2. Choosing a Symptom Path
Now you must choose your symptom path! There are 6 total paths you may take, the path is usually decided by the first symptom you buy; and are named after the first symptom in the "path of traits.
If you buy Nausea first, it doesnt mean you use the "Nausea Path". The path you use, you decide by the amount of traits you have bought. If you have 4 traits from the Coughing Path, but started with 2 Rash Path Traits, 3 Insomnia Traits, and have cysts;
you would have started with the Rash Path of traits but now are following the "river" or path" of Coughing.
The 6 Paths:
Coughing Path
Nausea Path
Rash Path
Insomnia Path
Cyst Path
Anemia Path
ALL COSTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE FOR BRUTAL
Coughing Path
Coughing, Sneezing, Fever, Immune Suppression, Pneumonia, Pulmonary Fibrosis, Pulmonary O edema.
