Infectious Zombie Patch

==Infectious Zombie Patch:==
Traditional Midian zombies are creations of Necromancers and Death Knights not viruses or STDs. This patch is designed to introduce a form of viral zombie; they are not created by necromancers nor are they easily controlled. These viral zombies will have characteristics similar to Midian zombies but will also have some unique features. The infectious zombie is more like those found in movies and tv shows, spread by disease. The most common way the disease is spread is through a bite, saliva, though transmission through other bodily fluids is also possible.
These walking dead are resistant to Necromantic control and receive a saving throw or a willpower challenge to resist command. Additionally they have a varied level of intelligence, allowing some to be very dangerous. In the horror movie fashion killing these walking dead is best done by destroying the brain or decapitating the body. Cutting up the body and removing the limbs will slow them down but it will not stop them.
Chance of Infection is disturbingly high. If bitten, save vs. disease at 18. If failed, the victim will slowly lose to the disease over the next few hours to few days depending on the severity of the wound. Other bodily fluid exchanges can spread the disease as well, but at a reduced risk and rate of infection.

==Symptoms of an Infectious Zombie Bite:==
===Common Symptoms:===
The victim experiences swelling, severe pain, tingling, weakness, anxiety, nausea and vomiting, hemorrhaging, perspiration, and eventually heart failure. Local pain following infection is often intense, increasing with the ensuing edema and then fading to numbness as the infection radiates from the wound.
===Extreme Symptoms:===
Along with Common Symptoms the victim experiences extreme pain at the location of the bite. Then the mouth and throat swell, making it difficult to breath. The victim gets lightheaded, collapses and goes into shock -- all within minutes of the bite.
