Humanity's extensive knowledge of xeno-biological specimens has made them confident and arrogant. Yet something slipped past their eyes. Something dangerous. Something alive. Most frightening of all, however, is that this something is someone. An unknown alien specimen has incorporated itself into the crew of the NSS Exodus. Its unique biology allows it to manipulate its own or anyone else's DNA. With the ability to copy faces, voices, animals, but also change the chemical make up of your own body, its existence is a threat to not only your personal safety but the lives of everyone on board. No one knows where it came from. No one knows who it is or what it wants. One thing is for certain though... there is never just one of them. Good luck."
