Slasher Collection Drop 5 https://ironguardiancompany.etsy.com/listing/4537871945 THE CONTAMINATED The Plague of The Hallow Death is merciful. Infection is forever. Long before the world feared pandemics, there were whispers of a village that vanished overnight. No bodies were ever found. No buildings were burned. The only thing left behind was silence… and a strange symbol carved into every door. Those who investigated never returned. Centuries later, the story was forgotten. The sickness was not. Before becoming The Contaminated, he was a battlefield medic—one who dedicated his life to saving others. He worked through outbreaks, chemical disasters, and war zones where hope disappeared long before he arrived. He believed every life could be saved. Until he encountered something no medicine could cure. Deep within the cursed woods, he discovered one of The Hallow’s forgotten altars. There he found a blackened vial sealed beneath ancient stone. Believing it held the key to ending the disease consuming his patients, he broke the seal. The plague chose him. His flesh withered but never died. His lungs no longer needed air. His blood turned black, carrying a corruption older than mankind itself. Every breath became toxic. Every wound spread the curse. The Hallow did not destroy him. He perfected him. Now The Contaminated walks at the front of the Legion whenever entire communities must fall. Crops rot beneath his footsteps. Water grows foul. Animals flee before he arrives. Even the crows refuse to feed on what he leaves behind. Unlike the other Slashers, he does not hunt individuals. He hunts populations. His rifle, Outbreak, is used only when prey attempts to escape beyond the quarantine. Otherwise, he lets the corruption do the work. There is only one rule when The Contaminated appears: Do not breathe. Because by the time you realize you’ve been exposed… The infection has already won.
