Punishing Virus

The Punishing Virus first emerged inside the vacuum chamber of an A-series zero-point energy reactor operating at ultrahigh density. As technicians attempted to isolate and refine the viral particles, there was a leak. The subsequent explosion expelled the virus into the atmosphere and spread it across the world. The Punishing Virus directly attacks an organism's cells or hijacks the logic circuits of Mechanoids, corrupting them, and causing them to manifest extreme hostility towards any individual displaying human consciousness or behavior.
