I would like to run an idea of mine by you guys for a while before I truly get started on it. Lowe never replied so I decided to ask every one instead.
Spoiler for VUDs:
Viral-type Unity Device - Partial Notes
A vast corruption of the ideology of a Unison Device. Unlike most unison devices, viral devices do not possess their own wills, only possessing that of their creator. They have limited sentience and a form which normally looks like a glowing spark. Like normal unison devices, these devices can “unite” with users to provide Mana control in great volume and speed but without the mage even being aware of it. One other function of this device is that it accesses memories of the infected person and "records" them while the person is sleeping. A person might experience a dream consisting of those memories when they're being accessed
However, that is just the infection stage. At a certain time, the device will forcefully cause loss of consciousness to the infected and “take over” the user and operate autonomously based on the will of the creator. When the viral device is successful in "taking over" the infected, an effect, similar to that of a user loosing control of a Unison device will occur. However, instead of taking on the appearance of the device like normal Unity-type devices, the infected will be mutated via transformation magics into a more terrifying form based on certain conditions.
All those that are infected have chances to fight off the "taking over". This is done by combating the VUD within Internal Space. While this battle for control is going on, the VUD has control of the body and access to whatever abilities/ equipment the infected has. Usually, only those that have extraordinary wills or power can suppress the VUD taking over attempts.
Its a fairly crazy idea but is it viable or should I shut down my delusions of grandeur?
