"What most humans don't recall in their persecutions is that virii were initially written to be the first artificial intelligence; in essence, a human within a computer. They never realized they suceeded so well." -Draco
This is a list of all the known virii in the Metaverse, along with a short description and class. Each is the property of their owners; don't steal them without talking to them.
Name is self-explanatory.
Class is a measure of the coding of a virus. Since a
virus is only as powerful as how well it can manipulate it's
system, classs levels are directly tied to the viruses code,
not power. Class 3/4 virii (Hex, Megabyte) virii are the equals
of early-Metaverse's class 7-8, and they are the equal of
2500's class 10-11's. Keep in mind that the power levels in
virii of close levels are often similar in power, and that each
virus is unique in code.
Mimic is whether their programming allows them to look
like a certain race as camoflage.
Known powers have been shown either in fic or the
MDM.
Side is the measure of what their programming is and
how it affects them. A virus can be one of five:
Benign: Docile, refuses to use powers for harm and unless absolutely necessary. (seen by others as failures of virus creation)
Quasi-benign: Use powers for good purposes only, fairly peaceful
Neutral: No particular adhesion to either side, uses powers when needed, but not usually agressively.
Quasi-hostile: Very agressive when angered and will use powers to their advantage when situation arises.
Hostile: Use powers whenever it pleases them. The steriotypical virus.
Residence is their current or last known residence.
Current Condition is their condition in the last fic concerning them written.
Other notes:
Pureblood refers to a virus programmed by a hacker in the intention of creating a virus; Elogin and Bios are pureblood, whereas Lean il Lupe would not be.
Pureborn means than the virus was not programmed at all, rather conceived and born like a normal sprite. Pureborn virii can gain certain abilities from their parents unusual to their own class, and may be higher or lower than their parents class.
A "Beauty" virus is one created to look a certain way. Often they are benign and created for company by more asocial hackers, like a pet.
