Unnamed Bio-Virus

The unnamed biovirus, or K5-63 Virus as humans call it, is a bioengineered alien substance that was first discovered on the OSI-controlled research colony of Trichi of the Tau3 Eridani System. The blob-like substance seemed to rebuild and reanimate a variety of lifeforms as well as the ability to aerosolize after infection of a host. Originally harmless, K5-63, turned into one of the deadliest virus' in the galaxy after humanity started altering its structure without any knowledge of how it worked.

Infection

K5-63 can infect other life forms on contact of the original substance. After infecting an unaware host, K5 can simply be spread by breathing particles into the air. While supposedly designed for use on simple, single-celled organisms, it is effective on multi-cellular life as well. In humans, it spreads internally and starts altering its host through a process that may take several weeks before symptoms start to appear.
