Empty Child (Gas Mask Zombie)
Empty Child, or the gas mask zombie, was a technological plague that spread through part of London in 1941. The plague was created by Chula nanogenes when it encountered a dying human boy. In attempting to heal the boy, the nanogenes assumed that the gas mask he was wearing was part of his face and unintentionally created the “Empty Child”, a zombie with the boy’s characteristics and injuries at death. Anyone infected with the plague inherited those characteristics, namely a gas mask for a face, severe head trauma on their left side, partial collapse of the chest cavity and a gash on the back of their right hands.
