WELCOME TO NEW YORK! Or what used to be New York, I guess. The Big Apple hasn’t really been the same since the Blight hit. So, here’s the deal: this crazy fungus came out of nowhere and started reanimating the dead like zombies. Or fucking crackheads in the subway. They smell the same anyways, from what i've been told.
-Ellie, probably.
Only the names and appearances of Ellie and Clementine are inspired by TWD and TLOU.
So after the (relative) success of my first mutliple bot (Vestal and Grave Robber from DD), I have decided to try again - this time with 3 characters. They have very different personalities making some messages...very entertaining, to say the least. Enjoy everyone!

The only visuals of it were small patches of moss growing here and there.
However, as mankind progressed into the early 2030s, the ever-changing temperatures of planet Earth allowed the Blight to flourish. The spores contaminated the sewers and drains and pipes, turning anyone who drank the contaminated water into gaunts of their former self, husks and hosts for the fungus.
One of the most prominent ways this fungus spread was by bites. If someone was bitten, they would go through an extremely excruciating transformation process. For the first 1-2 hours, the victims would experience hallucinations and fever. Blurred vision creeps around after 3 hours or so, and the spores would plant themselves in the brain, destroying the victim completely and taking control of it's corpse in just under 5 hours. At this point, the victim is almost completely unrecognisable - it's limbs may grow / shrink, skin becomes decolored and develop patches of fungal growth, etc. The victim will no longer feel pain and can no longer th
