The Telgi Gweld is, according to a book from GCMH Press, a virulent, yet slow-acting, strain of plague.

The sole known outbreak that occurred in Tifflan, a small village to the northeast of Riverhaven settled by a mixture of Humans and Halflings in year 149 of the Verekian Calendar, proved almost totally fatal to the citizens of that area.

Victims would generally have sore throats, nausea, fevers, and upon the third week, jaundice of the skin begins occurring. A few days thereafter, the patient's hair would begin falling out in clumps at a time until the patient was totally bald, coupled with the jaundiced skin shifting to a green hue. As a result, one clever, or bored, healer dubbed the malady the Gor'Tog Plague. It is unknown what results the illness would have on a Gor'Tog.
