My group's starting up a homebrewed d20 future game, and I'm playing as an android. Since that makes me immune to disease, my DM and I have decided to simply put in viruses that I can catch. We have a couple, but need more, so if you would be so kind as to post some ideas... :smalltongue:
Here's what we've got:
The Taco Virus (t.cra.bat): Causes recipient android to head to nearest taco-vending area and spend every available credit on them.
Forced HAL emulator (HAL.exe): Android, when next in control of a craft, commandeers it, and begins to subtly put the crew into mortal peril.
Ye Olde Wyrme (2bornot2b.spc): Android speaks in Shakespearean. When not actively engaged in conversation, will begin reciting the entire works.
Reflector (mirror.act): All actions are mirror of intended ones (i.e., move left leg, due to virus, right leg moves.)
And here we get stumped. Some, as you can see, are really... well, idiotic. He's putting them in where they'll actually be threatening. Others are quite serious, regardless of where I might catch them.
What we need in terms of format is a full name, followed by a filename (You can make up extensions, we just need something to refer to it to, to keep the other party members confused as to what's going on), then finally, the function of the virus.
