The Infected
Regular Infected
They say it started deep in the sump, where the air’s too thick to breathe and the water eats through steel. A sickness that crawled up from the dark, rotting flesh and stealing minds. Now the underhive crawls with the Infected—scavvies, scum, even gangers—driven by nothing but hunger and the plague that binds them. They shamble in the thousands, swarm through the alleys, and claw at every bolted door. Some are little more than walking corpses, others twisted into feral beasts, and a few into horrors best left unspoken. To the living, they are all the same: the plague given form, and death with a thousand faces.
Shamblers
The lowest and most numerous of the infected, Shamblers are hive-scum who have rotted into little more than meat puppets. Slow and clumsy, they stagger through the underhive in unending throngs. Though they lack speed or wit, their sheer numbers and unnatural resilience make them a constant, grinding threat.

Infected Gangers
Once Gangers of the underhive, these wretches have been claimed by the plague but not yet reduced to mindless husks. Their bodies twitch with unnatural vigor, and scraps of their old training remain, twisted into feral cunning. They fight with the weapons still clutched in rotting hands, heedless of injury, driven only by the infection’s hunger.

Lurchers
Where most of the infected stagger and crawl, the Lurcher hunts. Twisted into a beastlike parody of life, these creatures bound and scramble through the dark with unsettling speed. Their limbs are warped, stretched taut with plague-born sinew, and their movements mimic the feral packs of sump-hounds that stalk the hive depths.

Spitters
Among the infected, some bodies bloat and warp until their innards slosh with foul contagion. These wretches are known as Spitters, their jaws distending to vomit great gouts of virulent slime across the hive. The ooze burns flesh, fouls weapons, and carries the infection deeper into the ranks of the living. Grotesque and cowardly, Spitters linger behind the shambling horde, using their bile to weaken prey before the swarm closes in.

Bursters
Some victims of the plague swell with noxious gases and fester until their bodies resemble little more than walking cysts. These are the Bursters, groaning sacks of rot that stagger toward the living with dreadful purpose. Though clumsy, they charge with manic determination, hurling themselves into their prey before rupturing in a spray of infectious filth.

When the infection takes root in an Ogryn, the result is a nightmare few survive to describe. Called Hulks by the underhive, these plague-beasts are slabs of muscle and bone wrapped in rotting flesh, their brutish strength only amplified by the sickness.

Special Infected
Among the endless tide of shambling scum, darker shapes sometimes rise. The underhivers whisper of them in hushed tones things touched deeper by the plague, swollen with its gifts and cursed with its malice. These are the Special Infected: monsters that stalk the ruins like apex predators, each one twisted into a nightmare that no ganger wants to face in the dark
The Witch
Among the endless tide of shamblers, there is whispered to be one far more terrible. Known only as the Witch, she does not stumble blindly like the others but watches, waiting. Her eyes burn with a sickly light, her whispers gnaw at the mind, and the plague itself seems to bend around her.
