Infected Human

Infected humans are living beings driven mad by the Contagion. Black tears smear the faces of these unfortunate souls. They are mindless killers bent on consuming the flesh of the living. Most die within 24 hours. A portion of those who perish then mutate into the even more dangerous jiangshi. At present, there is no known cure.
