Brenner Virus

The Brenner Virus (sometimes known as BV or 'The Alorian Plague". Known in scientific circles as KI-38).

The virus originated in the Province of Kentori and is a mutation of the sheep infection KI-37 which has tormented Alorian farmers for centuries. A scientist named Dr. Steven Brenner was experimenting with KI-37 in an attempt to find a cure. He was trying to create a less serious form of KI-37 in order to teach the sheep's immune system how to fight the virus without killing it. It was a success but the new virus ("KI-38") although safe to sheep was extremely lethal to humans. On Bogmas day 2585 Gabrielle Adams (35) died of a mysterious infection in Calliope, Kentori after exhibiting symptoms of shortness of breath, chronic pins and needles and cramping as well as strange yellow sores on the skin. Doctors investigating the death found he had died of an infection similar to KI-37. Mr. Adams died a few weeks after a loss of containment at Dr. Brenner's laboratory four months earlier.

Mr. Adams is the reported death of BV however Doctors investigating found roughly 40 other unexplained deaths of similar symptoms in the Calliope area in teh last four months. All are now attributed to BV
