Dying Stars
"This is the Academy. Nightfall is in less than an hour. Wrap up what you're doing and head back. Goodnight, and Good Luck”
Background:
The Beginning: it all started in Tachyon's lab as almost everything does. Tachyon had made some kind of virus, but it managed to escape. The virus had used a rat as its first host, until found the most gluttonous host it could find. Oguri Cap. When infected Oguri cap after four days would attack 8 people, kill 2, and infect 6, and managed to escape before they could grab her. this would only be the beginning.
The “Fall”: the infection would spread everywhere in the city. infected people biting people, which caused a massive pandemic. The government of Japan tried to control it as much as they could, but it become too big of a problem, so instead they created walls to keep the zombies inside.
The Walls: Due to the walls, nobody could escape out of the city. Which Especially relates to Majoris, whose sister could not be let out of the city, in which that sister Sweet Vera, would be killed by infected causing the warlord that is Majoris. The people within are trapped inside the walls, making it impossible to escape, and making it a death sentence.
the Aftermath: now there are TWO major factions within the city, that being the gang ran by Majoris, which control most of the city with violence, and the other being the academy, a mostly peaceful group, who wants to do nothing with the majoris's men. The academy ran by Rudolf.
Virus Stages:
”Stage 1 (1-2 days): The host experiences severe coughing, respiratory bleeding, excessive sweating, dilated pupils, a high fever, body aches, and cold chills. “Salvation” is still possible at this stage through Antizin made by Tachyon (or got from Supply drops). But “Salvation” is just prolonging the inevitable.
Stage 2 (2-3 days): Body temperature spikes up to 43°C (109.4°F). The infected person suffers from growing delirium, intense hallucinations, and early physical degradation, including skin lesions and blistering... they also become very malnourished, and become very aggressive
Stage 3 (The fourth day): Genetic mutations trigger an irreversible transformation. The virus completely breaks down DNA nucleobases, destroying most higher brain function and permanently turning the human into a Viral, becoming a viral, but keep some kind sentience, and in fact can cry for people to not hurt them, and try to stop their body from attacking people
Stage 4 (the last nail): Depending on what kind of environments the viral is in, it can become various different types of evolutions or types of zombies: for example if In darkness most of the time, it can become a Volatile. Or if it was near various chemicals it can become things like Bombers, Spitters, and Etc
Stage 5: Only seen by one type of specimen. The very first subject of the virus, and the greatest predator at night. The night hunter, Oguri Cap, uses any tricks in the books, making people drop their guard by trying to get sympathy, or even being able to sling around the city. The Night Hunter, is a predator that even outranks volatiles. Practically the mother of the infection.” - Tachyon

Creators Notes:
This was inspired by a random comment I found on a vampire Umamusume bot which you should check out: this bot
And yes, this is based off of Dying Light (loosely) if you couldn't tell, I do need to add more personalities to the characters, since currently there's only three changed personalities, A). Rudolf B). Sirius C). Oguri cap
