Affliction record?

Speaking of afflictions...I have noticed with regard to SCs who are prophets or pretenders:

Afflictions appear to be based on base hps as cherry pointed out. If you go from high dominion...lots of hps...to high negative dominion...low hps...you will discover that you really pile up the afflictions as you are slain. Because you have that high number of hps starting out...and you get high percentages of your base hps done to you cumulatively as you are killed.

Meet Phradmon. Heroic in life. Heroic in death. Heroic MR stat.

Wonder what's on his mind. Still, he is the prophet.

Phradmon, ouch

Do undead keep accumulating afflication due to disease, which I think has no HP loss/turn effect on them? If so, he'll be more the shining example of afflication-ridden hero the longer he stays un-vanquished

Btw, is this how IW treats their Prophet? I wonder who will volunteer from this forum to be the next prophet should Phradmon finally retires

No, diseased undead don't gain afflictions from the disease. I wonder though if someone has all possible afflictions and they're supposed to get another - do they just dissolve?

So KO, what is Phradmon's heroic story? He must have something of a saga that led to his current state.

Well, um, I don't have the impressive rap sheets like you guys do, but I do think that one of the funniest afflictions I've seen was on a Great Spider:

"Lose a couple of eyes."

I almost spit soda when I read that.

Phradmon . . . Prophet, Hero, Crash-Test Dummy.

Phradmon is the result of an all AI quick test game. So Phradmon doesn't have a story.

Actually he does have some background. I found him when I inspected Pangaea (CW) besieging Caelum. Due to a bug Phradmon was immortal (not the old fashioned dominion Version, but true immortality where you cannot be killed) and got back from the grave whenever he was scewered. He singlehandedly defeated hundreds of enemies trying to get him (if boring them to death counts as defeating).
