Power and perks

Power

Virulent Bound

Special Ability – Virulent Bound: Charge your Bound Attack to launch forward and strike. If your Bound collides with a Survivor, they will be briefly seized and Infected with Uroboros.
From there, one of two situations will occur. The first: Wesker collides with a surface while holding a Survivor, and that Survivor becomes Injured. The second: Wesker collides with nothing and flings the Survivor forward – if they collide with a surface, they will become Injured.
Special Effect – Uroboros Infection:
When a Survivor is hit by the Virulent Bound, they are infected by the Uroboros, and Hindered when fully infected. If Wesker hits a fully Infected Survivor with a Bound Attack, they will be instantly carried.

The Mastermind Lore

Albert Wesker was a high-ranking official in the Umbrella Corporation before ambition drove him to betrayal. Believing himself the best test subject, he exposed himself to the Prototype virus. Now with superhuman strength, Wesker faked his death and went underground with a new plan: expose the world to Uroboros, a biological weapon that would eliminate the weak. Determined to be at the vanguard of evolution, he once again made himself a test subject. As his cells change, a strange black Fog seeped into the hanger and filled his vision.
