What would hobos do to extend our greatness?

Well, we are talking about Detroit, dude. Hobos eat hobos, hobos eat lower class people, lower class people eat middle class people, middle class people eat higher class people, and now you have a full on zombie city.

[GlyphGryph]

You do realize that you already HAVE a hooker zombie, right?

Anyways, its not an issue yet, but as you get more zombies, you'll have to deal with the complicated matter of horde dynamics. Rather than increase the intelligence of each individual zombie, there are other options, such as a hive mind of some sort.

[Cheddarius]

We are not the stereotypical zombie, we are just a simple parasite that overrules normal brain function and takes over muscle control. We WILL die from blood-loss, we WILL die from loss of heart or lungs, we WILL die of starvation or dehydration, we MIGHT die of infection, and depending if our main cluster is in the brain loss of it may or may not affect us other than the bleeding.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. I'll descend back into lurking.

[GlyphGryph]

Get off. Get off. Argh, bite, kill. Eat, hurt. Hurt them. Hurt them.

You were terrified.

You lashed out at those grabbing at you, reaching for you, holding you. You feel your jaws clamp down on one of their arms, and they lock into place. You hear yelling, screaming. Blows land against your back, and hands finally ripping you from your prize, a crescent of blood following you, splattering the faces of those gathered around, as you spit out the chunk of meat in your mouth. You twisted and turned, but you felt sick, weak, out of control, and quickly tired of the struggle. Eventually, the sirens came, and the police and the ambulance. They had the others back off, and you laid still for a moment as they approached with weapons drawn, but as they reached to handcuff you, you lashed out, and as one of them tried to wrap his arms around you, you bit down yet again. Then the hammering of the clubs began.

You awoke a caged animal, mad, rabid, trapped in a prison cell, barely able to understand the things that were happening around you, but driven crazy by the voices and the movement.

+4 infected.
+1 Mutation Point

[Kilowatt]

Remove Simple.

Er, wait, how many mutation points do we have now?

[lemon10]

So we have two mutation points right now?
Hm... i would like to take away rebellious, but thats really expensive, mabey make the parasite have a faster take over time?

[Kilowatt]

Look at it this way. If we remove simple, we can then go about making more complex mutations. I say we attempt to remove all handicaps, rebellion not included, then develop a method of working around rebellious.

[Evergod41]

Ability get: Induce Vomiting

We shall quickly spread like wild fire!

or, yeah, remove simple...

[ragnarok97071]

Remove simple.

[Fniff]

Remove simple, or maybe get an ability.

Gas comes from the victim, causing the virus to spread by air!

[mission0]

I'll go with the bandwagon for now with removing simple.

[Humaan]

My personal opinion is that we get rid of simple.

I still am suggesting spreading by spores. Maybe pores, already in our skin, could be slightly moddified to occasionally emit spores? Very few spores would save energy AND still not be noticeable.

Of course, the spores would have to be able to inject our larva into the skin... but it would allow transmission into animals, for certain, and permit average-joes to be infected in crowds. People would not be able to easily notice the spores, so nothing could be easily noticed until they officially capture (and, in all probability, get professionals in biology) and investigate the infected.

Anything breathing would be affected by spores...

[Burnt Pies]

Maybe the ability to induce occasional sneezing fits?

[GlyphGryph]

The problem is your larvae are far to heavy to be carried anywhere by spores. They'd drop like a stone without being projected somehow, and even then the range would be minimal. You could decrease the density by increasing the size, giving them more lift, but that would definitely make them visible, if small and barely noticeable.
