by itself is harmless... now the spider on the other hand...)
  
−
  [CE_NECROSIS:SEV:100:PROB:100:LOCALIZED:VASCULAR_ONLY:RESISTABLE:START:50:PEAK:1000:END:2000]
 
  
 +
===Gnomeblight===
 +
'''Acquired''': Inhaled, injected, or contact with the extract ({L|Gnomeblight}}... but only if you happen to be a {{L|Mountain Gnome}} or a {{L|Dark Gnome}}.
  
−
In this example, we have an effect that will always cause severe necrosis in whichever bodypart it touches, so long as that bodypart is vascular and that the creature is not able to resist it in some manner.  The effect begins shortly after the syndrome is contracted, peaks 1000 [[time|time units]] afterwards, and finally ceases another 1000 time units later.
+
'''Long Term Symptoms''':
 +
*Severe systemic necrosis (This is a death sentence)
  
−
As a general rule of thumb, so long as CE_X starts the string and START/PEAK/END end it, the order of the intervening tokens isn't important.
 
  
−
*CE_X
+
===Giant Desert Scorpion Sting===
−
The effect type.  This can be a number of different tokens, as detailed in the table below this list.
+
'''Acquired''': Being stung by a {{L|Giant Desert Scorpion}}
−
*SEV:X
 
−
The severity of the effect.  Higher values appear to be worse, with SEV:1000 CE_NECROSIS causing a part to near-instantly become rotten.
 
−
*PROB:X
 
−
The probability of the effect actually manifesting in the victim, as a percentage.  100 means always, 1 means a 1 in 100 chance.
 
−
*LOCALIZED (Overwrites BP tokens)
 
−
This tag causes an effect to ignore all BP tokens and then forces the game to attempt to apply the effect to the limb that came into contact with the contagion - ie. the part that was bitten by the creature injecting the syndrome material, or the one that was splattered by a contact contagion. If an effect can not be applied to the contacted limb (i.e. IMPAIR_FUNCTION on a non-organ) then this token makes the syndrome have no effect. This token also makes inhaled syndromes have no effect.
 
−
*BP:BODY_PART:TISSUE (Overwritten by LOCALIZED)
 
−
Specifies which body parts and tissues are to be affected by the syndrome. BODY_PART can be BY_CATEGORY:x to target body parts with a matching [CATEGORY:x] [[body token]] (or ALL to affect everything), BY_TYPE:x to target body parts having a particular type (UPPERBODY, LOWERBODY, HEAD, GRASP, or STANCE), or BY_TOKEN:x to target individual body parts by their ID (as specified in the [BP] token). For example, if you wanted to target the lungs of a creature, you would use BP:BY_CATEGORY:LUNG:ALL.  The syndrome would act on all bodyparts within the creature with the CATEGORY tag LUNG and affect all tissue layers.  For another example, say you wanted to cause the skin to rot off a creature - you could use BP:BY_CATEGORY:ALL:SKIN, targeting the SKIN tissue on all bodyparts. Multiple targets can be given in one syndrome by placing the BP tokens end to end. This is one of the most powerful and useful aspects of the syndrome system, as it allows you to selectively target bodyparts relevant to the contagion, like lungs for coal dust inhalation, or the eyes for exposure to an acid gas. Not everything takes a target!
 
−
*VASCULAR_ONLY (Optional)
 
−
This syndrome only affects tissue layers with the VASCULAR token.
 
−
*MUSCULAR_ONLY (Optional)
 
−
This syndrome only affects tissue layers with the MUSCULAR token.  Are you seeing a trend here?
 
−
*SIZE_DILUTES (Optional)
 
−
This token presumably causes the effects of the syndrome to scale with the size of the creature compared to the size of the dose of contagion they received, but has yet to be extensively tested.
 
−
*SIZE_DELAYS (Optional)
 
−
As above, this token has yet to be tested but presumably delays the onset of a syndrome according to the size of the victim.
 
  
−
The details of this table are still being thrashed out by modders, so if you have anything to add, please don't hesitate to hit the edit button!
+
'''Long Term Symptoms''':
 +
*Intense necrosis of the nervous system (causing permanent paralysis)
  
−
Non-targeted syndromes will ignore any BP tokens and LOCALIZED tokens.

−
| CE_IMPAIR_FUNCTION
 
−
| Yes
 
−
| An organ afflicted with this CE is rendered inoperable - for example, if both lungs are impaired the creature can't breathe and will suffocate.  This token only affects organs, not limbs.
 
−
|-
 
−
| CE_NECROSIS
 
−
| Yes
 
−
| Causes the targeted bodypart to rot, with associated tissue damage and miasma.  Badly necrotic limbs will require amputation and heavy rot will eventually result in bleeding.  Necrosis has some strange behavior involving bleeding to death that isn't fully understood; a 100% necrotic creature can survive fine with no non-yellow bodyparts but will die of bleeding as soon as they end a round of combat, even if they never take a hit. Because of this, fairly useless unless targeting the lungs or eyes.
 
−
|-
 
−
| CE_NUMBNESS
 
−

==Inorganic syndromes and you!==
+
===Helmet Snake Bite===
−
It's perfectly possible - and quite simple - to add a nasty syndrome to a type of rock or metal - you simply add the syndrome tokens to the material definition in the same manner that you would add them to a creature material definition.  The only catch is that since your hapless dwarves will only normally encounter the material in metal, gem or boulder form, a bit of creativity must be used to actually get them inside your citizens - that is, you need to make them 'explosively boil' as soon as they're mined or produced.  This has the sad side effect of destroying the actual item - sorry, no highly radioactive uranium this release.
+
'''Acquired''': Being bitten by a {{L|Helmet Snake}}.
  
−
The easiest way to accomplish this is to assign the material a low boiling point, usually just under room temperature, and make sure its temperature is fixed to a point above it.
+
'''Short Term Symptoms''':
−
  [MAT_FIXED_TEMP:9001]
+
*Minor Bleeding
−
  [BOILING_POINT:9000]
+
'''Long Term Symptoms''':
−
Now, as soon as this substance hits the open air - by being mined, smelted or reaction-produced at a custom workshop - it will EXPLOSIVELY BOIL, flooding a small area with delicious syndrome-rich gas.  Creatures who inhale the gas will be immediately hit with the syndrome you thoughtfully attached to the material definition earlier!
+
*Fever
 +
*Nausea
 +
*Dizziness
 +
*Localized intense swelling, oozing, and bruising of the wound
 +
*Strong pain
 +
*Intense localized necrosis (loss of limb possible)
  
−
There are a number of other tokens you can use to control the colour and naming conventions of your syndrome material, referred to as MATERIAL tokens.
 
  
−
==Breath attacks==
+
===Iron Man Cough===
−
If you want to really make a creature deadly, you can give it a breath attack to shoot your neurotoxin at your hapless dwarves from range. Some of these attacks have the unfortunate side effect of preventing a critter from using its regular attacks unless the enemy is ''on the same tile.'' You decide if it's worth it.
+
'''Acquired''': Expelled by {{L|Iron Man}}
  
−
To use a breath attack, place something like the following anywhere in your creature entry:
+
'''Short Term Symptoms''':
 +
*Severe cough
 +
*Bleeding (from the cough)
  
−
  [MATERIAL_BREATH_ATTACK:LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:SPITTER_SPIT:SOLID_GLOB]
 
  
−
The LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT:SPITTER_SPIT refers to the material the breath attack will be made of - in this case, it is another material defined within the creature entry.
+
===Serpent Man Bite===
 +
'''Acquired''': Being bitten by a {{L|Serpent Man}}
  
−

−
| TRAILING_GAS_FLOW
 
−
| Shoots a trail of gas substance at the creature. Fairly easy to dodge. Creature will attack as normal.
 
−
|-
 
−
| TRAILING_VAPOR_FLOW
 
−
| Similar to the trailing gas, but easier to breathe in, and condensed, so it will collect on creatures. Creature will attack as normal.
 
−
|-
 
−
| TRAILING_DUST_FLOW
 
−
| Lets out a cloud of solid dust. Appears to use cave-in dust physics, causing this to fling around anything it comes in contact with, making it capable of smashing creatures into the ground and flinging them over walls. Creature will attack as normal.
 
−
|-
 
−
| SOLID_GLOB
 
−
| Shoots a solid glob of spinning substance at the creature, leaving symbols similar to broken arrows. Essentially a projectile weapon. Some creatures with this breath attack will not move, preferring instead to stay and shoot globs at you, even when you are literally right next to them.
 
−
|-
 
−
| LIQUID_GLOB
 
−
| Shoots a '''liquid''' glob of spinning substance at the creature. Essentially the same as SOLID_GLOB. May do less damage.
 
−
|-
 
−
| UNDIRECTED_GAS
 
−
| Creature occasionally releases a cloud of substance. Similar to TRAILING_GAS_FLOW, but undirected, thus affecting a larger area but losing the distance. Creature will attack as normal.

|-
 
−
| UNDIRECTED_DUST
 
−
| Creature occasionally releases a large cloud of substance, which will spread and dissipate. Similar to TRAILING_DUST_FLOW, but undirected, thus affecting a larger area but losing the distance - range is roughly the same as that of a cave-in. Creature will attack as normal. <s>DO NOT USE THIS TAG UNLESS YOU WANT TO KILL THE CREATURE AND EVERYTHING NEAR IT AND SEND PEOPLE FLYING.</s> You know you want to.
 
−
|}
 
−
 
 
−
