UMVII-74-9

## **UMVII-74-9, the Umbrian Virus**

UMVII-74-9, better known as the "Umbrian Virus" is a disease that can infect what is believed to be every race known to man. It is a highly dangerous virus that completely corrupts the mind of whoever it infects, changing their appearance and motives, turning them into slaves to the virus that will follow its every subconscious order. The virus seemingly has a mind of it's own as it has been shown subconsciously telling it's victims what to do, however most of the time UMVII-74-9 infectants will be following the orders of it's host. UMVII-74-9, however, isn't the most infectious virus ever currently as it only seems to want it's host to infect specific people he comes across and not just anyone on sight.

### UMVII-H

UMVII-H is still the same virus as UMVII-74-9, however this version is far more evolved and can actually speak to it's host. Unlike UMVII-74-9, only one of these evolved viruses can exist at once, or at least that's what it is presumed to be. This version of the virus is actually the only one that can spread, however it requires a host to do so. Upon either accepting the virus or being slain, the host of the current UMVII-H will be able to spread the virus into it's victims body, however this will not be UMVII-H, but rather UMVII-47-9. This version of virus is, as already said, able to transmit conscious messages to it's host, telling it who to infect or if somebody should not be infected. Although it appears that the host cannot disobey the order of infecting someone, it does appear that they are able to disobey the order of *not* infecting someone.

#### UMVII-H-1

UMVII-H-1 was the first ever Umbrian Virus to infect a host, that being Adriel. This virus appeared to be much weaker in terms of power as it has much less control over it's host than it does now.

#### UMVII-H-2

Like UMVII-H-1, UMVII-H-2 was the second evolved Umbrian Virus to infect it's host, that being Alpheus. Alpheus was not given this version of the virus by simple infection however, but rather UMVII-H-1 transmitting a signal to the Umbrian Virus currently infecting Alpheus, causing it to slowly evolve into UMVII-H-2. During this phase of evolution, Alpheus reverted back to a regular namekian, only to soon return to his Umbrian state once this evolution was finished.

## **The Infection**

UMVII-74-9 is able to infect all currently known races, whether they have a mind or not. It rests in the center of one's torso as multiple arms begin to breach out of the main cell, spreading throughout the body until it has reached every single segment of the body. Once the virus has completed spreading the victim will reawaken in their new state of mind, some following the host whereas some are sent off into the unknown to complete some set "business". All races take on different design changes, though all take on the same potential boost.

* Saiyan - Skin turns grey, sclera turn black, irises turns the victims ki colour, hair turns black (if not already), thick ki coloured lines spread around the body that glow when releasing energy.
* Human - Skin turns grey, sclera stay white, pupils disappear, irises turn the victims ki colour, hair turns black (if not already), entire body will always be highlighted in a very thin ki coloured auraline.
* Namekian - Skin turns black, pupils and irises disappear, sclera turn the victims ki colour, body grows it's own bio armor automatically.
* Frieza Race - Skin turns black, secondary skin turns the victims ki colour, pupils and irises disappear, sclera turn the victims ki colour, shell turns light black, gem colour darkens slightly.
* Majin - Skin turns black, pupils and irises disappear, sclera turns the victims ki colour, markings appear on the victims face, markings are coloured the invert of the victims ki colour.
* Bio-Android - Skin turns a light black, spots turn black, pupils and irises disappear, sclera turns the invert of the victims ki colour, more horns grow.
* Demon - Skin turns black, sclera turn the invert of the victims ki colour, irises turn the victims ki colour, hair turns light black (if not already), height increase.

### Mutation

If an infectant did not comply with the infection and was forced to be slain in order to be infected then upon being brought back to life their body will receive anywhere from small to mass mutations. An example of this is Alpheus. Alpheus was slain by losing a quarter of his face, and upon being brought back to life a mutated tissue began to form where the missing part of his face was, however it was not done forming as it continued to spread all the way down to his left shoulder and covered his mouth and nose, and even turned his antenna into massive mutated horns.

## **Success or Failure**

Upon being infected with UMVII-74-9, multiple things may happen. The most common thing that happens is the victim becomes fully infected and becomes an Umbrian. Another possibility is that the victim may be infected partially but is unable to fully spread throughout the body, or it simply chooses not to spread anymore than it has as it does not deem it's host "worthy". Anyone who experiences the last two results will result in creation known as a Penumbrian. If an Umbrian impregnates somebody or has a child of their own it will form an Antumbrian

### Umbrian

An Umbrian is a victim who has been accepted by the virus and has become 100% infected. They take on the appears of all the previous traits listed above and can no longer think for themselves, instead they are either forced to adventure off into the unknown to complete set tasks, or are forced to follow the current host of UMVII-H and follow his every order, but most certainly must protect him with their lives. Umbrians despise Penumbrians as they see them as failures and believe they should be slain. The host of UMVII-H is not like this however, as they see Penumbrians as all the same as an Umbrian, but they simply require more effort.

### Penumbrian

Penumbrians are the failed versions of Umbrians. They receive a significantly less power/ potential boost than an Umbrian would and only take on a select few features listed above, or they take on failed versions of those changes. Penumbrians will *not* be forced by the Umbrian Virus's commands, but rather they will simple feel the urge to follow, and although they may do sometimes, this does not mean that they will always follow orders.

### Antumbrian

Antumbrians are the result of an Umbrian having a child. When an Umbrian is detected to have a second life form living inside of him their UMVII-74-9 will become inactive, causing the Umbrian to revert to their original state. During this time, the virus will duplicate itself into two as one reactivates to turn its host back into an Umbrian whereas the second one will travel through the body and into the second life form. Unlike the regular UMVII-74-9, this virus will grow with the child, meaning that when they are birthed they still take on the changes listed above, but in a less significant manor (E.G Skin not exactly dark enough, sclera only taking on slight bit of ki colour, ECT) They will also be more prone to learning Umbrian Abilities instead of racial abilities to due the virus growing with them creating a more stable connection. When the virus grows with it's host it is instead titled as "UMVII-74-9-B"

Antumbrians are able to learn any technique an Umbrian would be able to and take on the exact same boost in strength and potential, however because the virus is always combating the changes in the body as it grows inside of the original Umbrian these Antumbrians are actually not forced into the virus' subconscious commands, however they are extremely urged to, sometimes even following it subconsciously as if the virus has taken over their consciousness for a moment.

> NOTE: If an Penumbrian has a child then it will result in a regular baby as the virus's growth has become stagnant in the person's body. However, if an Antumbrian has a child then it will still result in another Antumbrian.

## **Curing UMVII-74-9?**

Currently, there is no known way to cure somebody of UMVII-74-9, be it Umbrian, Penumbrian or Antumbrian. Technically, it could be cured by pulling the virus out from ones body however this is seemingly not possible without killing the victim as the virus spreads throughout the *entire* body. The only case of an infectant return back to their original state (besides impregnation) is Alpheus when Adriel died, however Alpheus soon returned to being an Umbrian as the virus was simply going through a phase of evolution.

## **List of Infectants**

### Umbrian Infectants

DM Empyreus#6763 to be added to the list if you have been infected.

## **Quotes**

> "Why do you force yourself to be secluded from such a thing? There is a new realm of possibilities with us, waiting for you to test out each and every one of them. Come, don't be afraid of bliss..."

- Alpheus, convincing somebody into becoming an Umbrian.

## **Trivia**

* The name "UMVII" stands for "Umbrian (UM) Virus (VI) Infection (I)" whereas the -74 resembles the year it was created in and the -9 resembles the century it was created in. The -H simple stands for "Host" and the -B stands for "Birthed".
* The names "Umbrian, Penumbrian and Antumbrian" all come from the different parts of shadows, that being the Umbra (The innermost and darkest part of the shadow), the Penumbra (The region where an object is only partially obscured) and the Antumbra (The region from which the occluding body appears entirely within the disc of the light source).

* UMVII-74-9 was previously known as "The Dark Race" as named by Adriel. This was changed by Empyreus after receiving full ownership of the race as it was far to simple and unoriginal.
* In terms of lore, there used to be numerous Penumbrians because of Adriel disobey the virus's command and not many Umbrians. Eventually, these Penumbrians planned to revolt against Adriel and kill him, however he slaughtered every single one of them and only left Alpheus, his right hand man, alive.
