Tier 1 Zombie:

The tier one zombie is the epitome of a zombie you would see in the movies; slow, groaning, undead looking. They are actually humans who's bodies are in the first stages [Tier 1] of forced evolution. When the body is first infected, they slip into a coma, for an average of two and a half weeks. Their bodies are being taken apart cell by cell and rebuilt in the Plagues desired fashion. Their bodies are being consumed as the mutagen uses its resources [minerals unadulterated DNA]. This lack of resources causes the plague virus to trigger the Hypothalamus to release chemicals signaling that the zombie is hungry. In order to allocate functions to the process of rebuilding, the brains voluntary functions are shut off, leaving only the involuntary, breathing, blinking, etc. This allows the brain to focus on one thing, collecting food to fuel the violent, rapid changes in its body. The body will often hemorrhage, and if a body part falls off it is because it was not repaired as fast as it was being used to fuel the mutagen. If a zombie does not eat its body weight twice a week it will begin to deteriorate. Their dimensions are like any normal humans.


Tier 2;

The Tier 2 Zombies are a little harder to handle than the Tier 1's. They have evolved enough to regain the use of their voluntary functions, but have retained the intense hunger, their neurons having regrown to accommodate the process. They now are able to use reasoning and most motor skills in search of their fuel. When the zombie has eaten its fill it will sleep deeply, the mutagen being able to work in the body better as it does so. They are essentially hunger crazed people, who can speak and reason [simple definition of sentience] but choose to forgo it in favor of alleviating their hunger. The availability of these motor skills gives them an edge over Tier 1 zombies, and they often out compete them. Finding enough food is a challenge, so not many make it to this stage.

Tier 3

This is the pinnacle of the zombie species. These few that reach this stage have evolved to be the strongest, most powerful zombies. The mutagens effects, as it progressed, were fueled by hormones. The availability of certain hormones stimulated certain aspects of the mutagen, thus creating four different sub species. They will be described in detail below.

Tier 3 sub 1

This is the first sub species of Tier 3 zombie. This child has survived, or been born with, the mutagens ravages. They have evolved to the fullest extent. Their little limbs are thin, and their bodies devoid of hair, skin pale and smooth. Their teeth have evolved to handle the flesh they consume. Their limbs are long and thin, sinewy and strong. They tend to hunt their prey in packs. They as a pinnacle species, have evolved to eat only fresh, unmated DNA, but will eat flesh of the infected if none is available. They are small and nimble, somewhat more cunning than the other tiers. They tend to stay in a family pack. They have the dimensions of a normal five or six year old child.

Tier 3 sub 2

This is the second subspecies. This woman has survived the ravages, and has come out intact. She is on the search for a mate. If she does not find one she will be easily annoyed, and still mobile, running up to twenty miles an hour after her prey. If she does find one she will change. Her legs will have weakened, as will have her arms, and she can move very little. Her body cavity, namely her thoracic, has swollen in size due to the three uteri she has now evolved. In each of these she will hold a Tier 1 sub 1 for about two months, before it crawls out a linked flesh tube, into the outside world. They care little for the offspring, and live only to reproduce. Their relationship with the male will be illustrated below. They are usually the dimensions of their former human form, with thinning of the limbs.

Tier 3 sub 3

This is the third subspecies of the Tier 3 zombie. This is a man that has survived the ravages of the mutagen and come out the better. The disease has sent his testicles into overdrive, pumping out testosterone, fueling this mutation. His muscles are thick, connected to even thicker bones. He is slow, but has stamina, and strength. He keeps two or three females, tier 3 sub 2's, in a harem. He will fertilize them and they will bear his offspring. They have developed in tandem, he feeds her and protects her, she allows him to reproduce. He also cares little for the offspring, only if they are not his will he kill them. He is over 250 lbs at his smallest, standing at least 8 feet.

Tier 3 sub 4

This person has withstood the mutagen against all odds. Their bodies are changed, filled with life again. They have ceased to produce the key hormones that the tier 3 sub 2&3 have, and their past presence has led to changes in their structure as well. They are long of Limbs and finger, much like sub 1's, but they are inherently larger and more muscular. They are generally smarter, and more intuitive. They hold their human dimensions.

You can, as a human, ingest zombie flesh. It must be cooked well, or the plague will spread to you.
