Wither Plague

""Morculus Ambutismus, or the Wither Plague as it is referred by most is a virus designed by accident by Halo Genetics Corporation. The virus was originally designed as a anti-soldier solution by eliminating higher thinking for temporary time. However it developed much more deadly, starting a necrosis process and eliminating higher thinking.

Background
The origins of the Wither Plague is from the Fallford Research Facility owned by Halo Genetics and Atomex Incorporated. This was after biochemical experiments conducted by the Halo Genetics company to develop a anti-soldier solution for the United States Military, this was part of the Technology Race between Atomex and Müners before the acquisition of Müners. This experiment mainly failed, as a "key" to easily and fully ignite the effects failed originally.

After buying several gallons of SHD-2 (a chemical made by Atoma Cola Company) that aided combat. After mixing the SHD-2 with the prototype MOAM (Morculus Ambutismus) caused the creation of the Wither Plague. This was also during the early animal testing phase. Brooks Duke proposed re-mixing SHD-2 with his Morculusis Process. This process was mixing the SHD-2 with different amounts of radiation. After reaching lethal doses of radiation, this was what created the plague. This new plague was originally named SHD-3.

The Wither Plague can affect most if not all animals. It could not affect very large animals but rather those around the same size of humans. To test this, Apes were used during testing and resulted in mainly success. The early changes to the creature fit under psychological changes, later necrosis of some tissues. This process starts to become deadly at the Stage 3 of the plague, where the animal develops fungus on it's body that create spores to spread the virus, and in order to spread it they must consume liquids. The Plague being mixed with water would cause rapid growth of the virus.

Biology
After being mutated, there are several different variants of the virus that are replicated. These creatures have different behavior, depending on their mutations. The virus mutates differently, depending on the previous mutations.
