The Progressed – Dragonblight Stricken Students

Students that have become unintentionally stricken with Dragonblight during classes with Professor Frederik Vahlen. Rather than attempt to cure them (and since there is no known cure), the professor has instead confined the students to a secret chamber beneath the University. There he has studied them, attempting to alter the strain of the plague to unlock its psionic potential, without harming the hosts. It is in this hope, that he could potentially unlock the latent psionic powers that exist in all humans, and the memories of their past lives.

The University of Ardris has undergone a spate of strange disappearances in recent weeks, with a total of six students going missing in six weeks. Whilst the Proctors desperately search for them, there are no apparent threads tying them all together. In truth, they are all students of Professor Vahlen, or members of House Aurveil, who have come into regular contact with him. Having contracted Dragonblight inadvertently from his altered strain, the Professor is forced to clandestinely abduct them before their symptoms come to light.

Each of them now lies in the depths of the vaults beneath Noxas Block, many beginning to forget their life as students, or falling into a stupor as they still believe themselves to be in class. With their minds so quickly eroding, they are growing more hostile, with the most progressed students now attacking any potential foes on sight, with strength to tear their limbs from their sockets. Due to the nature of Dragonblight, they do not harm each other, and those who are less progressed may be outwitted before they are forced into a fight.
