A corrupted is a person that has been infected by a symbiotic organism called Corruption. Corruption is a tar like substance that is found around swamplands and in some ghost cities.
Corruption will give the person a boost in stamina, strength, and speed, but it will cost them damage to their bodies the more they use it. When the corruption is not in use, the only sign of it being in the host, is having black blood.
When a host uses the Corruption, it will make their skin turn dark grey, make their skin crack and bleed, and cause the host to become animalistic in their actions.
The Life Span of a Corrupted is unchanged from the species they were before they were infected.
