Imperial warrior invulnerable to disease?

Now this is definately weird. I have been playing up a 2hander warrior type Imperial, with strength and endurance as favored attributes, meaning my luck is just average at 50.

I'm going with minors all the way, with the exception of Armorer, so even though I'm only level 5, I have about 600 skill ups, have nearly completed the fighters guild quest line, and have almost 40 points of fame.

While out adventuring, it occurred to me that I could not recall having ever set foot inside a chapel, something I usually must do on a regular basis with my other charactors. Curious, I had a look at my stats page, and sure enough, ZERO diseases contracted. All my other charactors have double digit figures there much earlier, even my wood elf.

This seems very odd to me. Note that I'm playing on the XBox, with no downloads. It's a right out of the box version.

Also, none of my equipement is enchanted with any resist disease enhancements.

It seems almost impossible to have been this lucky all this time. If my Dark Elf assassin even smells a rat, she's running to an alchemist for a cure as soon as she gets back to town. It's weird man.

EDIT: One more thing, I have killed Vampires with this charactor.

You're only level five, and most of the "disease" ridden creatures will be for higher level players. Diseased rats aren't that common either, and with one or two rats at a time, it's just not likely at all.

IMO, you've pretty much lucked out for now, but it wasn't much luck considering your level. I started getting diseases and things like that by the time I reached maybe 10th level or so.

That makes sense. This is the first charactor designed to go for mostly skill perks instead of levels for me. I'll probably end up with a level about 10.

I'm sure I'll be visiting a local chapel before too long, just seemed odd.

Thanks!
