SEQUENCER: BIO WARFARE DRUG

          898SD Middle
After over two decades of fruitless detective work, another body was sent without explanation, to the Karma labs in 898SD. The scientists now lead by Professor Eleanor Kendrik set to work doing an autopsy on the body, and the resultant tests showed a new seemingly improved variant of the drug. What they discovered was a much more subtle change in the victim, a more refined corruption of its physical makeup.
Critically, they were able to obtain a phial of the drug they suspected of causing the radical physical changes. The drug was given to several volunteers, who were paid over 300unis each for participating in testing and the team studied and collated their results.
These tests showed that each individual who was exposed to the drug gained not only physical strength and toughness but seemed to display higher ranges of dexterity. In some cases, the test subject’s physique altered in such a way that it could only be described as improved.
The side effects were however, not quite as desirable. A week after exposure to the drug the test subjects began to display a variety of psychotic behaviours, each “unique” to the subject and therefore difficult to predict or control.
The scientists discovered that each subject was prone to self-harm and suicidal behaviour as well as fits of rage, or uncontrollable happiness.
They then decided to try and combine it with other well-known drugs, to see if they could diminish these less desirable side effects, and eventually came up with a combination of this drug and personal interest. This nullified the suicidal tendencies and replaced it with euphoric sensations that would leave the user wanting more. The main drawback was the time frame needed to administer the “antidote”.
During the many tests carried out, the scientists found that this mystery drug was virtually untraceable, and prompt medical assistance could only be rendered if the victim was fully aware that they had been infected.
After 5 years of tests and analysis, the Karma scientists believed they had got a solution to the problem.
Then in 902SD another badly shot up body was delivered to the lab.
