### **Survive the Blood Plague**

A mysterious and virulent blood infection has begun to sweep across the land. This plague is carried by a creeping, infectious block and a horde of corrupted creatures. There is no cure; there is only survival.

**Key Features:**

*   **The Infection Toxin:** A dangerous new potion effect that constantly drains the health of those afflicted.
*   **The Spreading Blight:** A new block, the Infected Block, will give the Infection Toxin to any player or mob that steps on it. Beware, as this block will slowly spread across the world, drawn by the presence of nearby players. The spread can be disabled via a game rule for a less aggressive experience.
*   **The Corrupted Horde:** Once-passive creatures have been twisted into hostile monsters. Prepare to face off against aggressive, infected variants of Chickens, Pigs, and Sheep.
*   **Pure Survival:** With no cure implemented, your only goal is to avoid the spreading infection and fight to survive against the corrupted horde.  (more features such as a cure and more infected mobs will be added in the future)
