Contagion Spread (Plague Cascade)
Target an enemy hero to infect them with a deadly contagion, dealing 125 magic damage over 10 seconds. Every 5 seconds, the contagion spreads to all nearby enemy heroes within the infected hero's radius.
If Contagion Spread is reapplied to an already infected target, it stacks up to 1/2/3/4/5 times. Each reapplication resets contagion’s duration to 10 seconds, but each additional application does 25 less damage, resulting in total damage per target as 125/225/300/350/375 based on the number of charges.
If the contagion reaches at least 3 charges on a target, they also gain an additional charge of Parasitic Drain.
Staff of the Master Effect
When the contagion reaches 5 charges, the target is afflicted by Infectious Burst.

Notes
Ability starts with level one, for other abilities to take advantage of it.
The current of the infected air is flowing towards the target enemy.
The infection spreads twice over 10 seconds, with the air around the target visibly infected and carrying the contagion to others.
