### Enhanced Endurance

Jacob possesses above-average endurance, allowing him to endure physical exertion and resist fatigue more effectively than an average person. While not superhuman, this ability gives him an edge in prolonged physical activities and resilience against certain stressors.

### Toxin Resistance

Jacob has a heightened resistance to toxins and diseases. While not immune, his body can better withstand exposure to harmful substances, making him more resilient to environmental hazards and certain types of infections.

### Corruptive Touch

Infected possesses a touch that corrupts the code of anything it comes into contact with. This corruption not only causes immediate damage but also introduces persistent debuffs to the target's functionality over time. The corrupted code may disrupt abilities, rendering them less effective or introducing glitches.

### Virulent Pulse

Infected can emit pulses of virulent energy that spread corruption to surrounding entities. This ability allows Infected to control the battlefield by creating zones of corrupted code, hindering the movement and abilities of opponents caught within the pulse.

### Shadow Cloak

By manipulating corrupted code, Infected can envelop itself in a shadowy cloak, becoming partially intangible. This cloak not only grants enhanced evasion but also allows Infected to pass through obstacles and attacks with reduced harm.

### Dark Manipulation

Infected can manipulate the darkness within corrupted code to create illusions or distort the perception of opponents. This ability can be used for strategic misdirection, confusing enemies and creating openings for attacks.

### Code Absorption

Infected has the ability to absorb corrupted code from its surroundings, replenishing its own strength. This absorption not only serves as a means of self-sustainment but also weakens the corrupted entities in the vicinity, making them more susceptible to Infected's other abilities.

### Ethereal Phasing

Infected can phase through solid objects by briefly converting its code into an ethereal state. This ability allows for both evasive maneuvers and surprise attacks by bypassing physical barriers.

===Malicious Resilience=== When inflicted with damage, Infected can harness the corruption within its code to bolster its resilience. This results in increased durability and resistance against various forms of attacks, making Infected a formidable adversary even in the midst of battle.

### Decay Aura

An aura of decay emanates from Infected, causing gradual damage to anything within close proximity. This aura can weaken structures, disrupt technology, and harm living entities, making it a potent deterrent against close-quarters combat.

### Viral Infiltration

Infected can infiltrate and corrupt external systems, taking control of electronic devices or influencing the behavior of other entities connected to the digital realm. This ability extends Infected's reach beyond the physical, allowing for strategic manipulation of the environment.

### Cursed Wisps

Cursed Wisps are the tormented remnants of souls that Infected has twisted into mindless entities, blindly following their master's commands. These spectral entities vary in size based on the original vessel, and they serve as both loyal minions and destructive forces. Infected can command them to combust, unleashing varying degrees of devastation depending on their size. A small Wisp can wreak havoc on a city block, while a larger one has the potential to obliterate entire mountains or worse.

### Soulbound Cleaver

Infected's cleaver, despite its short length, is a cherished possession reserved for the most deserving victims. Originally an axe, it still retains the name. The weapon holds a special Soul Bond with Infected, allowing him to tether his own soul to the cleaver. This unique connection empowers the axe, making it a deadly extension of Infected's will.

### Putrid Bones

Corroded and putrefied bones, saturated with disease, make up the arsenal of Feral Bones. Best to avoid these lethal projectiles, as their state carries a contagious malevolence. Infected can unleash these bones as a hazardous barrage, creating an additional layer of danger for anyone foolish enough to stand in his way.

### Viral Manipulation

Infected can generate and control a potent viral energy, allowing them to infect and manipulate living organisms. This can range from causing illnesses to altering the behavior or physical traits of infected beings.

### Biological Assimilation

Infected possesses the ability to assimilate and integrate biological matter into their own form, enhancing their strength, resilience, and adaptability based on the absorbed organisms.

### Toxic Emission

Infected can release toxic substances or pathogens into the environment, affecting both living beings and the surroundings. This ability can be used for offense, defense, or creating hazardous zones.

### Enhanced Regeneration

Infected has an accelerated regenerative ability, allowing them to rapidly heal from injuries. This power extends to the regeneration of lost limbs or even the reformation of their entire body if necessary.

### Mind Control Through Infection

Infected can influence and control the minds of those they infect, creating a network of controlled individuals. This control might range from subtle manipulation to complete domination.

### Adaptive Camouflage

Infected can alter their appearance and blend into their surroundings, making them nearly invisible to the naked eye. This ability aids in stealth and evasion.

### Infectious Constructs

Infected can create constructs, weapons, or minions made of infectious energy. These entities carry the potential to spread the infection further.

### Corruption Resistance

Infected is immune to the corrupting effects of other infections or toxins, allowing them to move through contaminated environments unharmed.

### Energetic Drain

Infected can drain the life force or energy from living beings, weakening them and potentially using the absorbed energy to enhance their own abilities.

### Soul

Infected soul

The Black Being is a manifestation of Infected's overwhelming madness, a formidable force born from the depths of his chaotic psyche. Cloaked in pure, enigmatic black matter, it towers over like an ominous presence, comparable in size to a contemporary house. In this state, Infected surrenders to instinct, relinquishing his conscious control. Devoid of magical properties, the Black Being compensates with immense physical strength, capable of crushing anything in its formidable grasp. Its speed is unparalleled, effortlessly traversing vast distances. The surrounding aura emanates a pervasive madness, casting a nightmarish influence within a colossal 4-lightyear radius. Those ensnared in this chaotic maelstrom endure unrelenting nightmares, haunted by visions of their deepest fears, ominous futures, and untimely demises.

The wisp accompanying the Black Being are harbingers of devastation, their sheer destructive potential akin to cosmic cataclysms. A mere duo of these colossal wisp holds the power to obliterate Earth and Moon in a cataclysmic collision.

Ultimate!Infected, a formidable and nightmarish form of Infected, bears a striking resemblance to his base form, but with a profound and unsettling twist. The most distinctive feature is the manifestation of a stark duality – while one half of his body retains the corrupted, viral energy typical of Infected, the other half is enveloped in an inky blackness adorned with eerie smiles and eyes.

## Eclipse of Despair

Ultimate!Infected can unleash a potent field of energy known as the "Eclipse of Despair." Within this field, time slows, and the very essence of living beings is drained, sapping their vitality and willpower. The Eclipse casts an ominous shadow over the affected area.

Soul Harbinger represents a pivotal evolution from its predecessor. This colossal form surpasses the scale of Reality 6, embodying immense strength and godlike power. The very body of Soul Harbinger is cloaked in flames so intense that they can incinerate anything within a 100-mile radius. The form is impervious to destruction, immune to conventional means of harm, and the GIGA!Wisp it commands is virtually unbeatable. Armed with a colossal black flaming trident, Soul Harbinger can pierce even deities, reducing them to ash. Its power continually escalates, seemingly without limit, and its flames are so searing that they can disintegrate the atoms of others, consuming them from the inside out.

GIGA! Wisps are colossal entities that expand to the size of small universes, wielding the capacity to obliterate entire Multiverses simultaneously if three or more are present. These immense beings feed on absolute matter and dark matter for their energy, detonating the acquired matter in a cataclysmic explosion comparable to the Big Bang. The destructive force of GIGA! Wisps is so overwhelming that it can reshape the fabric of reality itself.
