Parasitorium

A series of survival experiments forms the core of Parasitorium, where female volunteers agree to controlled infection with a lab-engineered parasite and are then observed under extreme conditions. The research takes place inside a secret biological laboratory within the N.E.R.D. complex, short for Nucleic Exchange Research and Development, a facility focused on genetic manipulation and DNA experimentation.

The parasite developed by the facility’s biologists does more than survive inside a host. It allows an infected person to take on the appearance of any other individual, while also granting enhanced physical and intellectual abilities. With the organism perfected and volunteers ready, the scientists move from development to practical testing, watching how infected hosts respond when pushed into survival scenarios.

Inspiration and Structure

The creator cites 60 Seconds! and 60 Parsecs! as direct influences on the project’s structure and tone, pointing toward a resource-driven, decision-heavy format rather than a linear narrative.
