Suffer an affliction when X

I want to make a werewolf who suffers Moderate Pain whenever he touches silver. Does anyone have any idea where to start looking for a point cost? Or some home-made rules?

Divine Curse

Divine Curse tells me precious little. Judge on a case-by-case basis. And the worse the curse, the more points is it worth. I was looking for something more specific.

Chronic Pain with Mitigator (not near silver)? That's probably getting into quirk territory, though, which maybe this trait should be be, especially if it is combined with Dread.

And more generally. Supposed he suffered Hallucination, or Nausea?

There isn't any non-catchall disadvantage for this, AFAICT. Really, though if the character also has Dread and/or Weakness, "Also suffers an affliction" is probably just a quirk.
