"Chomp and munch, chew and crunch!
There's a lot here to destroy
Inch by inch, it's a cinch
Bringing down this big ol' boy!"
― Computer virus (The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue)
"Cy-Bugs are like a virus. They don't know they're in a game. All they know is eat, kill, multiply! Without a beacon to stop them, they'll consume Sugar Rush! But do you think they'll stop there?"
"Yes!"
"WRONG! Viruses
do not stop! Once those Cy-Bugs finish off Sugar Rush, they'll invade every other game until this arcade is nothing but a smoking husk of forgotten dreams."
― Sergeant Calhoun to Fix-It Felix Jr. about Cy-Bugs. (Wreck-It Ralph)
"Because of you, Ralph, I'm now the most powerful virus in the arcade! I can take over any game I want!"
― Turbo/King Candy after fusing with a Cy-Bug (Wreck-It Ralph)

The ability to become a technological virus. Technique of Computer Virus Manipulation. Variation of Program Physiology. Opposite to Computer Anti-Virus Physiology.

Also Called[]

  • Computer Virus Mimicry
  • Digital Virus Physiology/Mimicry

Capabilities[]

Users of this ability are able to become a living computer virus. They are capable of spreading their virus and infecting a numerous amount of technology, allowing them to bend technical appliances to their will. Once the technical appliance has been hi-jacked, it is merely an extension of their control. Users are also capable of giving themselves a digital cybernetic body for physical purposes.

Despite the fact of the user becoming a virus, this power is not an evil power due to the fact that this power can be used in good ways, like destroying villain's computers, dis-configuring or recovering data.

Applications[]

  • Duplicate yourself by using other people's power to create something.
  • Duplication and self-duplication powers are included in the materialization powers.
  • Some transformation powers are included if they imply creation of new material to increase the mass.
