If The Elder Scrolls could have a 3rd disease on the same level as Vamp and WW...

It would need to be different from both lol

A drag queen.

Do you even play? Drag queens already exist in game. I can't go 2 steps in Davon's Watch without being accosted by a Nord in a wedding dress.

I see Orcs wearing them sometimes.

The filthy casual disease.

Turns you into a permanent qq'er.

Actually the stereotypical elitists qq more than those "filthy casuals". Now get that crap out of my thread.

Werebear. I'm biased though, I primarily play a Druid tank on WoW, so playing a Bear-man on both games would be sweet.

Ok, you're warned. This is not for the faint of heart.

If you were bold enough to view that spoiler then use this one too:

(Witch, would also be an easy out for them to create some form of necromancer skills)

While it would be completely lore unfriendly, as far as I'm aware, it would be interesting to see what they'd do with Corprus. While I can't find the original lore sources, I recall something about the worthy progressing through various stages of the "disease", something like going from Ash Zombie to Ash Ghoul to Ascended Sleeper. Gross, weird, and VERY classic Elder Scrolls stuff.

Oink, I say

Vrienda

Lich (Necromancer skill tree ultimate anyone?) or Flesh Atronach (Like that guy in Fort Virak)

I know not where this would fit in the timeline but according to my research it doesn't seem to be of any certain period of time and would be best implemented with a Red Mountain DLC. This would also be a good way to make Disease Damage viable as certain stages of Corprus could be weak to it, like WW to Poison and Vamp to Fire.

Something other than lycanthropy or undeath?

I don't know. Maybe some sort of nature thing that makes you plant-like, like something similar to a spriggan.

Come at me bro!

Wendigo.

As a wendigo description on Wikipedia read:

"In Algonquian folklore, the wendigo or windigo[note 1] is a cannibal monster or evil spirit native to the northern forests of the Atlantic Coast and Great Lakes Region of both the United States and Canada.[4] The windigo may appear as a monster with some characteristics of a human, or as a spirit who has possessed a human being and made them become monstrous. It is historically associated with cannibalism, murder, insatiable greed, and the cultural taboos against such behaviours.[5] The legend lends its name to the disputed modern medical term Wendigo psychosis, which is considered by psychiatrists to be a form of culture-bound syndrome with symptoms such as an intense craving for human flesh and a fear of becoming a cannibal.[6] In some Indigenous communities, environmental destruction and insatiable greed are also seen as a manifestation of Windigo Psychosis.[7]"

I'd associate them with Namira

DRXHarbinger

Manbearpig or scuzzlebutt would be pretty good.

Thevampirenight

I could see them adding a wendigo, maybe some new type of rare curse.
Created by Namira that requires you to eat the organs of a dead huminiod to transform back into humanoid form. So it would be like a ult, but would basically have a weakness of not transforming back unless you eat someone. I could see them adding this and it would be a cool addition to the game. But it would have to be quest that is given maybe with a choice to take on this curse, and thus it would be very hard to cure. Also this curse would not infect others it takes a speical item to spread the curse and this could work, I would like to see this now. I think it would be cool.

You do know Werewolves are in Skyrim too right? The process is a lot different though, and Hircine was not directly involved.

You know that Werewolves were in Morrowind's Bloodmoon expansion, right? And Hircine was directly involved.

I don't know about additional diseases, but it would sure be cool to have more skill lines devoted to daedra worship (that's what lycanthropy is after all).

When I first heard about ESO while it was in early development, I desperately hoped ZOS would not choose a lame, unoriginal class system, but one where you acquired a handful of skill lines that complement your playstyle or character theme. They could have offered all the classic TES schools of magic as skill lines, as well as the current weapon lines, as well as one devoted to each major daedra (eventually). As an example, the Dark Brotherhood DLC would have been a fantastic time to add a Sithis skill line. Some lines would be mutually exclusive - for example you would not be able to possess skill lines associated with Meridia and Molag Bal at the same time.

But what did ZOS choose? Generic, rigid archetypes found in tons of other games. This is one area where this game has been the most unoriginal TES title to date.

UHm.. yeah werewolves were in skyrim and Hircine WAS involved O.o i mean all the quest line involving the werewolves they do nothing else that talk about how they'd join Hircine hunting ground instead of Sovngarde at death... the explanation itself of how they did became werewolves involved Hircine itself (i don't think there's someone that hasn't played skyrim but just in case i'm not gonna spoilt it)

That's why i suggested the Wendigo! It's a "Kind of" curse.. you get it from cannibalism and well.. it just fits PERFECTLY with Namira.

Oompuh

Lich would be sweet

There's that boss in Wrothgar who turns into a Spriggan. There IS some precedent.

Or what about the Hollow in Valenwood or the sand warriors in Craglorn? Something that turns you to stone.

In the lore, Corprus actually makes you immune to disease. ;-)
