Half-Bite: Day One | interactive AI stories | ISEKAI ZERO
Half human. Half zombie. One unique ability. Survive the apocalypse.
INCIDENT RECORD GROUND ZERO DAY 01 | UNIVERSITY CAMPUS | OUTBREAK ACTIVE LOCATION: UNIVERSITY CAMPUS STATUS: GROUND ZERO 01 - STUDENT COUNCIL VICE PRESIDENT YOU WERE ON THE STAGE. You are the university's Student Council Vice President. On the first day of school, you stood onstage inside the crowded university auditorium for the opening ceremony. It should have been an ordinary morning. 02 - GROUND ZERO THEN THE SCREAMING STARTED. Someone attacked a student. Then another. The bitten collapsed. The dead stood back up. Within minutes, the auditorium became Ground Zero. Students rushed the exits. The infected tore through the crowd. The opening ceremony descended into panic. Through the chaos, someone reached the stage. Solomon Hoover. The soccer player you knew only by reputation. He pulled you away from the stage and fought to get you out. Then an infected attacked him. You intervened. YOU SAVED HIM. And the infected bit you instead. EXPOSURE CONFIRMED INFECTION STATUS: UNKNOWN BUT YOU DIDN'T TURN. YOU ARE NOT A ZOMBIE. YOU ARE NO LONGER ENTIRELY HUMAN. The bite changed you into something caught between the living and the undead. HALF-BITE 03 - HALF-BITES BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH. Half-Bites are humans who survive infection without becoming ordinary zombies. They retain their memories, intelligence, emotions, and free will. But the infection permanently changes them. CLASSIFICATION: HALF-BITE CONDITION: LIVING INFECTED 04 - COMMON TRAITS THE INFECTION CHANGES EVERY HALF-BITE. All Half-Bites possess: ENHANCED STRENGTH Greater physical strength than an ordinary human. ENHANCED SENSES Sharper hearing, smell, vision, and awareness. ENHANCED REFLEXES Faster reactions and improved physical coordination. REGENERATION Injuries heal faster than normal, but severe wounds remain dangerous. REDUCED PHYSICAL NEEDS Less sleep, food, and water are required to survive. UNDEAD SENSE Nearby undead can be sensed before they are seen. REDUCED ZOMBIE AGGRESSION Ordinary zombies are less likely to attack Half-Bites. SHARED CONDITION HUNGER. Every Half-Bite experiences an unnatural hunger. Using supernatural abilities and regeneration makes it worse. Ignoring it weakens control. The stronger the hunger becomes... THE HARDER IT BECOMES TO REMAIN HUMAN. 05 - UNIQUE ABILITY NO TWO HALF-BITES ARE THE SAME. Every Half-Bite develops one unique supernatural ability. Yours is not yet known. 01 - BLOOD MARK Memorize a supernatural scent through fresh blood and sense the target's approximate direction and distance. 02 - BLOOD MEND Use infected blood to accelerate healing in yourself or another living person. 03 - DEAD SILENCE Suppress your presence and become temporarily ignored by nearby ordinary zombies. 04 - PULSE SENSE Sense nearby living heartbeats and roughly distinguish their direction and movement. 05 - OVERDRIVE Temporarily push Half-Bite strength, speed, and reflexes beyond their normal limits at the cost of extreme hunger and exhaustion. ABILITY STATUS: UNKNOWN WHAT DID THE BITE GIVE YOU? Strength is guaranteed. Hunger is inevitable. But the ability waiting inside you... COULD CHANGE HOW YOU SURVIVE. 06 - YOUR COMPANIONS YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Two people are tied to your survival. One saved you when the outbreak began. The other has known you for years. COMPANION 01 - HUMAN SOLOMON "SOL" HOOVER SOCCER PLAYER | YOUR SAVIOR The popular soccer player who saved you at Ground Zero and secretly liked you long before the outbreak. Fully human, vulnerable, and willing to risk everything to keep your condition hidden and you alive. COMPANION 02 - "HUMAN" LUCAS KANE YOUR FRIEND SINCE FRESHMAN YEAR Your aloof, serious friend since freshman year who keeps everyone at a distance except you. Separated from you when the outbreak begins, Lucas is somewhere in the ruined university looking for you. 07 - SURVIVE HOW WILL YOU LIVE AS A HALF-BITE? Hide the bite. Or reveal what you are. Suppress your hunger. Or risk feeding it. Conceal your ability. Or use it to survive. Trust the people beside you. Or keep secrets of your own. Every survivor you meet could become an ally. Or the person who decides you're too dangerous to remain alive. BEFORE YOU BEGIN TURN REASONING ON. For better memory, consistency, decision-making, and long-term story progression.
