From him, the infection spread rapidly to other journeymen at the Academy, who then passed the disease on to more when they returned to their clans and houses.

| The first signs of anything amiss were certain journeymen exhibiting unusual levels of power for their training. For example, a pair of young [[Arcona]]n journeymen manifested Force Lightning. Another managed to completely drain the energy out of an Equite's lightsaber. The next phase of the disease mimicked the symptoms of diseases common to the species of the infected individual. Fevers, nausea, vomiting, muscle spasms, and general soreness and fatigue were the most commonly reported. | | The first signs of something amiss were certain Journeymen exhibiting unusual levels of power for their training.

| When the infection spread far enough through the body, the infected individuals lost their ability to call upon the Force entirely. As a bizarre side effect, the infected gained enhanced speed, strength, and resilience as well as resistance to pain. As the infection spread further, these physical enhancements continued to grow though at the cost of the victim's mental faculties. Though initially only Journeymen were affected, the reasons for that are still unclear, the disease eventually spread throughout the Brotherhood eventually leaving only the Elders as the only ones not expressing symptoms. | | When the infection spread far enough through the body, the infected individuals lost their ability to call upon the [[starwars:The Force|Force]] entirely.

| The loss of their Force Powers caused an instant panic among those infected. Some appeared to believe that their betters had somehow stolen their powers.

| In other locations, the virus caused different problems.
