Plague events signify the end of Build Phase and occur at nightfall in order to kill a few dwarves, who will play as monsters. The number of dwarves killed is proportional to the number of dwarves in the game, in order to make the game fair. About half the dwarves will die to the plague if the game has 20 players or fewer, and about a third if it has 21 or more. Dwarves that die to the plague will also get one additional monster mana per second upon death. Heroes are immune to all plague events.
Dwarves who die to the plague (without opting into it) will have a reduced plague chance if they stay for the next game. If they do plague in the next game they will receive a lump sum of bonus monster mana.

Plague Events
One of the following plague events is randomly selected each game.
Old Plague
You have become sick and will soon die! Wither effects kill you quickly and make you unable to use your Healing Ale.
Zombie Infection
You have contracted the Zombie Infection! You will instantly become a zombie and slowly die, but hitting other dwarves may spread the infection!
DEATH
DEATH has come to claim your souls. He screeches as he teleports from dwarf to dwarf, killing them as he goes. If you see DEATH, avert your eyes and run, your only hope is he claims another dwarf in your place.
Storm
A STORM COMETH! Passing storms strike lightning around the map. Bouncing through the air probably isn't a good idea, but maybe being grounded isn't that much better anyway...
Purge
The dwarves are lifted by an other-worldly force high into the air, some of them having their souls ripped from their body. The now lifeless corpses fall to the ground, along with those who retained their souls, protected on their fall.
Plague of Frogs
An onslaught of frogs begins to rain down from the heavens above. The dwarves must attempt to fend off the frogs or end up overwhelmed by their sheer numbers.
Malfunction
Sprocket has contacted your fellow dwarves with some news: he's left some experimental rocket boots in the armory. Dwarves fortunate enough to have donned these boots will find themselves taking a free trip to the monster spawn.
Acid
Dwarves suddenly feel a burning pain on their insides and begin to melt away until nothing is left except an unrecognizable pile of goo.
