Random Game Premise/Idea

Okay, here's a random idea: The Undying.

Setting is modern day earth plus a lil' virus.

This virus is slowly but surely covering the earth, and the infection tends to spread farely evenly throughout the earth.

It is comunicable, but not very. No one knows how the virus is transferred but contact with infected people will increase one's chance of catching it.

There is no known test to detect the virus, and no one knows how it works or how it incubates. As a matter of fact, no one knows whether it is in fact a virus or whatever, but it's the closeset applicable analogy to how it spreads.

And what does the virus do? It makes you immortal, natch, impervious to any injury and it stops your aging.

Which may sound all fine and dandy, but it also stops the possiblity of reproduction. Infected babies (presumably picking it up from their mothers), can't age and stay stuck in the womens womb and never advance beyond the fetal phase.

Now, the conflict in the setting arises because of how slowly the virus spreads. It's been around for about 4 years, and only 1% of the population has been "infected". And most of them don't know, as the only test tends to involve serious physical trauma.

There have, of course, been a few accidental suicides with people believing to be infected and such.

There is a "reverse panic" spreading across the world as people attempt to get as close as possible to undying individuals, trying to get themselves infected. Everyone from young babies to exceedingly old people have stopped aging. Some people are less than pleased about becoming immortal, especially those who were waiting for a kind of afterlife...

Undying criminals are becoming a problem.
Undying are favored in the military.
Undying parents cannot give birth.
Undying can explore any hostile envirnoment without risk.

The world is changing very, very fast.

All i need now is something to get the player's invloved...
