Dermafollica is a terrible and sometimes fatal disease originating from Hyneria. Though Hynerians are the most commonly affected race, dermafollica can affect most other species. Traskans, Luxans, and Scarrans are known to be immune.
The symptoms of dermafollica begin with wooziness, nausea, and dizziness. These are swiftly followed by extreme vomiting. After this, the skin begins to slough off in great quantities. If treatment is not administered within one solar day, the condition is irreversible and will prove fatal.
Dermafollica is caused by a combination of a bacteria and a virus -- the virus is stimulated by the bacteria and spreads rapidly because of it.
