Bloodfly Research - “Nest Keeper”

“Nest Keeper” is a human, crazed by Bloodfly Fever. After being

stung by Bloodflies, patients will slowly begin showing signs of
Bloodfly Fever. They will eventually search for Bloodfly-infested
areas and there, they will protect Bloodfly nests. Bloodflies will
not attack “Nest Keepers”, creating symbiotic relationship.

Anatomy

Skin of “Nest Keepers” is grayish, with many bumps all over their
bodies. Said bumps are the result of Bloodfly stings. There are
Bloodfly eggs and larvae under the skin of “Nest Keepers”. Larvae
under the skin of “Nest Keeper” can be recognized by swallowing. All
hair covering “Nest Keeper’s” body will fall off. Their eyes will
lose their color. If “Nest Keeper” is killed, Bloodflies will burst
out of their body.

Brain of “Nest Keeper” is permanently affected by Bloodfly Fever and

of course, Bloodfly larvae. They are highly protective of
Bloodflies. As of many reports, “Nest Keepers” use themself as
living shields and shout at people destroying Bloodfly nests to
“hurt them instead”. They will also attack everybody they see as a
threat to Bloodfly nests.

When “Nest Keeper” dies, its body will be turned into a nest,
similarly to normal Bloodfly nests.

Cure

It is possible to cure Bloodfly Fever patients. But when they reach

“Nest Keeper” stadium, there is no way of curing them. Even though,
bigger amounts of opiates are able to lower “Nest Keeper’s”
agitation.
