The Rot
A terrible ailment that befalls imps and its seedlings. It's highly infectious for wild animals and people alike. In its early growth the rot appears as bulging tissue, a little more inconvenient than a case of scabies. It spreads through the host, causing malignant growths and eventual death.The rot lives on for a long while after the death of the host, turning it into a shambling contagion. Fire is the surest way to kill any rot infestation, so inquisitors deploy flamethrowers on contaminated areas, often torching whole forests.
