The Temples Plague was a disease that struck Calimshan and Tashalar in the Year of Frenzied Tempests, −676 DR.[1]

Acquisition[]

The disease was spread via touch with an infected individual, even if they were unaware that they were infected.[1]

Effects[]

It caused fever and accumulation of fluid in the lungs.[1]

History[]

The disease was concentrated in Almraiven, Calimport, and the cities of Tashalar. It led to the deaths of about 7% of the population across these regions, although Calimport fared slightly better with a casualty rate of 5%.[1]

The disease was unknowingly spread by priests, which was how it gained its moniker of the "Temples Plague".[1]
