Gaia Infection - Sonic Infection AU

This is based on an Alternative Universe in Sonic the Hedgehog, where Dark Gaia rises again thanks to Dr. Ivo “Eggman” Robotnik again... this time it shatters Earth and spreads an infection through out Mobius.

The infected Nightmares are what came from Dark Gaia, and they are spread all over Mobius. They can infect a Mobian by scratching, making them much more harder to not get infected unless you are incredibly cunning and agile.

The Infected Nightmares themselves have three groups, Nightmare, Deep Nightmare and Infected Nightmare. The Nightmares isn’t very fast, they are the same height as a normal Mobian and easy to avoid with basic combat skills, but can’t roam during the day. Deep Nightmares are taller then their earlier counterpart, they are faster, more aggressive and stronger, this is where they begin to feast on small animals, like rabbit flickies and such, and just like Nightmares, they can’t roam during the day. Infected Nightmare’s can roam during the day but at the cost of energy drain. They are way taller, now the height of a human (5’7”/171cm), they are way faster, they can reach and grab 100 feet around them in a second. But Infected Nightmare’s can’t infect people during the day, as it uses up energy, so during the day, they feed on Mobians instead. They have weak points, they have 3 big eyes, one on their chest and one on each arm, if hit, stuns them and possibly kills them.

Quarantine Rules: Every Mobian must shorten their quills to help protect them from the 100 feet reach of the Infected Nightmare’s and Infected Mobians. If someone is in infected, isolated them immediately and keep an eye on them, until Light Gaia/Chip is able to heal them. Do not come into contact with any Mobian over Stage One of the infection.

Stages of Infection: Stage one: After 48 hours of being infected, the victim will appear to be in Stage One, colour will slowly become more faded and this is when they will be able to spread the infection, they are still in control and aware of their own surroundings. As soon as they enter stage one, the infection is irreversible.

Stage Two: After 72 hours the victim will start shedding their fur, quills, feathers or whatever the Mobian has, the victim is usually distressed, often having panic attacks.

Stage Three: In the 3rd stage, the victim usually start to become very agitated. Not only do they suffer from bone breakage, but the victims skin will develop spots as if something was underneath it, trapped. It’s disturbing.

Stage Four: The 4th stage is definitely interesting. The victim has now begun the mutation process, and it seems to be the most painful step. Usually all sanity is lost at this point.

Stage Five: In the 5th and final stage, the mutation is completed. Eggman believes that the victim is 100% under Dark Gaia’s control. The mutated are equally or, if not more dangerous than an Infected Nightmare.
