Syndrome acquisition can be boiled down into two main routes: (1) via materials and (2) via interactions. Mechanically, they're composed of a bunch of different syndrome tokens which detail how it works and what it does. To recap, syndromes are "diseases" which inflict effects upon creatures who acquire them. These range from mildly hazardous (mild blisters from inhaling boiling blood) to instantly fatal (severe necrosis from a contact poison attached to a breath weapon/creature made of blood).
Titans, forgotten beasts, nightmares, experiments, demons and angels have a chance to have a randomized syndrome. Evil clouds either cause major symptoms (as with beast/titan/demon sicknesses) or permanently transform creatures into zombie-like forms. Evil rain typically only causes minor symptoms such as blisters, bruising, coughing blood, dizziness, fever, nausea, oozing, and pain. Necrosis of the brain will eventually result in death once the brain rots away completely. For small creatures such as humans and dwarves, paralysis tends to result in suffocation.

A hospital is required to diagnose and potentially treat those that can be helped by treatment. They can cause unpleasant and sometimes fatal symptoms over a short to long duration, but some will clear up over time or with the assistance of a doctor. In unmodded games, syndromes are generally named after the animal, substance or effect that delivers them. 7 Multi-caste/multi-creature body transformations.
