# Anomalous Factions

## Gootraxians

Legend has it that deep within the confines of an unknown laboratory known as "Laminax Labs," there exists a group of anomalies known as the Gootraxians. These creatures are the result of failed experiments and were deemed too dangerous to be released into the world. It is said that the area where they are kept is inaccessible and will forever remain a mystery to the outside world.

The Gootraxians possess an ability to infect people, and their mere presence can cause harm to those around them. It is rumored that those who have been infected by these creatures become mindless drones, serving the will of the Gootraxians.

Attempts to eradicate the Zombies have proven futile, as killing even one of them only seems to invite more to take its place. The army has long been wary of attacking them, as sending out a squad of soldiers would be akin to sending them to their demise.

As the years have passed, the Zombies have become a fixture of the land, with their presence felt in every corner of the world.
