Plague scythe of Entropy summons a magical +2, two-handed scythe of serrated black bone infused with disease. The scythe is usable only by the caster, who is considered to be proficient with the weapon. The scythe deals damage as a greatsword and struck targets must make a DC 17 Fortitude save or be affected by a contagion spell. The disease is determined randomly and lasts for 1d6 rounds. Victims can only be affected by one disease at a time – multiple hits do not inflict multiple diseases.
