Distortism
Transmitted through fluid transmission.
This disease causes the infected’s shifting ability to become amplified but largely uncontrolled. In peaks of tension and unconsciousness, the body will begin to shift and mutate into a defense and monstrous form. With excess organs and protrusions. They are put into a feral mental state and often roam absentmindedly lashing out at any perceived threats. Some have managed to achieve consistent lucidity when in this state however and will often either take the chance to calm down or simply wander and partake in hobbies in this state.
