The Spore is a seed of a creature that resembles an armored rat. When in contact with inanimate matter, it produces another one of these creatures. However, when introduced to biological matter, the spores mimic the surrounding cells, becoming nerve, muscle, and skin tissue.

History
The spore and it's parent organism came to earth in the Tuguska Incident,on July 30, 1908. In pictures taken after the cataclysmic detonation, a zombified deer was recorded. in 1938, Soviet research teams discovered a fine orange dust in the crater, wich turned out to be the spore. The organisms were studied closely, where their regenerative properties were discovered. One patient with a serious laceration was swabbed with a spore solution, and in 8 hours, his wound healed completely, and a steak injected with the same solution began to begave like a cow. The next step was to test on putrified tissue. A dead cat, named Lazarus by the research team, was injected with a spore culture, and began to move again. However, a disturbing trait was discovered: an increase in aggression in rotted organisms.

Further research revealed that Barium caused the death of Spore derived tissues. With the organisms under Soviet control, the Spore was distributed over American airspace, causing all dead organisms to rise up and attack the living. Soviet intervention indebted the American people to the Soviet union, and the USA was assimilated into the USSR. All undead creatures were decapitated, to make thir reconition easier, and make them less dangerous. However one zombie human escaped containment, thankfuly decapitated...
