MEET THEIR FOES
Denial
A faceless man who first appears as a white collar business man in an impeccably pressed suit, Denial has the ability to fog minds and create a false sense of calm. He's the one that makes you believe, "I don't have a problem — I don't need my meds!"
Phear
A shadowy creature that can turn people's perceptions against them, Phear exists to make the ordinary scary. Lurking in shadows, his multiple long arms grasp the minds of his victims by driving them hysterical with fear. He's the one that makes you feel scared of HIV-Positive people and too trapped to take action.
Apatha
A woman in a large cloak that manipulates people's will by controlling them like puppets, Apatha loves to get people’s intentions twisted. She is especially talented in wielding strings so that her victims fall into the depths of carelessness. Apatha is the one that makes you think, "I can take care of it...later."
Stigma
A monstrous manifestation of evil that feeds off of the negative feelings brought forth by the other villains, Stigma wants to take us back to the way HIV/AIDS was first perceived in the 80's. Stigma believes those diagnosed bear 'a mark of shame'.
Richard Frost
A right-wing news anchor for the Faux News channel. His conservative agenda masks a sinister plan to rid the world of the Undetectables and run the city through anger under his true identity, MALICE. Unknown to his TV viewers, Frost can control the weather, and creates arctic-like conditions that turn people’s inner emotions outward in the form of hate.
