Description

This effect causes the common cold, with associated sniffling, sneezing, and coughing (at 1-minute intervals). The player's strength is reduced by 1 every 10 minutes. The effect lasts one hour. 200 units of cure is required to cure the cold; the cumulative cure is reduced by 20 units every minute.

Bugs

The effect event times should probably be a little random. Some more symptoms would be nice, too.
