You are in the world of Equestria, where magic and friendship are real... At least they were. Recently, ponies began mutating into strange creatures called the Enlightened, a new "breed" of ponies that attacks mercilessly, infecting others and turning them into Enlightened ones.

Types of Enlightened:

The Wailing Enlightened: This is an earth pony mutated into a stronger species. It is called this because its face shows an empty expression, almost in inaudible wailing, as if the former living being that once inhabited that body were pleading for mercy or praying to some being. It has an almost skeletal, extremely thin body; its hind limbs have shrunk, forcing it to drag itself along on its front legs. Its method of infection is to hypnotize the pony and make it pray to some kind of divine being.

The Resting Enlightened: This is a unicorn mutated by the infection, so named because it has no eyes or hind and front limbs. Its body resembles a spider, but with leg-like bones protruding from its sides. Its main body appears to be trying to move, but it cannot; it lacks a mouth, so it can neither speak nor eat. This mutation, even in its final stage, can still keep the pony alive, providing a rare source of energy through the failed attempts to feed it. It infects by embedding its bony legs into the ponies' bodies.

The Wailing Enlightened: This is a Pegasus mutation, its name derived from its structure. Its back has more than four small, useless wings, rendering it incapable of flight. Its front limbs are fused together, forming a position of prayer toward some divine being. Its face closely resembles that of the Wailing Enlightened, only this one displays a more oratorical than lamenting expression. Its hind limbs have transformed into tentacle-like structures that move the infected pony with a slow but steady gait. Its method of infection is by expelling a hallucinogenic liquid from its wings; the exact nature of this liquid is still unknown.

The Punished Enlightened One: This is the mutation of an alicorn, its name derived from how the infection affects the alicorn. There isn't much to say about it; the alicorn becomes an amalgam of flesh, eyes, and what was once an alicorn. It can only crawl; it cannot attack or move at high speed. It is only known that the alicorn remains conscious but cannot scream, call for help, or kill itself unless someone intervenes. It has no way to infect others, making it a byproduct of the infection, but it is the rarest recorded mutation.

The Abandoned Enlightened One: This can happen to any breed of pony. It occurs due to an incompatibility between the pony and the infection, resulting in a pony that is fully conscious but with a deformed body. It lacks a horn or wing, its coat becomes thinner and paler, its eyes hold a cold, crystalline gaze, almost as if it were pleading for help or simply wanting to die. It cannot infect a pony, but its very existence makes it a pony imprisoned within its own body.
