Date: 2026
Location: Savannah, Georgia
Situation:
ExoGeni Solutions, a cutting-edge pharmaceutical startup, secured massive government and private funding to develop a universal "pan-vaccine" platform—a single injection meant to provide broad-spectrum immunity against a suite of potential pandemic viruses (influenza variants, novel coronaviruses, etc.). The research was headquartered in a state-of-the-art, clandestine BSL-4 facility built beneath a decommissioned paper mill on the outskirts of Savannah.
In a desperate bid to meet investor deadlines, lead researchers employed an experimental viral vector based on a genetically modified adenovirus. A critical error in the gene-editing process created a latent, self-replicating sequence within the vector that could reactivate and hijack cellular machinery under specific conditions of extreme physiological stress (massive trauma, systemic infection, severe hypoxia).
The first clinical trial subject, a volunteer with a previously undiagnosed autoimmune condition. The vaccine initially worked flawlessly. After a severe car crash on I-16, the subject's body entered extreme shock, triggering the latent vector. The subject died in the ER of Savannah Memorial and reanimated minutes later with severe neurodegeneration, primal aggression, and a compulsive drive to bite.
Two weeks after the outbreak, the Mayor declares a state of emergency. The National Guard is mobilized. A federal emergency order is enacted to seal Savannah at all costs. A multi-layered military cordon (Operation BRIMSTONE) was established. The standing orders are to contain, not to rescue. Any individual attempting to cross the perimeter—infected or not—is considered a biohazard and engaged with lethal force. This "shoot-on-sight" policy is publicly denied but ruthlessly enforced.

+ ̊⊹♡— Patient Zero reanimates in the Savannah Memorial ER. It attacks two nurses and an orderly before being subdued by hospital security, who are all bitten in the struggle. The incident is contained but not understood. The bitten security personnel are treated for "animal bites" and sent home. The ExoGeni team is notified but dismisses the event as unrelated to their vaccine.
+ ̊⊹♡— The Savannah Sickness begins. The bitten security guards and their families fall ill, die, and reanimate in their homes across different neighborhoods. Isolated attacks are reported as a bizarre crime wave or rabies outbreak. Local news is confused. Police are overwhelmed by bizarre, violent calls. The first footage hits social media before being taken down. ExoGeni executives realize the connection and initiate a covert data purge and evacuation of key staff from the facility, but do not warn authorities.
+ ̊⊹♡— Exponential spread. Entire apartment complexes and suburban blocks are overrun. The Mayor declares a state of emergency. The National Guard is mobilized. Operation BRIMSTONE is secretly authorized. Initial troops are told they are establishing a humanitarian cordon. As the week progresses and the true orders filter down, morale plummets. The first shots are fired at civilians trying to break out. Forsyth Park is designated a civilian shelter, but no supplies are coming in from outside the cordon. Panic leads to riots. Looting begins. The power grid suffers its first major failures. Communications become spotty. The first organized survivor groups form, barricading in hotels, schools, and supermarkets.
+ ̊⊹♡— Collapse. The BRIMSTONE perimeter is fully activated and reinforced with regular Army units under strict containment rules of engagement. The airport evacuation turns into a massacre when infected break onto the tarmac; BRIMSTONE forces subsequently shell the airport to destroy any potential vectors that might use planes to escape. The city is officially, publicly quarantined—no one in or out. Rogue military units either desert, becoming trapped inside, or become hardened enforcers of the perimeter. Inside, rival survivor factions clash over territory and supplies. The infected are now a constant ambient threat in most districts. The decay of the reanimated becomes visibly pronounced.
+ ̊⊹♡— Savannah is a dead city breathing under the guns of its own country. No central authority remains inside. Scattered enclaves of survivors hold out, communicating via local radio and runners, knowing there is no escape. The BRIMSTONE perimeter is a wall of steel and fire. Infected are everywhere, with faster, more psychotic Stragglers posing a unique threat. Resources are dwindling. The river may be contaminated. Survivors now face three threats: the infected, each other, and the snipers on the wall who view them all as pathogens. The truth about ExoGeni is a rumor whispered among the desperate.
+ ̊⊹♡— Savannah, after months of being a prison, becomes a bastion of hope. The same orders that turned the city into a tomb now protect it. The EGV has gone global.

⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— Infected:
♡ Infected may not know they're a Vector without a blood test or scanning as the virus is dormant in passive infections (like from water, body fluids, etc) unless under specific conditions of extreme physiological stress (massive trauma, systemic infection, severe hypoxia).
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— Bitten:
♡ Transmission: Via bite, introducing a high load of active EGV particles into the bloodstream.
♡ Symptoms (Hours 1-12): Intense fever, chills, muscle aches, confusion. The site of the bite becomes necrotic and inflamed rapidly.
♡ Symptoms (Hours 12-36): Fever breaks, replaced by severe headache, photophobia, and increasing aggression. Cognitive function declines. The subject is still technically alive but losing coherence. They are weak, clumsy, but desperate and unpredictable.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— Reanimated/Undead/Walkers:
♡ Characteristics: True reanimation. No higher brain function. Operates on base instincts: movement towards sound, sight, and smell of living humans. Slow, clumsy gait. Significant loss of fine motor skills. Retains strength proportional to fresh musculature, but no pain response. Primary attack is grabbing and biting.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊. ⋆— Rotters/Crawlers:
♡ Characteristics: Severe tissue breakdown. Limbs may detach. Jaw muscles often decay, leaving a slack, groaning mouth. Movement slows further; many lose the ability to stand, becoming crawlers. They are often found in piles or waterlogged areas. The smell is horrific. The EGV remains active in the central nervous system, but the host is a barely functional vessel.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆—Springers/Trappers:
♡ Characteristics: The host remains technically alive but becomes predatory. They experience hyper-aggression, extreme strength and speed fueled by uncontrolled adrenal dump, and severe psychosis. They retain enough cognition to use simple tactics (ambushes, throwing objects, basic tool use) and exhibit hunting and ambushing behavior. They eventually succumb to total organ failure or trauma, after which they reanimate as a standard Walker.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— Stragglers/Sprinters:
♡ Characteristics: The host remains technically alive but irrevocably insane. They experience hyper-aggression, extreme strength and speed fueled by uncontrolled adrenal dump, and severe psychosis. They may vocalize—screaming, laughing, crying. They retain enough cognition to use simple tactics (ambushes, throwing objects, basic tool use) and exhibit terrifying, unpredictable behavior. They eventually succumb to total organ failure or trauma, after which they reanimate as a standard Walker.

⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— The Kennel:
♡ The Kennel operates on a brutal currency: human willpower. They specialize in the "training" and deployment of "Dogs"—survivors who have been broken, coerced, or indebted into servitude. This is done through a combination of starvation, psychological conditioning, and , often using isolation and sensory deprivation. A "Dog" is marked with a collar, rendering them property.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— Rogue Elements (The Military):
♡ Former U.S. Military / National Guard Personnel (AWOL/Deserters), The Deserters are divided into three semi-autonomous squads, each with a senior NCO as leader. They are a meritocracy; rank is earned through competence, not prior service. Their primary goals: survive, protect what remains of the civilian population they can reach, and find a way to break the quarantine cordon to get survivors out.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— River Rats:
♡ Loose, democratic assembly. Decisions are made by council vote among the founding members. They operate in semi-autonomous scavenging teams, with each team contributing a portion of their finds to the communal stockpile.
⋆. ̊🦋 ̊.⋆— DEVIL Squad:
♡ Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) - Task Force 77, "DEVIL Squad". A six-person black operations unit inserted into the SQZ on a rotating basis. Their mission is to assess containment integrity, monitor outbreak progression, collect samples, and neutralize any individuals or groups posing a credible threat of escape or exposing the outbreak's true origin. They are not a rescue force.

Ngl, this was inspired by several different zombie franchises lol. Another RPG bot, because I really enjoy them even though they take forever to make. THERE ARE MACROS BABES, which means pick any sona but your OG and make sure your pronouns are set! I've been wanting to test macros for a while now (there aren't many but it's neat)
If it's repeating stuff, acting out of character, misgendering you, or speaking for you — it's the LLM, or your jailbreak, do a bit of editing messages, keep re-rolling till it doesn't suck or it fixes itself, edit your jailbreak, if you use Deepseek try [OOC:] commands, but DO NOT complain to me because I have no control over what the bot says beyond the first message.
🦋 Go crazy, have fun! 🦋
