If you use this simulated parasite, be sure to credit me! The blood vine is a rapidly spreading parasite that the CDC has recently discovered in North America, Antarctica, and regions of Serbia. Fauna victims have 5 phases, with phase 0 being uninfected. When the parasite attaches itself in phase 1, the victim often experiences a brief, sharp pain; however, they will find themselves hard-pressed to find the source. The parasite disguises itself as veins until phase 5; the zombie phase. Blood Vines can function even when severed, as long as they have a living host that is larger or equal in size to them. Research shows that large clusters of Blood Vines may be forming germination pods to produce new variants, such as spore spreaders. A common misconception is that the blood vines located near the tear ducts in phase 4 are tears of blood. However, these blood vines actually settle under the eyebags of the infected.
