Hyperdontia

The teeth in the Infected grow and can protrude from the mouth. Increases infectivity.

4DNA

Hyperosmia

Thinning of the nasal epithelium significantly heightens zombie sense of smell. Increases severity

8DNA

Hypocoagulability

Hypocoagulability is one of the symptoms presented in the branch of traits affecting the blood system in both Simian Flu and Shadow Plague. It causes significantly reduced ability of the blood to clot, which makes many patients bleed out. It will often cause death through exsanguination.

Hypotension

Low blood pressure deprives organs of oxygen and nutrients, increasing severity and causing profound fatigue.

6DNA

Immaturity

Hormone production altered which causes reduction in maturity. Lower levels of hygiene increase infection. (Neurax Worm) Reduction in hormone levels causes immature and antisocial behaviour, reducing cure research. Lower levels of hygiene cause infection. (Frozen Virus)

Immune Support

Supports the immune system to make it harder for other diseases to kill people that you infect.

2DNA

Immune Suppression

Pathogens attach to lymphocytes, suppressing immune system and allowing significantly greater freedom of mutation. Can be lethal

12DNA

Indulgence

Leptin blockers causes hosts to lose self-control and do all sorts of things they wouldn't normally do. Increases infectivity

8DNA

Inflammation

Inflammation obstructs bodily processes. Swelling can obstruct breathing and be fatal

5DNA

Insanity

Neuropathic action of the pathogen in the frontal cortex causes severe emotional and behavioural abnormalities. Significantly harder to cure

18DNA

Insomnia

Inability to sleep makes people irritable and less productive

2DNA

Internal Haemorrhaging

Arterial membranes break down, causing rapid internal bleeding and death

12DNA

Internal Haemorrhaging (Shadow Plague)

Arterial membranes break down, causing rapid bleeding and death

6DNA

Intoxication

Opioid adjustments encourage overindulgence, as well as saying silly things. Increases infectivity but reduces happiness due to hangover

11DNA

Jaundice

Accelerated viral reproduction in the liver results in bilirubin build-up, causing yellowing of skin, eyes and mucus membranes. Increases infectivity

6DNA

Jealousy

Tendrils mesh with frontal cortex, causing feelings of dissatisfaction with life and constant comparisons with others. Significantly reduces happiness

8DNA

Joint Pain

Inflammation in the joints causes pain when moving. Decreases chance of infection due to reduced movement.

1DNA

Joy

Endorphin surge fills host with contentment and happiness, making them run around singing. Significantly increases infectivity

10DNA

Jugular Bite

The infected feel an urge to go and bite others on the neck, specifically targeting the jugular. Increases infectivity

Latent Adaptation

Pathogen repeatedly alters the proteins of its cell wall helping to prevent an immune reaction. Significantly harder to cure.

23DNA

Laughter

Hormone adjustments trigger joke-telling. Increases infectivity.

9DNA

Love

Oxytocin stimulation emphasises feelings of love when around family and friends. Significantly increases infectivity and happiness.

15DNA

Lumbrical Hypertrophy

Significantly strengthens zombie grip making it nearly impossible for prey to break free. Severity significantly increased.

10DNA

Malignant Ascites

Accumulation of fluid in abdominal cavity due to severe cirrhosis. Can be lethal

16DNA
