Calciocranis

Calciocranis is a rare skin condition that affects the colour of the eyes and skin.

Although it is a rare condition, affecting every 1 in 1 million people, Anthros with dark bodies are more likely to have it.

Causes
Calcio-Cranis is caused by a pigment deficiency during gestation. The deficiency can either be caused by genetics, as one parent will almost always have less pigment present in their body, or inherited by a parent with the condition.

Effects
Contrary to popular belief, Calcio-Cranis has no ill-effects on the health of those with the condition. All it does is change the colour of the eyes turning them all white, and the colour of the skin, turning the affected area white also.

Depending on the severity of the pigment deficiency affects the area that turns white. Mild cases usually result in the odd white patch on the body and cloudy eyes, whereas more severe cases could result in the whole head being white as well as the eyes

Treatments
No medical treatments for Calcio-Cranis exist although cosmetic treatments, like makeup may aid in concealing it.

Due to the condition's null effect on a person's health, those who have it tend not to seek correction or concealment unless they become ostracized for it (which happens rarely)

History
Calcio-Cranis was first reported in 1644 where it was initially believed to be the work of witches. During this time those with the condition were persecuted under the guise of witchcraft and were often subject to horrendous torture or experiments. When it was discovered that dark bodied Anthros were more susceptible to it, they too fell under great scrutiny until about 1780 when it was discovered to be a pigment deficiency and not witches (although by the early 1700s the belief in witchcraft had fallen drastically)
