What does Motor neurone disease affect in the body?

Answer 1

Stage 1: Initial infection. Victims will be rather itchy during this stage. From this stage forward, infected are considered as already lost. If symptoms are noticed, it is best to quarantine the victims immediately.

Stage 2: Small fluffy white spots will begin to appear on victim's skin, and salivation levels will increase rapidly. Extreme hunger has also been reported.

Stage 3: Spontaneously, the victim will be engulfed in an aggressively propagating fungus. The entire body will be covered in this material. The victim's blood will also begin to increase in temperature at a rapid rate, far past the normal blood temperature. Victims will often have a severe fever from this stage onwards.

Stage 4: During this phase that is more than half the length of progression, victims will begin being extremely aggressive to all forms of life. The fungus will begin spreading internally and within the brain, taking control of the brain stem. Their eyes will become bloodshot, and their blood will begin boiling at a temperature of around 150° Celsius. This is far beyond humans' usual resistance to high temperature, however the victim's body will still function due to the fungus' resistance. Keratin production will rapidly increase causing the hair and nails to grow at an extremely fast rate.

Stage 5: The infected will sever the bottom half of their bodies at the waist level, and use their sharpened nails to tear away at their flesh. Infected will begin using their arms to crawl as a means of transport. They will receive a sensory increase, having heightened levels of sight and hearing capability, and all fungus on the exterior of their bodies will spontaneously combust, charring and removing a few layers of skin. The fungus within their brain will have full control of their body functions, and will self-regulate their bodies to maintain a suitable host.
