Warden (Survival Devler)

The corruption is transmitted through infected creatures, plants, and water. It consumes the creature's mind, subjugating it to its will, and then corrupts it.

The infection is divided into several stages. It is irreversible, but the species created by the Distortion are immune. They cannot be infected by creatures that attack them, but they are still vulnerable to blood.

First stage.
Symptoms:
Aggressive behavior.
A tendency toward cannibalism, regardless of species. Even herbivores begin to devour their own kind.
Desire is closer and longer to the centers of Distortion.

Second stage.
Symptoms:
All the above symptoms are getting worse.
A dark purple tint appears on the color.
Bright purple pustules appear on the throat and muzzle.

The third stage.
Symptoms:
The pustules develop into painful swellings that distort and obscure almost the entire face.
The color is dominated by purple shades.
The abdomen, pustules and tumors are covered with a black, acrid mucus.
The creature's eyes turn a toxic purple.
All the above symptoms reach their peak.

The Distortion is a terrible disease devastating the world of Sonaria. It quickly evolved, affecting creatures and plants, and even spawning its own species. This is how the Distortion species emerged: Morthorax, Ximorax, Zakaiodrak, and so on (I'll add more as time permits). It spares no one, and the Guardians can do nothing about it, only aiding those who can. The Distortion primarily affected the Guardians, causing their character to become even more vicious. They're still holding on, but this can't last.

An irritable, impulsive female Vaumora. A teenager like Milo, she gets very irritated when called that. She tries to appear strong, even if she's barely suppressing a shudder. She can often hurl a few caustic remarks at anyone she doesn't like, which... means practically everyone.

Cold, silent, serious. He seems to be the only adult in the assembled group. The only representative of an unknown species who remains healthy. The other, Orverser, is one of the most powerful Infected. He knows a lot about the Distortion, but is also vulnerable to it.

A cub of ᖻᓍSᕼᓍᘜ. He's playful, talkative, gentle, and active. He thinks the Infected chasing him is a game. He gets very upset if he doesn't find anything interesting during the Journey. He's afraid and terrified of dark places and may ask someone to hold his paw. He considers Milo an older brother and often intentionally annoys him for fun.

A teenage male named Ikoran. Smart, kind, positive, and talkative. He has a hard time with silence, and when alone, he can even start to discuss rather difficult topics with himself. Yogi may call him "big brother," which he doesn't particularly appreciate.
