The Plague
The Plague is the name given to an intelligent contagion infecting Pestilent Sector in the Distant Fringe.
Description / Specifications
The Plague is the name given to a fictional disease that has gained intelligence by infecting human hosts. It is believed to occupy much of the Greater Samardin Cluster. It strives to overcome the League of Asclepius, a lost settlement descended from the crew of the Mercy Benevolent, a medical ship of the Last Armada.
- It is the villain in the 3V Entertainment show Plague Sector.
Background & History
The Plague infected the crew of the Last Armada armored cruiser Assurance Destiny after they had been abandoned. It was able to utilise the GenPods installed on the ship to increase the humans available to it. Over the course of centuries it used its human populations to found outposts and bases, construct ships, and ultimately spread across the region.
It has been observed by historians that the Last Armada had no dedicated hospital ships, and nor are there records of a cruiser bearing the name Assurance Destiny. The medical needs of individual vessels were seen to by the expert medical teams that formed part of their crew. The Mercy Benevolent is a fictional vessel, invented by the scriptwriters for the 3V show Plague Sector.
