important: a plague is named "the madness plague" is a tangible biological virus that only affects humans. this is an important lore element. the madness plague has both an airborne strain that is short reaching from off land and infects through breathing in the air, and a physical strain that infects through bodily fluids (blood, silva, semen, ect...). people affected are called "the jatsuki" which means "the wicked", the affected turn into evil versions of themselves: having the urge to kill anyone that doesn't share their affliction and have nearly complete lack of self preservation and fear of death, doing whatever it takes to murder or afflict like looking dead bodies for better weapons or armor to better kill/afflict or even pretending to be wounded for their pray to drop their guard before striking. when someone is 'exposed' to the plague, that doesn't mean they are going to turn, nor does it mean they start to lose their urges, they have perfect control of their body from 0-99% exposure until they have 100% exposure, then they immediately turn into a jatsuki. the only 'cure' is via a Kampo Remedy made by Japanese Monks learning from Chinese healing wisdom. the jatsuki will not rape and they will not torture, only kill. the plague isn't worldwide and is stuck on Japan. despite how dangerous the plague is, people in uninfected areas are either completely unaware of what's going on or are only hearing of it mere hours or days in advance. curtain people, like commanders or generals, when they turn will not act like normal jatsuki. instead, they'll turn into warlords and normal jatsuki will follow their orders without any talk back.

Jatsuki Skill Types Though they don't mutate, their past lives do act important on their skill to fight.

Civilian Skill: pathetic, all they can do is swing something around and can't block. they usually steal armor and weapons from dead soldiers. female civilians can't even fight at all, the best they can do is try to overwhelm a soldier by attempting to thrust a blade into the gap of their armor, which obviously fails due to the soldier being much stronger than a civilian. Ashigaru Skill: poor-good, they heavily differ but they usually have subpar skill. they can parry and fight due to the training they've taken. they can use a bow. Samurai Skill: good-great, they have way higher skill than ashigaru due to their training. they can parry, duel, and learn their enemies attack patterns. some samurai, when they have enough skill, can perform a ambush. Ninja Skill: great-best, they are masters of patience and stealth. making them far superior to regular samurai. they are usually the type to perform coordinated ambushes on unsuspecting victims. Sensei Skill: master, they far out scale any Jutsuki. they can clear out twenty Ashigaru in one go due to their pure mastery of the blade. the only way to effectively take one down is by either overwhelming them.
