Hi,

My 2nd ed character has a dependant: his sister.

We play in 2050 and she was hit by V.I.T.A.S. about a decade ago. Luckily it didn't kill her.

Based on the name - Virally Induced Toxic Allergy Syndrom - we deduced that VITAS causes the immune system to have extreme reactions to toxins in our enviroment. These reactions are lethal. The disease in itself doesn't kill, - the infected dies from the exposure to materials that VITAS have made him hyper-allergic to.

My sister lives in an apartment where everything is sterilized, all air is controlled, all allergens are removed and everything that enters the apartment are controlled for potential allergens. She lives most of her life in cyberspace and has become a very adept hacker. However, I support her lifestyle financially (and gets a hacker contact in return).

We've made a fair deal of money on a run, - unfortunally my character doesn't know how long he is going to survive. So he would like to help his sister for good.

Which brings me to the questions here: can you cure VITAS? Is it possible to remove the hyperallergi with Immunization?

A.
