=======Back Story=======
(Work in progress, names are placeholders)
With the arrival of a new deadly pandemic, so came forth the visitation from The Friends (a name they insisted they be referred to for it was in that nature that they came).
The Friends explained that, with the innocent concern of a Good Samaritan who sees a distress signal and comes to offer help, such was the reason for their visit to Earth. With dire concern they told us that our planet glowed like an SOS in the galaxy. With a new pandemic rampant on Earth, as well as pollution and war, The Friends diagnosed Mankind as sick and dying, and they prescribed and offered freely their cure.
They offered a symbiotic relationship with an organism from their home planet. The organism would cure any virus, disease, or bacteria that entered the human body. It would also help to suppress negative feelings such as anger and jealousy. However, what was not said was that what could be suppressed could also be amplified. The Friends only had one request: the firearm (which they insisted to represent Mans cruelty) was to be destroyed.
Although all who suffered with illness accepted the organism; those who showed a natural immunity to the new disease refused. Feeling that not only had they no need for the organism, but they also strongly disliked the idea of it having the ability to control their feelings. A fact that the plagued may have felt for or against; but in the end, had no choice but to accept the organism. Soon The Symbiotic Government, which was created by those who carried the organism, was founded; for they felt they had risen above human flaw and demanded the authority to govern the future of Mankind. Soon, a social division was drawn between those who carried the organism and those who did not.
All who opposed the Symbiotic Government with its fearful love of domination were driven underground like rats, tolerated for a while until The Great Eradication: This movement proclaimed the Symbiotic Government was infected with insurrectionist disease with which it was determined to eradicate.
With the Symbiotic Governments shift from neutrality to hostility, so came the formation of the Resistance. An underground militia that was not only comprised of the immune but those who still suffered from illness but refused to harbor the organism. As it became increasingly difficult to control this last minority, the sentient organism finally boosted levels of rage and adrenaline to create a new savage-like race of humans.
Seven months after the first day of contact, Earth has now become occupied by the Necrotrophs; a name coined by the Resistance scientists to refer to those who harbor the organism that not only intends to kill its host over time, or at a moments notice if it resists, but also has full control over all sensations and consciousness. These Necrotrophs are merely the foot-soldiers of a collective consciousness. The fate of Mankind rests within this tug-of-war between the Necrotrophs and the Resistance.
