I thought I'd add one. I'm currently in the plotting stages with someone for a story. The genre is modern fantasy/sci-fi, though it might end up being fantasy since it does rely heavily on magic. The main character (not mine) has a small heart issue that has been largely covered up with an item that was magically enhanced to basically keep the character alive. Said character will, at some point, lose the item. My plotting partner is at a loss as to what might happen to their character should this happen.
The description of the heart issue has been vaguely described as a 'weak heart'. I know it's really vague, but bear in mind this is still in the plotting stages. So my questions are :
1) what kind of issues would require the magical item - I had considered something like congestive heart failure
2) if the item does in fact get lost - most likely taken or even destroyed - what kinds of effect would that have?
Bear in mind this is going to be a world where there is more magic than logic/science, so the idea that a doctor could take care of this has been largely dismissed.
