==Powers and Stats==
Tier: | from to physically, with preparation
Key: Prion | Infected Animals
Name: v2.CJD (Default Name), varies by player choice otherwisehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWChokFZDwQ (Ar)
Origin: Plague Inc.
Gender: None (Is a prion)
Age: Varieshttps://www.news-medical.net/health/What-is-a-Prion.aspx (Ar)
Classification: Prion, Pathogen
Powers and Abilities: Biological Manipulation & Disease Manipulation (by transmission though food, dairy, animals & humans. Can cause severe & lethal symptoms. Can remain active & thrive over long food supply chains),https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Q0uWUBXcmv53bCHN6jbGGfRm1qqLDCIR/view (Backup) Durability Negation (causes severe & lethal symptoms), Illusion Creation (by Occipital lesions), Limited Transmutation (turns normal proteins into more prions of itself), Madness Manipulation (Types 1 & 2), Memory Loss Inducement, Mind Manipulation (causes neurodegenerative diseases), Paralysis Inducement (by destroying motor neurons & other status effects), Reactive Evolution (can evolve in response to global conditions & negatively impact cure progress), Small Size (Type 4; is a particle smaller than viruses), Sense Manipulation (by causing blindness, illusions & loss of balance in the infected), & Status Effect Inducement (by symptoms). Resistance to Information Analysis (can make itself harder to analyze in labs & not be able to reproduce in lab conditions), & Temperature Manipulation (is evolved to be highly comfortable & weather resistant to hot & cold climates, can develop significantly quickly when refrigerated) | Varies, can spread the prion, though can't directly control it
Attack Potency: Below Average Human level (by size), negates durability with abilities | Varies from Below Average Human level to Wall level physically initially (Can infect animals as small as fish & as big as wild game. Is implied to have insects as a vector of transmission. Comparable to it's real life counterpart, which can infect cattle.https://www.fda.gov/animal-veterinary/animal-health-literacy/all-about-bse-mad-cow-disease (Ar) Though the prion's symptoms will make them weaker physically & less mentally capable over time), City level with preparation (it's possible for the player to make world leaders launch nukes as an in-game event,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgktub4MSVA (Ar) which a plague that majorly effects the mind would be able to do)
Speed: Below Average Human, though can spread across the world in months | Varies from Below Average Human to Superhuman initially physically, potentially Immobile under paralysis & sense manipulation
Lifting Strength: Below Average Human | Varies from Below Average Human to Class 5 physically initially (can infect animals as small as insects & animals as large as cattle & wild game)
Striking Strength: Below Average Human level | Varies from Below Average Human level to Wall level initially physically
Durability: Below Average Human level, size makes the prion hard to kill | Varies from Below Average Human level to Wall level initially physically. Small Building level with tanks
Stamina: Limited to it's infected animals/humans, environmental resilience & ability to turn proteins into other prions. | Varies from Below Average to Superhuman initially, eventually Below Average due to symptoms
Range: Micrometers individually, though be spread across the world in months | Varies from Below Standard Melee Range to Extended Melee Range initially, eventually Below Standard Melee Range due to symptoms
Standard Equipment: The animal they've infected | Varies
Intelligence: Mindless individually (prions don't have nervous systems), Above Average collectively (can evolve to be more infectious, negatively impact the cure, reduce the severity of their symptoms & time their lethality) | Varies from Instinctive to Genius initially, eventually Animalistic for animals & humans at or above this rating (the prion causes neurodegenerative diseases, causing a decrease of intelligence in infected humans & animals)
Weaknesses: Unlike other prions, v2.CJD is curable in-game due to scientists being able to exploit it's structure. v2.CJD's traits take days to months to take full effect. | The prion makes infected animals & humans go insane, lose their memories & physically weakened over time.
