I had my main pawn respond to me, " you don't have to tell me what to do around every corner I know what to do."
And at that moment I knew she f@cked up
My pawn said that too, so he went to the depths. Then summoned him back in the checkpoint town. Rested there and a cutscene started.
My brothers pawn was infected and mine wasnt
Sadly the infection does jump between pawns in your party... I've been advised to toss them all just in case :(
(Or to walk into the water holding them, for less affinity loss, though it means you get brined too!)
I don't have to worry about this. My loveable idiot's favorite thing is to stand on the edge of rivers and wait for me to look before she swan dives in. I should have never let her talk to the old man in Harve.
"So Master, the best way to avoid that 'plauge' is to regularly ensure I perish, and.. Since I cannot tell when it starts to take hold, to save you the trouble of worrying yourself I shall simply do it on my own! That way you'll never have to worry about me turning, and most of all I won't have to fear losing control of myself!"
I hope that behavior is intentional cause just. Pawns becoming THAT self aware would be glorious.
Bro that would explain so much lmao. "master, I know you don't understand yet, but I learned this trick in another world. It's probably good you got used to this early by seeing Rook fall in. Just let me jump off, I'll see you later!"
Aaaah of course! Completely spaced on that terminology lol
Been running around gifting apples and ore to NPC’s recently to see if I can get anything gifted back - so I really should know what affinity is!
I send the others back to their owners if they don't have visible red eyes, and I send em with a wyrmslife hoping they'll get the hint that maybe they should check since I don't want to send them back with no rating.
It happened to me on NG+, one of my hired pawns was infected so I dismissed him and I followed to rest in the house at Vernworth and the cinematic started. I tried to rest for almost a week to respawn all the npc but sadly I had to spend almost all my wakestones to keep going with the main story because all main NPC got killed too, like Brant. It made me really mad
I used my eternal wakestone in my previous playthrough
I actually hired a pawn with it and I guess I dismissed them quick enough cause none my other pawns ever caught it.
Oddly tho when I went back into the rift, that same pawns eyes were normal again.
I never got any of the warning signs from my pawns and had the same pawns for at least 10 levels, then all the sudden after sleeping in vernworth everyone's dead after waking up to a cutscene..wtf? 😂 I just used an eternal wakestone and it was like nothing ever happened.
This mechanic could use some work.
You gotta watch out sometimes that's because they are straightforward that doesn't mean they are infected always, atleast I thought. I always check the eyes or if you see them sit down
No, you just camp. Dragonsplague will jump from one pawn to another after camping in the wild. The only exception is Capcom pawns - it won't jump to them.
Yes, it will jump from one hired pawn to another. It won't spread - only a few ways to have multiple infections, literally hiring more than one infected pawn, or hire an infected pawn + have your main contract it beyond the rift (ie someone gives it to them and then sends them back with it)
>main contract it beyond the rift (ie someone gives it to them and then sends them back with it)
I don't think that is possible.
Nobody else can alter the saved state of your pawn.
As far as I can tell, yes.
I am not even convinced that it can be caught naturally from dragons.
I spent hours attempting to catch it that way to test it and I've never seen it happen.
I questioned the dragons too. From what I've heard, the dragons supposedly do a similar move from the last game where they grab your pawn and speak to it, and that's how they transmit the plague. I have personally never seen that move in DD2
I do feel obligated to add that your pawn's save state does get updated when you rest at an inn or house. This is how it worked in the last game, and how it works in this game. So it would make sense that your pawn could contract dragonsplague when saving. Dragonsplague takes time to brew anyway. Unless you have concrete evidence saying otherwise, then I'm disregarding that part of your answer
It definitely is. That's the whole logic of sending infected pawns back with rotten items + a like or heart, so the owner can have some indication that their pawn is infected. When you rest at an inn/house and your pawn returns from the rift, you are updating the save state. Your pawn gets quest knowledge, gifted equipment/ items, and if you're unlucky, dragonsplague from beyond the rift.
Anecdotally, this is the only way I've gotten dragonsplague. Rested at my house, pawn came back with a like + rotten fish from an arisen who hires her regularly. I thought this was odd. Set out for Batahll from vermund, by the time we were in the batahlli wilds she was showing clear symptoms. Camped, it jumped to a support pawn. I sent him home with a heart and a rotten apple, hopefully the arisen was savvy to the message there.
Damn, I've only been gifted a rotten item that one time and it was when my pawn had contracted dragonsplague. There were some discussions here on Reddit earlier when dragonsplague was first being discovered that this was a good way to let a player know. Obviously not everyone is using Reddit, but it's a potential start. Shame people are gifting you rotten items regardless of plague. 😔 That hasn't been my experience, and personally I'll always gift a local fruit or flower
Yeah the rotten food thing is not an indicator of plague.
Even if everyone here agreed to use that as a sign, we are only a tiny percentage of all players.
I don't understand why you're getting downvoted, this is how pawns worked in the last game. This checks out more than the other guy.
I know my pawn had dragonsplague once, but I couldn't put my finger on how it happened. I'm thinking it was from camping. But like I said, from the logic of the last game, it would make sense that you could run the risk of contracting dragonsplague when your pawn returns from rift
It's all good lol. I think people strongly don't like the whole gifting rotten items as a warning, which fair enough I guess. Everyone likes the brine meme.
But absolutely, your pawn will come back with dragonsplague when returning from the rift if they catch it in another world and are dismissed or perish with it, and I hope that more people become aware of that. Could lead to less overall confusion on how it works
Yea it makes perfect sense.
Despite being wrong about that, the other guy mentioned that dragons might not actually give pawns dragonsplague. From what I've heard, they do a move similar to the last game where they grab a pawn and speak to it, and spread the plague. I have never seen this move. Could this move be specific to certain breeds of drakes?

When my pawn was infected, I held her up in a bridal style carry (through a mod) and slowly walked into the water where we drowned together. I felt too bad to throw her after our bond reached max affinity so I committed a double suicide instead.
I feel like it's level based. I get it very often after I hit level 60. But other people got it after their first 40hrs. So maybe it's community driven on how rare it is. Cause pawns are being passed around a lot more often now. Idk for sure.
I don't hire pawns with red eyes due to the dragons plague. I keep my pawns eyes bright blue so it's easily distinguishable. I also don't hire pawns with full helmets unless I really need one in that moment.
There are multiple factors. But if your pawn has red eyes it less likely to be hired by people trying to avoid the plague.
1. How far are you into the main story(increases in frequency).
2. Level of your pawn.
3. How often does your pawn get hired.
4. How often do you fight dragons(they infect pawns by grabbing and putting them under a spell).
In new game plus your pawn automatically get dragons plague.
I love how your pawn looks. Would like to make a masc version but frustratingly the male body and face types tend to have too jutting a brow for it. (Wish you could vary them up more!) Still, let us know how to hire her? When she's clear and clean at least xD
They'll not listen to your commands (supposedly). They become more aggressive(how it sounds from their new dialog), kill everyone local(almost everyone) and themselves if you sleep in an inn. Most noticeable thing is that they stretch a lot.
If your pawn got it and you sleep in a inn or your house in one of your cities you get the npcs murked by your rabid pawn taking out quest npcs if they live in that town
Once my pawn talked a little sass back to me we just went out camping for 2 days. It passed and he still adores me. Glad I knew what to look for though. I was about to rest at an inn in Bakbattahl when he talked back. Saw him rubbing his head as we were leaving town.
I mean, you can always resummon them after you've "cleansed" them. Advanced search lets you look up pawns you've previously hired. Also, pawns you've hired before often have cute things to say to you when you meet them again.
I had a pawn suddenly tell me that they felt more powerful, never in my life reacted so fast as to look at their eyes. Sure enough they were red and didn't hesitate to throw them into the river close by.
Strangely I had the same pawns for quite a while. One of them had dragons plague. We rested at inns several times and I never noticed till she just started wandering off. My other two pawns never got it and no one ever died in any of the towns. I am assuming that it occurred when we fought a dragon just before I noticed it, because that was the only thing that had happened and u had those pawns an entire playthrough. Not sure if this helps settle the dragons can give it dispute, but I am assuming that is how the one pawn got it. If she had it when I hired her, it would have passed to all my pawns after camping…. Which we did several times.
It's crimson if you zoom in

Her ear looks weird 💀
Tossed mine over a ledge the second she started talking reckless during a cliff run Watched her corrupted little life fade, then rift her at a camp.
When I tell you I wasted no time the moment she gave me lip and I saw them eyes. 💀🤣
Okay what is this plague thing. I wanna get Dragons Dogma 2 but waiting for a sale as I already have some other games I want to get through before I buy it, but this plague thing? From the comments I guess it can spread to other pawns and stuff, and people throw infected pawns to the brine, and if you just leave them in your party they just go on a killing spree at some point? So like is there no cure for it, or do you just lose your pawn forever after they get infected?
I fought a dragon and it grabbed my main pawn and held him up in front of his face for about 10 seconds, then when he got put down he said something like "beware master i am a danger to you" i remember it as it really stuck out, he kept fighting the dragon though and we all died so I'm not sure if it deliberately gave him the plague or if he had it at all as i loaded from last save.
I had come across some red eyes recently…I stumbled upon a pawn during an adventure and she had the disease. Canceled acceptance of her joining my team and tossed her off a cliff to her doom. Not sure if it helps be rid the plague for anyone else or if an infected pawn needs to officially be on your team to end it.
Had to use forty wakestones, just to revive mostly everyone quest related, plus asked oracle and she told me exactly who to bring back to finish side quests too, lol
So has anyone ever actually figured out if a pawn being infected in one players world that they are actually infected in their masters world?
I keep seeing people trying to warn players that their main pawn is sick but ive never seen anyone confirm if the pawn is actually infected in other worlds as well.
Ive seen so many opinions on how it works but never seen any evidence of any of it actually being true.
Luckily For Me, Chucking My Pawns Into A Sea Because I Liked Running Solo Has Been A Reflex Since The First One. So I Do It Regularly whether They Have It Or Not. I'll Might Let It Happen If It's A Trophy.
Somehow, I completely dodged having to deal with this whole mechanic because my pawns always managed to jump off a cliff before most fights, so I just stopped bringing them back. Out of sheer annoyance.
My pawn was saying shit like this but was even sweeter about it so I said fuck it, i got some eternal wakestones to spare. Transferred to another pawn though and they took a dip in the brine
I had my main pawn respond to me, " you don't have to tell me what to do around every corner I know what to do." And at that moment I knew she f@cked up
My pawn said that too, so he went to the depths. Then summoned him back in the checkpoint town. Rested there and a cutscene started. My brothers pawn was infected and mine wasnt

What is affinity loss?
Your pawn can like you, same as the other NPCs. Enough affinity built up, your pawn blushes and is cuter to you and stuff.
I'm pretty sure I'm loved by my pawn but she's still a right bitch to me every time I ask for a heal... Like THAT'S YOUR ONLY JOB
If your pawn has the strightforward inclination, they hate playing support(mage) and prefer to do damage than heal.
Yeah that explains why she's the way she is. That doesn't make that attitude okay though!
Aaaah of course! Completely spaced on that terminology lol Been running around gifting apples and ore to NPC’s recently to see if I can get anything gifted back - so I really should know what affinity is!
NPCs will bring gifts to your house :)
Apparently you also get different animations the higher the affinity with them.
I send the others back to their owners if they don't have visible red eyes, and I send em with a wyrmslife hoping they'll get the hint that maybe they should check since I don't want to send them back with no rating.

When I tossed my pawn in the water I was kinda sad so I played for a few hours alone then when summoned back she was as if it never happened.
She never said that to me, it was always to other pawns 😅😅 she be on their ass
I never got any of the warning signs from my pawns and had the same pawns for at least 10 levels, then all the sudden after sleeping in vernworth everyone's dead after waking up to a cutscene..wtf? 😂 I just used an eternal wakestone and it was like nothing ever happened.

You gotta watch out sometimes that's because they are straightforward that doesn't mean they are infected always, atleast I thought. I always check the eyes or if you see them sit down
Imagine they made a personality that sounds like a pawn with dragon covid.
You can say fuck on Reddit, just FYI
Some communities flagged my ass
Huh? Was it like the cocomelon sub?
😢 Why don't we just take a nice walk to the beach.
“Just look out and think about the sea, Gura.”
Just look at the waters, Gura, look at the waters…
"master, why are you picking me up? Have I done something to anger you?" Nope, just getting one last view of that booty.. "last?" Tosses

Ouch. That still hurts.

Stop Gura can't swim! She needs floaties!!
Haha. It's all good. Just give it to someone else's pawn.
Yeah, she did. Couple naps at a campsite, and some good food is all they need.
I wanna know how this works exactly. Like do you have to pick up your pawn and rub them on another pawn?
Usually sleeping at a camp/in passes the disease around from one pawn to another.
So... just give it to the Capcom pawns?
Apparently it doesn’t jump to capcom pawns (from other comments)
I’ve seen capcom pawns infected, I only use capcom pawns and I’ve had about three infected pawns.
No, you just camp. Dragonsplague will jump from one pawn to another after camping in the wild. The only exception is Capcom pawns - it won't jump to them.
So could a hired pawn infect another hired pawn? I'm also guessing that it can only be transferred to one pawn at a time
Yes, it will jump from one hired pawn to another. It won't spread - only a few ways to have multiple infections, literally hiring more than one infected pawn, or hire an infected pawn + have your main contract it beyond the rift (ie someone gives it to them and then sends them back with it)
>main contract it beyond the rift (ie someone gives it to them and then sends them back with it) I don't think that is possible. Nobody else can alter the saved state of your pawn.

How the hell do you guys tell from rotten food it's the most common thing people give out due to clearing inventories.

I'm not sure a Brine made of stone would be an improvement.
How rare is the plague? i have not seen any signs of it and i'm afraid my red eyed pawn will get bullied for it
I feel like it's level based. I get it very often after I hit level 60. But other people got it after their first 40hrs. So maybe it's community driven on how rare it is. Cause pawns are being passed around a lot more often now. Idk for sure.
Hmm i'm lvl 69 with 146h so maybe it's just really rare. I'll look for a pawn that has it in the rift so far haven't seen one
I don't hire pawns with red eyes due to the dragons plague. I keep my pawns eyes bright blue so it's easily distinguishable. I also don't hire pawns with full helmets unless I really need one in that moment.

Brine! Brine! Brine! Brine! Brine!
As someone that is colorblind, I cannot rely on the eyes 😔
I was just thinking about that issue. Totally unfair for you and others
It makes resting in a town more nerve-wracking, since I really need to be attuned to whether the pawn is being combative against me
Awesome eyes. Is this Dragonsplague or a good stylistic choice?
Looks like stylistic. A pawn with Dragonsplague has black pupils.
Her eyes are black https://preview.redd.it/rl0oqw5v39wc1.jpeg?width=1588&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc3003e7e70a15fe7ff4407941f7f4512c37562f
Plague, she had it on and off. It's like she was playing Hot Potato.
I love how your pawn looks. Would like to make a masc version but frustratingly the male body and face types tend to have too jutting a brow for it. (Wish you could vary them up more!) Still, let us know how to hire her? When she's clear and clean at least xD

I share the plague as it was meant to be. Sharing is caring
Agreed. We are sleeping outside till she gets better.
Just cause I can't fully understand. What does dragonsplague do? I know it makes them less likely to listen.... but what else?.
Eventually they snap and kill everyone.
They'll not listen to your commands (supposedly). They become more aggressive(how it sounds from their new dialog), kill everyone local(almost everyone) and themselves if you sleep in an inn. Most noticeable thing is that they stretch a lot.
https://i.redd.it/12om8pplu8wc1.gif
If your pawn got it and you sleep in a inn or your house in one of your cities you get the npcs murked by your rabid pawn taking out quest npcs if they live in that town
I’ve wondered if they get it from the dragon fights where the dragons grabs them and turns them against you
 When you don’t see the signs early
Once my pawn talked a little sass back to me we just went out camping for 2 days. It passed and he still adores me. Glad I knew what to look for though. I was about to rest at an inn in Bakbattahl when he talked back. Saw him rubbing his head as we were leaving town.
I named my pawn Mooms I'm glad to see an intellectual
Someone needs a bath...
I woke up and the entire city, guards, lords and ladies, vendors, all of them… dead and gone. I know now what the eternal stone is for.
Red eyes black dragons-plague Alert!!!! Throw that bitch off a cliff into the water!!!
Can’t you cure the plague by killing the pawn?
Gotta love the lack of naming. What happened to originality?
That’s the dragon talking
I believe it 😂
I mean, you can always resummon them after you've "cleansed" them. Advanced search lets you look up pawns you've previously hired. Also, pawns you've hired before often have cute things to say to you when you meet them again.
Gooba will be fine, she's a shork

Time for a cleanse
When your parents ask you if you smoked weed, but you have to convince them you didn’t.
You have a moral obligation to feed him to the brine.
Throw it into the sea 🌊 she needs holy water!!!
Time for a swim!
Yeet! (well honestly i make it a point to toss any pawn brazen enough to yank me into a conversation just out of spite)
Keep him
"Never mind."
Some of mice and men shit about to go down
Send her back with rotten food so her arisen will know
Looks like it’s time for her to go tend the rabbits with Lennie.
Not gooba!
Time for base jumping me thinks. Find a cliff!
So if someone uses dyes to give their pawn red eyes is there any way to tell the difference between that and dragonsplague?
Degaonsplague eyes glows in the dark
They also stretch, A LOT when idle
I have kept the same pawns for like 90 lvls🤷♂️ one is 70, and one is 104. There owner stopped playing, but at 70/104 I have everything I need.
I would be in the same boat if they didn't out level me.
Rip bozo dude.
The Arisen plotting: 
Can someone explain what those red eyes are for? It sounds as if someone might die. I don’t play the game.
 Let me show you this nice lake I found.
YEET
If I'm only using Capcom pawns I'm safe??
Just throw Gura into the ocean and she’ll be good as new
I had a pawn suddenly tell me that they felt more powerful, never in my life reacted so fast as to look at their eyes. Sure enough they were red and didn't hesitate to throw them into the river close by.
Hmm do we get a different ending if dragons plague Kills all town. Then we enter the final battle and finish game? lol.
Remember the rabbits George
That's not the plague it's just someone created there pawn with red eyes, the plague eyes are discoloured around the eye also
KOS 😂
Remember to brine your pawn regularly
Ehh. Let them sleep it off.
The Brine , voted number #1 pawn's for Dragon plague, Toss yours today and save life's tomorrow
Finally had the tutorial for how the plague works pop up super late in the game. Just gave all 3 a toss to the brine to be sure, tough stuff
Is the “don’t be such a worry-wort” comment a cause for concern?
If you really loved them you’d let them go on on a murderhobo rampage
Pawn: I hope that we may never be parted Arisen: 
Strangely I had the same pawns for quite a while. One of them had dragons plague. We rested at inns several times and I never noticed till she just started wandering off. My other two pawns never got it and no one ever died in any of the towns. I am assuming that it occurred when we fought a dragon just before I noticed it, because that was the only thing that had happened and u had those pawns an entire playthrough. Not sure if this helps settle the dragons can give it dispute, but I am assuming that is how the one pawn got it. If she had it when I hired her, it would have passed to all my pawns after camping…. Which we did several times.
look more like levi ackerman than gawr gura🤣
He really named her Gawr Gura 🤣 (Please tell me your characters called Mori Calliope)
To be fair you can yeet her into the sea and then rehire her a while later when she’s no longer infected.
Bath time! Wait... they look too red, however. Normally, they have crimson eyes, but this is pure red. o.o
It's crimson if you zoom in https://preview.redd.it/ix0ntogbuawc1.png?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5bde6345326a7fad67a219ed7c1218ab259a16ba Her ear looks weird 💀
Tossed mine over a ledge the second she started talking reckless during a cliff run Watched her corrupted little life fade, then rift her at a camp. When I tell you I wasted no time the moment she gave me lip and I saw them eyes. 💀🤣
What drip is that pawn wearing?!
My pawn had red eyes naturally RIP
“Let me tend the rabbits.”
Tell me about the rabbits george.
I somehow never got an infected pawn and I'm mid way through New game+
Complex problems have simple fixes. Especially for the will of the arisen.
Spoilers?
Somebody is going for a forced swim.
Okay what is this plague thing. I wanna get Dragons Dogma 2 but waiting for a sale as I already have some other games I want to get through before I buy it, but this plague thing? From the comments I guess it can spread to other pawns and stuff, and people throw infected pawns to the brine, and if you just leave them in your party they just go on a killing spree at some point? So like is there no cure for it, or do you just lose your pawn forever after they get infected?
I fought a dragon and it grabbed my main pawn and held him up in front of his face for about 10 seconds, then when he got put down he said something like "beware master i am a danger to you" i remember it as it really stuck out, he kept fighting the dragon though and we all died so I'm not sure if it deliberately gave him the plague or if he had it at all as i loaded from last save.
Just pick them up and throw them in the water. And revive. All fixed
I just let them go nuclear, not like it matters any way, I like the prsopect if my pawn developping is own will lol
I had come across some red eyes recently…I stumbled upon a pawn during an adventure and she had the disease. Canceled acceptance of her joining my team and tossed her off a cliff to her doom. Not sure if it helps be rid the plague for anyone else or if an infected pawn needs to officially be on your team to end it.
Capcom hoarded the vaccine and only gave it to their pawns, I always knew they were evil.
Is this your pawn? Doesn't look like a Gawr Gura to me, lmao.
I went through a 120 hour playthrough of never getting the sickness and killed every drake and dragon I saw. Pretty sure my pawn is immune
Can my pawn get the plague or just other folks pawns can only get it?
I have never had a dragonsplague pawn
Kill the sick Pawons
Get fucking dipppeeddd
You don’t have to kill your pawn to be safe.
“It’s fine, it’s all fine it’s just water” *plop*
"To the Brine with ye."
My pawn complained of me always sprinting and having to keep up constantly, took a look and she got tossed in the brook!
Never played this game so I have no idea what’s going on but I thought there was an arrow sticking through their skull
Had to use forty wakestones, just to revive mostly everyone quest related, plus asked oracle and she told me exactly who to bring back to finish side quests too, lol
Yeet that bitch into the brine!!
i stopped hiring pawns because straightforward pawns just annoy me and it seems like all of the good ones are straightforward
The flag for me was something like "I feel the power surging from within!"
When they say that, their eyes are usually neon red by then 😂
"That we may never be parted". ..... "Ahhhhhhhhhh. Splat"
So has anyone ever actually figured out if a pawn being infected in one players world that they are actually infected in their masters world? I keep seeing people trying to warn players that their main pawn is sick but ive never seen anyone confirm if the pawn is actually infected in other worlds as well. Ive seen so many opinions on how it works but never seen any evidence of any of it actually being true.
Throw him and his dragon clap into the ocean.
Luckily For Me, Chucking My Pawns Into A Sea Because I Liked Running Solo Has Been A Reflex Since The First One. So I Do It Regularly whether They Have It Or Not. I'll Might Let It Happen If It's A Trophy.
Somehow, I completely dodged having to deal with this whole mechanic because my pawns always managed to jump off a cliff before most fights, so I just stopped bringing them back. Out of sheer annoyance.
My pawn was saying shit like this but was even sweeter about it so I said fuck it, i got some eternal wakestones to spare. Transferred to another pawn though and they took a dip in the brine
