One of the biggest questions in the outbreak was where the virus actually came from. There were many theories thrown around, ranging from terrorist activity to a government research project gone horribly wrong. But only a few people actually knew the truth, and those who did would never admit it to the public.
In the years leading up to the outbreak a new company had emerged called Aphrodite Pharmaceuticals. Not a lot of people knew about it, a few times they produced some vaccines or medicines, but the leadership under Doctor Abigail Barnes were doing experiments on a formula they had discovered they referred to as the Elixir of Youth. Most of the details were kept secret from the average person working at the company however, and as such experiments were done in secret.
But these experiments had an unexpected side-effect. No one is sure if it interacted with a virus a test subject was infected with, or if it was an effect of the serum itself. But this is where the first outbreak of the Bimbo Virus began. The first infection was quietly hidden away by the company after a small town basically fell to the virus.
So, what happened that caused this full on outbreak? Aphrodite has grown larger in power, and with the outbreak in full swing, they are using this as an opportunity to perfect their serum. And perhaps get something more, as a number of their leadership are showing physical traits of being a bimbo, but don't lose their intelligence.
What kind of future will this mean for the world if they get away with it? And what story will you follow?
