'''Boren's Syndrome''' is a [[human]] disease caused by prolonged exposure to high-yield [[plasma]] (and/or high-energy Electromagnetic radiation), such as from a [[Plasma Grenade]]. Symptoms include brain tumors, migraines and amnesia. Without proper treatment, death commonly occurs. Effective treatment requires thirty weeks of intensive chemotherapy. Unconfirmed claims as to the cause of the disease include inhaling the gases released when a [[Type-51 Carbine]] magazine is ejected and being around [[Plasma Grenades]]. | '''Boren's Syndrome''' is a [[human]] disease caused by prolonged exposure to high-yield [[plasma]] (and/or high-energy Electromagnetic radiation), such as from a [[Plasma Grenade]].
