[b]"The Worm is not a parasite. The Worm is a Gift. It brings unity, peace, and silence to the noisy mind."[/b]
This mod introduces the terrifying [b]Neurax Worm[/b] (inspired by [i]Plague Inc.[/i]) into RimWorld. It is not just a disease—it is a sentient Hive Mind that seeks to assimilate your colony.
The Creature: Neurax Worm
A highly aggressive parasitic lifeform genetically engineered to burrow into neural pathways.
[list]
[*] [b]Smart Aggression:[/b] Worms will hunt down healthy humans but are neutral towards those already infected.
[*] [b]Hive Mind:[/b] Worms and members of the Neurax Faction are allies. They will fight side-by-side.
[*] [b]Reproduction:[/b] Worms lay eggs (found in Ancient Dangers) and have a 75% chance to burst out of the corpse of an infected host upon death.
[/list]
The Infection
One bite is all it takes. The parasite burrows into the brain and manipulates the host.
[list]
[*] [b]Stage 1:[/b] The host acts normal. The antidote can slow the progress.
[*] [b]Stage 2 (>65%):[/b] The host hears the voice of the Deity. They will refuse to take the cure, claiming it is blasphemy.
[*] [b]Stage 3 (>80%):[/b] Complete fanaticism. The host may actively try to destroy your stock of antidotes.
[*] [b]Stage 4 (100%):[/b] [b]Total Assimilation.[/b] The colonist joins the Neurax Hive faction instantly and turns against you.
[/list]
The Cure
[list]
[*] [b]Pills (Neurax Antidote):[/b] Can be crafted at a Drug Lab. They reduce infection severity by 20% but cannot remove the worm completely if it has taken root.
[*] [b]Surgery:[/b] The only way to save a heavily infected colonist is the "Extract Neurax Worm" operation. Requires a skilled doctor and [b]20 Glitterworld Medicine[/b].
[/list]
New Content
[list]
[*] [b]New Faction:[/b] The Neurax Hive (Humans and Worms working together).
[*] [b]New Items:[/b] Neurax Meat (poisonous), Neurax Skin (purple leather), and Neurax Eggs.
[*] [b]Events:[/b] A unique intro event where the Hive offers you a "Gift". Choose wisely—refusal has consequences.
