Morphine

Morphines are a species of corruption based on Argentinean memory-resident viruses that affect Microsoft DOS computers. They were discovered in 1997 and created by Ren Hoük. The virus was reported to be found in the wild from November of 1997 to December of 1998, likely before disappearing altogether.

When a Morphine enters an MS-DOS computer, it will become an executable file until executed by the user. Once this happens, it will infect COM and EXE files as they run. While it goes after these files, the virus also changes (or outright deletes) antivirus databases such as CHKLIST.MS, CHKLIST.CPS and ANTI-VIR.DAT to mask the byte changes it makes to programs.

The Morphine will also target COMMAND.COM so that it can run immediately after each time the computer boots up. However, like with the case of Hypnotizer, the virus will only show its visual effect after an infected program is run during August 10th of any year. If this is done, the screen will switch to an image of an orange inverted cross as blood drips downs from text reading "RELIGIOUS VOMIT! MORPHINE-A VIRUS VERSION 0.6.4,". As this goes on, the computer will make loud beeps without ever stopping. Any blood that reaches the screen bottom causes the text to bleed into a complete red as the letters themselves start drips down. From here, restarting or turning on the machine after completely shutting it off the machine will restart this display from the beginning. The only way to stop the Morphine attack is to wait until the date changes; to where the computer would be mostly functional until the 10th of August.

Role In Battle
Morphine is a support type character with a hefty 200 HP, but no active abilities. Morphine's special move, "Religious Vomit" is a passive, that heals teammates around morphine for a surprisingly high amount. Other than Religious Vomit, Morphine has a standard punch swing attack. It is crucial you target morphine first, as any alive Morphines will keep their teammates alive no matter how much they get hurt. Luckily, the passive does not effect the Morphine itself, but Morphines on the same team can. Watch out!
