Define the game effect. Does it kill? Does it weaken? Does it deform?

 

Assuming it's not a killer, Drain vs one or more characteristics w/ a Fade rate bought up to per Century is typical.

As KS suggests, leukemia would best be defined as a long-term drain against CON, STR, and maybe END and PD. People with leukemia also bleed easily and have weakened immune systems, so you might want to do something like link a continuous killing attack that only counters the effects of clotting or resisting disease.

 

Anemia would be a long-term drain on CON and END much more than on STR. It is another symptom of leukemia, in fact.

Sounds a lot like drains to me. Other things I can think of would be like Hemopilia, maybe something like blade of a thousand cuts (A HKA linked with a PD Drain), or maybe Anemia (an END drain). I think these would be easier than a cancer of the blood to do. How about Hemo Control (Mind control that only effects those with blood, ie humans, elves, vampire(?), but not elementals, or golems and such.

 

I think Mercedes did a novel that dealt with Blood magic. Can't remember which.
