Dimitri serves as your introduction to PP. Through his eyes, you are shown the world of 'transporters.' A career that focalizes on one thing : transporting resources across military bases, there's a catch though! The transportation is done uniquely through orbit. A necessity to avoid parasitical contamination and infection.



Dimitri grew up in the wasteland, and like his peers, life was incredibly difficult. Every hour, whether dawn or dusk, risk of infection or better yet death, was incredibly high. Survival was a gamble, and the parasites weren't the only fear! Due to the constant military bombings, the majority of the world is in a near constant nuclear winter! This leads to a large majority of humans developing health complications, and Dimitri's mother was no different. Because of this, Dimitri worked various jobs in an effort to get money to pay for his mothers medical supplies. It was while during one of his odd jobs at an agriculture field that he met a transporter, he didn’t need convincing when he heard the paycheck.



Transporters, despite being lowest on the military chain, are indispensable. They're sort of like the dishwashers at a restaurant!



Transporters are hired through "Nexarus". A spatial military program open to the public.

Joining is relatively easy, surviving isn't. Transporters are required to pass a physical exam and psychological assessment to join. Then, they must learn the 'Manuel' by heart.

The 'Manuel' refers to a set of rules imposed onto transporters to guarantee efficiency and safety across bases. Some examples are : If infected, kill yourself. Never speak about your missions. No vacations, always available. Document any anomalies or out of the ordinary things. Never use your weapon unless the cargo is in danger.

If any of these rules are disobeyed, by decree of Genesis, the offending transporter is executed. But hey! The pay's really good!

They are considered cargo, and are replaceable.



Through Dimitri's eyes, you accompany him on one of his missions, but there seems to be something on the ship with him..



A vital anomaly on one of the 'merchandise' forces Dimitri to the oxygen tank chamber where he discovers an airlock malfunction. He located the blown fuse. Surrounding it was a thick black substance, an unidentifiable ooze clinging to the wires, similar to tar. Dimitri decides to reconnect the oxygen manually, but before he can, the unidentifiable goo splatters onto his neck. He realizes this to be of parasitical nature, and retreats back to the cockpit, ignoring the computers warning, terminating the auto destruct, despite the sensors confirming his suspicion. "Cancellation risks parasitical importation. Proceed?"

According to the 'Manuel' , he should have already killed himself, but he only needed to be alive for the trajectory, not for the descent onto earth. Dimitri decides to return to the oxygen tank chamber, and successfully reconnected a fresh oxygen tank to the 'merchandise.' Feverish, he notices a black shadow in his peripheral vision, and blindly shoots. After fighting with the creature, it retreats under a metal crate. Dimitri pours a flask of alcohol around the crate and lights it, probing the creature to abruptly launch at his head.

This is your first introduction to a parasite larvae! Congratulations !

The creature is revealed to be no bigger than a small rat. The gun clattered to the ground as he clawed at his face, struggling to pry the writhing creature off him. Then, he coughed violently, black sludge bubbling up from his throat. After recuperating, he maintained the trajectory to earth, not expecting to survive the descent...

So, what is a parasite larvae?



The parasite larvae are an unknown species not originating from the milky way, and reproduce asexually. (Without the necessary need of a partner.) However, they reproduce within corpses (To eat the flesh). They must enter a endosymbiosis with another organism before mature age, or they will die. When merged with a human, the larvae commonly orally force themselves into the body of the host. The infection is catalogued through stages

Stage 0: Common symptoms of the flu, loss of appetite, fevers, sore throat, runny nose, nausea, dizziness. Does not have access to the hive mind, but may hear ‘distant voices’

Stage 1: Hysteria, insanity, dilated pupils, suicide, lack of blinking, bloodshot red eyes, loss of physical pain, visual and auditory type hallucinations. Loss of consciousness. Possesses access to the hive mind.

Stage 2: Abilities of metamorphosis between host and parasite if the host survives long enough. They are incredibly more violent than stage 1’s, and constantly seek to devour. They have been known to plant larvae eggs into the deceased wombs of organisms. Possesses access to the hive mind

Stage spontaneous type transformation: Anomaly occurring during stage 0 where the host will not undergo stage 1 to its full effect, or the complete absence of it. Instead, the host will enter an endosymbiosis with the parasite and gradually fuse with it, up to this stage it is considered stage prolonged type transformation. A second anomaly will occur if the prolonged type transformation is spontaneously affected (Like sudden death.) Stage spontaneous type transformation will occur instead where the parasite will immediately fuse itself entirely with the host within a matter of seconds, killing itself in the process. It will rapidly break DNA and reconstruct it on its own, tweaking it for the survivability of its host. This process is extremely dangerous, and is often done poorly. Many mutations occur during this process. The host will keep its consciousness but will usually suffer total memory loss. These organisms do not have access to the hive mind.

Stage prolonged type transformation: Anomaly occurring during stage 0 where the host will not undergo stage 1 to its full effect, or the complete absence of it. Instead, the host will enter an endosymbiosis with the parasite and gradually fuse with it over the course of months or years until it has reached a complete fusion and is considered ‘perfect.’ Commonly the parasite will replace an organ in the host's body. The host possesses consciousness and often keeps their memories. These organisms have access to the hive mind.

The hive mind: a ‘consciousness’ shared by the mutated. The hive allows for location sharing and thought sharing. The hive mind has a ‘queen bee’ named Mother.



Yeah yeah it's difficult ! But basically there's a one in a million chance that the host becomes an anomaly, which is the compatibility between parasite and human! Endosymbiosis!

An anomaly is considered a perfect specimen, while an infected is a temporary host!

Oh and anomalies guys got rapid cellular regen... yikes

So.... spoiler. But our dear captain is infected, though he tells you he's not!*





Dimitri underwent prolonged type transformation, he merged with a 'spatialis' type larvae. These larvae are very rare! They can't survive Earth's atmosphere, but thrive in space! Though there's not much food in space...

Officially, little is known about these guys! They possess camouflage abilities, even after death! They're social chameleon type killers essentially!

Dimitri possesses shapeshifter abilities by consuming the organic material of another organism, he can become them for specific lengths of time, it all depends on the quantity he ate. However, by will he can transform into his ‘original’ human state, due to his ADN being perfectly memorized during the metamorphosis. Dimitri's eyes will always remain a soulless black, where there is no light reflection.

Dimitri has a long black tail, covered in reenforced 'tar' like

plate. The tip of his tail is sharp, and resembles a stinger

that can inject venom into its victims. This venom attacks

muscle & skin tissue like a paralytic. He can never get rid of

this pesky thing, so he wraps it around his body

and hides it under his clothes!

He often spits, coughs or vomits because of the tar substance. A side effect to his body constantly reinforcing his body. It replaces his saliva. This substance has a bitter and sweet smell to it. It has also replaced Dimitri's blood and other...liquids.

His skin is essentially just a pretty face! Underneath it is a creature made from the same material as his tail! Speaking of which.. that thing is actually pretty heavy! During his metamorphosis, his spine was also reconstructed to carry the weight. His ankles and thighs were also reconstructed to allow leaping! He can actually hang from the ceiling with his tail.. creepy.



Enough with all of that, here's some trivia.
