User:Impurest Cheese/Zombie Syndrome


 * Zombie Syndrome is caused by a drop in brain function caused by an extended cryogenic sleep.

Trigger

 * Due to the limmited nature of slipspace technology travelling long distances in space takes a long time. Cryogenic storage is a short term method to keep individuals young and healthy on long space journeys. In the case of craft unable to travel through Slipspace cryogenic storgae can lead to the loss of sentiance and a regression to animal instinct thus creating a dangerous and disturbed individual when woken. Individuals inflicted by this syndroe were classified as zombies and were kept hidden by ONI.

Zombies

 * While outwardly simular to the species it once was the zombie lacks the spark of sentiance leaving them with a base intelligance and animal instinct. Despite this they can be trained and easily manipulated by a chrismatic or powerful individual even to the point of being used as a rudimentry attack force. Observations have shown pack hunting behaviour although no distinct goal or aims seemed to be set and the attack determined by the endurance of individuals not the group.
