Alright so I was wondering how everyone would feel if we introduced the lesser version of the Legacy virus, Legacy-2 ? Maybe all those mutants held captive in the concentration camps were given the virus there by scientist? Then those who are rescued infect other's slowly but surely and well drama occurs to find a cure and save them :]
Legacy-1 and Legacy-2 searched for a target organism's "X-factor", the sequence of mutant genes that gave a mutant his/her superpowers. If it did not find an activated X-factor in the target, the viroid would die off, leaving the person completely unaffected. If, however, it did detect the X-factor, it would begin inserting introns (junk DNA sequences) into the transcription codings of the victim's mutant RNA, the process commonly being triggered after the patient used their powers for the first time after contracting the disease. The result was a major compromise of the replication and transcription process so disruptive as to eventually render the body incapable of creating healthy cells, ultimately resulting in the death of the victim.Symptoms:The net result was that a victim would eventually lose control of his superhuman powers. In addition to developing at a far slower rate than Legacy-1, victims of Legacy-2 developed skin lesions, fever, cough and overall weakness (Maybe we can alter the symptoms, making them more/less severe? )
Like always, input is always appreciated.
