Anthemia is a U.S government created virus made for bio-warfare. Turning humans into killing machines against anything. After commencing human trials in Project Anthemia, further testing was needed, so the Human Trials Subject was locked in a cage and guarded. Eventually breaking out into the African, Asian, and European land-masses. Soon the Goliath strain was completed into a parasite.

Notes - The Excel virus is transmitted through air, and cannot infect animals. It started as a simple project meant to help cure cancer and several other diseases. It was in the form of a mist, where it infects and reproduces in your T cells. It makes the T cells stronger, but it also gets to the brain, making it a little dull, prehistoric, even. It infects every single muscle cell from there, making it completely strong. A single excel virus alone can throw a Motorcycle, even. Excel virus can only be transmitted through air, and because of it they have to tackle and "kiss" the other person, breathing into them. The process continues, infecting the entire Nation. However, due to such terrible amount of "life", the border control can handle the borders of your nation. Excel virus generally attacks based on their past sexuality (such as if it's a bi Excel Virus Zombie (EVZ), then they would attack anyone, hetero, homo, etc. etc.). Also, EVZ's can easily act like humans, even talk like them. Somehow, however, they lack the ability to open doors. They normally take on the personality of the past "body", but tend to forget important things like dates, pet peeves, and other small kinks that you remember, but they are pretty easy to forget.
And to go with my magnificent new virus, here is a nice little scenario using it, it's practice of course, so it doesn't exactly count. It's also very easy.
March 1st, 0600 hours: You are found in a simple encolsurement, where you bought a nice .47 colt for the shooting range (and as decor). You are living alone (and have had thoughts of suicide from sheer lonliness) which is revoked as you meet a surprisingly great lady. She liked everything you like, and she has even rounded "third base" with you a few times. Your small apartment in your 4 story apartment building seems to be enough for your small relationship. March 4th 1200 hours: Your relationship has been going great! But it seems as if you smelled another mans cologne on her. You put the thought off however, because you're just that lonely. March 8th 1420 hours: The cologne scent has gone from your lover but, you can't help but see...mold on her elbows? What is that? March 12th 1200 hours: She completely forgot your birthday today! What's going on? You think you'll have to leave her... March 15th 1230 hours: You heard of this new Excel virus, and learned that your lover keeps knocking and bashing on your door. You've seen them through motorcycles, why isn't she just smashing through? What the hell are you going to do?! She's been "kissing" all sorts of people, who are all attacking each other. It seems as if no one saw this coming, and all these people are just being infected. There's about 20 of them screaming to let me in outside.
Well first off, your protagonist is a whiny wuss, who expects someone to remember there birthday 11 days into a non-committed relationship?
That said, this is a strange situation. As the door hasn't been broken down, none of them are E-Zombies yet, though I guess they could be in the process of changing. The girl seems to be a carrier, and if that's true, I'm think I must have gotten the virus myself, rounding first.
But let's assume we hope for the best here.
Step one, is to use 60 grains of black powder to blow this girl away. Can't help but think she's something worse then the average zombie. Even if I'm wrong, she pissed me off.
The Colt .47 only holds six rounds though, so I can't plan on fighting them all.
So, gather whatever vital supplies I have and open the window that leads to the fire escape. Turn on all the water, get the floor a few inches deep in water, then open the door.
As the girl was talking to me, I can assume she is near the front. Blow her head into seventeen separate parts. I then head out the window, using (hopefully) no more then three rounds on the fastest, more aware zombies (or people) coming thru the door. Zombie, or human, I don't care, with this virus, no one can be trusted.
As they stagger into the room, I wait until they spot me, then tip over the lamp, releasing voltage thru the water on the floor.
Not even gonna wait to see if that works though, heading down a floor, then two, using the last two or three rounds on any unexpected obstacles.
Sliding back into the second floor, I head for the stairs, and head for the basement. Once there, i reload my gun, and catch my breath.
Climbing up the coal chute, I come out of the building in a direction unexpected by the zombies above, and move several blocks away. Not too far, the streets are dangerous, but I find something with a few floors.
Checking to make sure no zombies see me, I slide into the building, and hope to find a safe place to hide.
Kind of basic, but not sure what else I should do...
