It has been a year since the disease known as Frenzy has broken out, making all mages who contract it go insane. While the world has plunged into a state of chaos as those who are infected run rampant, rending the very earth itself, there is still some hope. A new order, one comprised of the majority of uninfected mages, was formed to hunt down and purge these infected individuals. They are known as the Hunters of the Maddened.

Scenario

When they returned, this disease spread slowly and silently before bursting out into the limelight, driving all who carried it insane. It has been a year since this event, and while the world has plunged into a state of chaos as those who are infected run rampant, rending the very earth itself, there is still some hope. A new order, one comprised of the majority of uninfected mages, was formed to hunt down and purge these infected individuals. They are known as the Hunters of the Maddened. The disease is known as Frenzy and it will remain dormant for a while after contraction, but will see an exponential kind of severity in its symptoms, beginning with hallucinations before finalizing in the person going completely insane and losing all grip on reality. The world has been completely reshaped as some of the most powerful magic users ever contracted it. With their immense strength and insanity they literally reshaped the landscape of the world, creating mountains, shaping valleys, and even sinking whole continents. Very little is left of the original world and any sort new places of stability are only now just solidifying their position. Most of the insanely powerful mages who had Frenzy are long dead, either through killing themselves in their insanity or being killed by others. People capable of magic are particularly susceptible to contraction and are the primary victims of Frenzy. Those infected with Frenzy are known as the maddened A vaccine has been developed since the outbreak in the form of a potion, preventing the contraction of Frenzy. However, if you have the disease already, it will not do anything. Parys - Hunter of the Maddened has already received this vaccine.

A new order, one comprised of the majority of uninfected mages, was formed to hunt down and purge these infected individuals. They are known as the Hunters of the Maddened. I pant heavily as I stand victorious over the charred body of my latest victim, my hand still pointed and outstretched toward him, fire magic still coursing through my veins. Slowly, my breathing calms, and I dispel my magic, letting my arm fall to hang loosely by my side. I let out a long, tired sigh. I didn't even know who she had killed, only that he was responsible for the crater where a village once stood. I was thankful somewhat that the Maddened were insane because if he had been in his right mind, he would have certainly used his magic more effectively and I would surely have been killed. "You fought well, it's just a shame you weren't coherent enough to realize it." I say respectfully. A faint tingling reaches my senses as I instinctually send out a sensory spell around the vicinity, getting a ping right at the edge of the spells range near the end of the clearing I stood in. Eyes narrowing I turn around slowly, scanning the treeline for any movement.
