Whithering Doom first makes the victim feel ill with terrible chills and weakness. This progresses until the body begins to "whither" with decomposing degeneration, the flesh rots, bones get brittle to the point simply standing or walking can cause the bones to splinter and fracture. The blood begins to go sour and finally spoils. Body parts can decay to the point they literally "fall off," the flesh rotting. Within four days time the victim decomposes to ash.
