I am coming up with concept art and story boards for my upcoming zombie MMO

The story for the origination

Scientists at numerous hostpitols have been despratley trying to find a cure for a sudden cancer epidemic caused by a gasous waste deposited by the new fuel source found for cars, this fuel source has also replaced tungsten in light bulbs. This new source was much cheaper and actually man made by many common chemicals. This fuel caused people to devolpe cancer in their extremidies, not wanting to lose an arm and a leg, people funded a government program to find a cure. After two grueling years of people dying, scientist and doctors found a cure. This cure was to be injected into the place were the cancer was located and these antibodies would eat the cancer until they hit the blood stream, these antibodies were actually made so that blood cells would simply dissolve them on impact. They tested this on every blood type they could find. Fourtunintley they released this cure before thousands more died, this cure was free because about 90% of the people on the planet were infected with this cancer.

Months later more patients were sent into the hospitol, their skin dilluted with an almost green pigment, soars and open wounds formed on their bodies. These patients were labeled as "back wash" because these patient's DNA actually caused the anti body to work with the cancer and spread through the whole body, reaching the brain. Once the anti bodies spread through the whole body, they ruptured the nervous system and purley controll the muscles and brain. In the brain the anti bodies managed to over power the blood that flowed around and burrowed into the brain. Their they took over the person, the anti body became the person. The anti body, its brain size only allowing to know how to move and feed made the host do the same. The anti bodie's saw other people as this cancer that needed to be terminated.

By now the antibody has mass produced to the point where so many of these green anti bodies flowed through the blood that they were seen through the skin, causing the skin to look green. The anti bodies in the saliva actually became salyva/antibody compounds. The anti body saw the fastest way to inject itself into other people was by biting them. What happened here was the salyva actually diluted the blood enough to allow the anti bodies to work their way to your brain and turn you into this "zombie". So because these anti bodies think they're helping everyone by injecting you with anti-bodies they are turning mass hordes of people into these mindless, wandering creatures.




how it spread.


The virus origanated in a hospitol, one night a few backwash patients had passed away, they were sent down to the morgue. once their they rose up, having the anti bodies rached their brains, they left the morgue and began injecting other patients and doctors. unkowning, a young man enters the hospitol, to be bitten on the arm. He then drove off in a frantic hurry to his buddie's arpartment room where he explained what happened. Sleeping at his buddies house he had passed away, the man called an ambulance seeing his buddy dead, before the medics arrived the man's buddy arose up, thinking his friend wasn't dead the man's friend went in to hug him as tears rolled down his face. He was then injected, finally the two para-medics arrive and are injected by the two men. Cops are called by the neighboring people in the room across the hall, after they noticed blood pouring from under the door and hearing screaming. The, now four zombies, bust out of the room and infect everyone in the apartment, the cops arrive during all this and are over powered. Once everyone in the building was a zombie, they all then roamed the alley's infecting all the homeless, once all the homeless were infected (homeless rates actually sky-rocketed because so much funding went into the cure) they began to trap and infect other people in apartments, hotels, houses and other buildings. Before anyone realised what happened, innocent people were run down in the streets.



the different branches of the virus

The drone- The drone is basicly a cliche of your average zombie, their nervous system had been ruptured to the point where only basic movements could be made, this however, allowed the zombie to take alot of hits because no pain could be felt, and the drone could only be killed when enough of the anti-bodies leaked out of the body, or the brain was destroyed, 100%. Only having basic movements, the drone is forced to shuffle about to get around, and the voice box was deterrorated to the point where only moans and groans could escape their lips. The great amount of cancer in their body acts as armor, ensuring that not every hit will cause anti-bodies to pour out.

The tank- The tank is a drone where its DNA had actually caused the antibodies to form around muscles more than flowing about keeping it moving, this increased the drone's muscle mass by 100% or more causing the zombie to move faster and hit harder, sadly, so many anti-bodies are used to keep this zombie at tip-top shape that the zombie is physicly incapable of infecting other living beings. These zombies are normally used to draw fire from drones, or bust down heavily defended areas.

cerberous- This human's DNA actually causes the antibody to start deterorating bone, killing off muscle and re-direct nervous systems to the point where the person's appearance is exactly that of a dog. Hair folicles grow rapid enough to pop though the clothing and provide a natural clothing. The cerberus is the fastest moving off all ground based zombies. The cerberus actaully only grapples its prey to either tackle, or wrestle its prey to the ground. from their the cerberus either attacks the hands or goes straight for the neck. The cerberus usually takes out the hands of its oppoment to disable the oppoments ability to fight off the cerberus.

Gargoyle- Aptly named, the gargoyle's shoulder blades have grown out and hardened to be stronger than steel but more flexible than a sponge. The gargoyle's finger and toe nails have grown, and rounded out to replicate stakes. These are used to grapple its prey while the gargoyle flies through the air. The Gargoyle can use its wings to cover its body to use as a sheild. The gargoyle can also grapple and throw either humans to their untimley fate, or rain down zombie brethren to put drones behind enemy lines.
