Talk:Three Plagues

Shaking Plague versus Shaking Fever
So the Scardale article claims that the plague which ravaged the Sembian garrison was the Shaking Plague; the article cites no sourcebook references but may be supported by Volo's Guide to the Dalelands (pg. 196). However, the Power of Faerûn sourcebook specifies that the plague which struck Scardale was the Shaking Fever — not the Shaking Plague — and that the two diseases are indeed two separate diseases. How should this be addressed or corrected? BloodyBay from YouTube (talk) 16:42, June 22, 2017 (UTC)


 * It's odd, both the FRCS3e and the Volo's Guide call the disease that hit Scardale "shaking plague" (and it also hit Calimport). There was no shaking fever. Yet Power of Faerûn made this completely unnecessary retcon. Unless a later source undoes it, we'd need a shaking plague article and a shaking fever article, each with a note discussing the retcon and confusion in names. Presumably the Scardale shaking sickness was misidentified. — BadCatMan (talk) 11:28, June 23, 2017 (UTC)
