Bacteriophage

The Bacteriophage is exactly what it sounds like: a bacteriophage. These microorganisms inject their DNA into bacteria, giving them viruses and subsequently killing them. Typically, these viruses are not very harmful if at all to humans.
This particular bacteriophage happened to be nearby when Tabitha Oilington used her Epithet in an attempt to keep a group of captured Destruction Bench Agreement Contestants in her grasp.
== Powers ==
Considering what it is, The Bacteriophage has abilities based around using its body in various ways as methods of attack and spreading viruses to nearby targets. It can use its capsid to slam into opponents, dealing massive damage and burying them, shoot viral sprays to interrupt actions, and inject its DNA directly into a unit to give them a devastating debuff. Its Passive, "The Infection Spreads", makes it so its particularly effective successes and enemies' particularly horrendous failures inflict a virus status, giving an afflicted unit disadvantage on their next roll and dealing damage over time.
Also, it can use its capsid as a makeshift d20, allowing it to reroll a failed action.

=== Episode 49 ===
In a last ditch effort to keep her collected, miniaturized DBA Contestants from escaping, Tabitha Oilington shrunk down the episode's party to microscopic levels, putting them face to face with The Bacteriophage. Due to them being particularly foreign objects, and their overall rowdiness, The Bacteriophage began attacking them. 
Unfortunately for it, the DBA Fuckos continued to do their thing and completely bullshit and overwhelm any obstacle in their way, not helped by The Bacteriophage's own terrible luck in terms of rolls. Mr. Skilton managed to coat it in hardened oil, Desmond Regalis used its virus to instead become immune to its attacks, Gamer Gabby literally Dr. Mario chained it, Cherri Irvine danced all around it, Venus Vanderbelt broke one of its legs, and Penny Craftwork copied its likeness and managed to infect it with its own virus. All in all, things didn't go well for this creature, and it was defeated relatively easily.

=== Episode 50 ===
The Bacteriophage appeared by technicality as a Time Construct created by a chain reaction of temporal anomalies at the heart of DBA. It acted as a boss at the tail end the second boss rush of the session, where it was immediately intimated by Venus and tried to escape, but even still got beaten up by the party a fair bit,
== Trivia ==
* Due to how fucked over The Bacteriophage (which was meant to be a decently challenging boss) got, the Stamina and Proficiency Rewards for defeating it were lowered from their initial intended values.
