Paranormal wounding modifier

Hello everyone!

So, I would like to know what cost modifier would a "paranormal" modifier on Toxic Damage be worth.

"Paranormal" toxic damage cannot be cured by non-paranormal medicine. Only Esoteric Medicine can act as First Aid/Physician on paranormal injuries.

Esoteric Medicine can be used as First Aid on any wounds without any equipment modifiers (positive or negative) but cannot be used as Physician for natural wounds (any injury not inflicted by a Toxic Paranormal source).

HP lost to Paranormal Injury are healed normally by natural recovery, but are healed last (That is, all injuries caused by anything other than Toxic Paranormal damage must be healed before Toxic Paranormal damage).

Paranormal healing (psychic healing, healing spells/potions...) work normally on Toxic Paranormal damage except for the previously cited limitation (all other damage is healed first).

Paranormal damage is a modifier to Toxic Damage for injuries caused by necromantic/psychic/other effects that are literally paranormal in nature. The attack itself must be paranormal in nature, even if the origin is paranormal, if the damage is inflicted by normal means such as conjuring venom (normal Toxic damage as per the conjured venom), or using a cryokinesis attack (Burning damage with whatever modifiers an extreme cold such as liquid nitrogen would cause) it is not Paranormal Damage. Psionic damage to your opponent's mind, or necromantic damage, or a damaging curse, or similar attacks would count as Toxic Paranormal damage.

How would you price a Paranormal modifier to an Innate Attack in a universe where they are well known and Esoteric Medicine is common and such attacks would be discovered on an autopsy? And in an universe where it is unknown except to a select few and as such it's the preferred covert assassination weapon where unless you have an expert in paranormal things on hand to examine the body you end up with a dead body with no visible cause of death?

Thanks!
