Traits
Affliction (Exclusive)
SoftBots can have all sorts of medical ailments, commonly referred to as Afflictions.
Typically they are obtained at birth due to low-quality stardust or some other error, and are often fatal.
However, it is possible to delay a SoftBot's eventual demise.
All current afflictions affect the blood or tubing, and fall under the Exclusive rarity.
A SoftBot can only be afflicted with one ailment at a time. Any more than that, and they'd have surely perished not long after birth!
NOTE: Afflictions do not count as Mods, so they cannot be bought unless under special circumstances.
Haemograena Pleurisma (Affliction)
An ailment that causes strange white bubbles to appear in the blood. Looks odd, but is rather benign.
Some fear that this affliction is caused by something going wrong with the White Pupil Mod installation, but no official research has been done on the matter.
Hylica Catalis (Affliction)
A Benign affliction that causes the horn to become rather odd-looking and curved. While not a fatal affliction, SoftBots with this ailment may end up shunned by their peers.
Gangreana Senilis (Affliction)
An affliction that causes internal rusting that rarely causes filigree metal growths. Once the filigree growth starts, it continues until the whole softbot is eventually encased in it, unable to move.
There are treatments being developed that slow the spread and advancement of this affliction- but currently once you have it, it will inevitably completely immobilize and kill you. SoftBots that don't have this affliction tend to regard it as beautiful, much to the dismay of the ones who have to live with it.
Ossa Nec (Affliction)
An affliction where the tubes become brittle and blood leaks from them constantly when broken. Anything from their horn to their irises may bleed profusely any time the tubing is broken. While hardly fatal as breakage is easily fixable if gotten to in time, it's still often an annoyance to anyone who has it and can be scary for both the afflicted and onlookers.
Idimidium Inanis (Affliction)
An affliction that causes the afflicted to have less than average blood amount, as the body's mechanisms are damaged and unable to produce enough. SoftBots afflicted with Idimidium often have problems with fatigue, fainting spells, and general anemic symptoms.
