Weegee Virus

The Weegee Virus is the virus that any Non-Weegee gets when Weegee or a Weegee Clone stares at them long enough. There are multiple stages to the Weegee Virus, which correspond with how much radiation is in the being (more = faster).

Stages

Stage 1 - Infection

The virus spreads throughout the being's body, transmitting its information to the cells of the being. At this point, many cells fight off the virus, but many are infected.

Stage 2 - Invasion

The infected cells spread more virus into other cells, infecting them, and this process repeats until the user is officially a Weegee-type creature

Stage 3 - Mind Control

The user's brain is then attacked and the virus changes neuron signals in order to mind wipe and mind-control the being into obeying Weegee.

Stage 4 - Shapeshifting

The victim then shape shifts into a Weegee Clone or Fakegee after the neuron signals change.

Mutations/Problems

Some mutations and problems exist, which can cause semi-infection or immunity, or even worse. Also, sometimes the third stage fails and the stage 4 can't be completed, creating a Fakegee. Examples of this include Sqeegee and Greenieegee. Sometimes, the mind wipe fails or can be reversed. One Weegee Clone actually committed suicide when he accidentally regained his memories.
