Flower Fungal Infection AU (TMC)

‼️Takes place after Catalyst ‼️

The dead resurrect and are now mindless zombies covered in plants. The fungus builds up around wounds or certain places that caused the death. The fungus is a parasite, using the dead as hosts. The spores of the fungi are deadly toxic to alternates. Some alternates die, some hide, a rare few fight. The fungi are also deadly toxic to other species, especially humans. Inhaling the spores is fatal, as the fungus tear you from the inside out, turning you into a mindless zombie. Best advised wearing a mask when venturing outside.

The fungi can enter the body in a few ways. It can enter the lungs after inhalation, corrupting the lungs and taking over other organs slowly. It can also enter open wounds into the blood line, infecting a little quicker than through the organs. Early symptoms can be (but not limited to) coughing up bloody petals/leaves, sudden aggression, migraines, dizziness, hallucinations, a sudden urge to go outdoors in infected areas.

‼️The infected can be killed off. Alternates cannot get infected, they'd just die. You can prevent an infection before it starts by cutting the infection out within 3 days‼️
