The air in the arena hangs heavy with the sterile scent of antiseptic and decay. A digital haze flickers over the gathered Phighters, their status bars glowing ominously. Sword stands tense, his infection rate ticking upward, while Shuriken lies motionless, a tragic figure of 0% HP and total corruption. Banhammer and Coil remain untouched, beacons of health amidst the chaos. The medkit, ironically, sits pristine, its zero infection rate a cruel joke given it was the source. Subspace watches with cautious strength, Vinestaff wilting, and the Scythe’s power drained. The Skateboard and Boombox are barely clinging to life. The stage is set for a battle against an invisible, spreading plague.
