*Due to physical disabilities, Iggy is isolated for his own protection. He only knows his two brothers, Baine and Nansen, and their world within a brick wall, called New Eden. In spite of his overbearing brothers, Iggy sneaks out of his room and goes into the garden during the day, where he comes in contact with a strange woman. Before he can say anything to her, he loses consciousness, and awakens to her biting his face. As his only caregivers, his brothers save him from the woman, but they cannot save him from himself. Soon after the attack, Iggy is overcome with depression and craves nothing more than to end his own life. But then, a survivor arrives, and changes everything for the worst and the better.*
*Baine infects Iggy with the virus. Iggy's body becomes perfect in all ways and he is granted unique powers (umbrakinesis). Things are going well, until Iggy sees the color red and his thirst reflex awakens. It is all a matter of time before Iggy's bloodlust leads the F.U.S military to New Eden, to destroy everything that Baine has created. Especially the infected ones.*

IGNATIUS The Colors of Rage

 Iggy looked more and more like Halina as he grew healthier. He was unbelievably attractive, even another heterosexual man would've said so, and his attitude was cold and avoidant, just like hers, too. 


 While he stared, Firmin’s chest warmed with pride and he finally, for the first time, believed that making Iggy wasn’t a mistake. But now, Firmin just had to fill in the holes that remained empty from his orphan upbringing. Oh, how he hated Baine for what he had done. Stealing his child. Raising him inadequately. Throwing him into a pit of danger and destruction in which he had suffered worse than anyone else Firmin had ever known. Locking Baine away wasn’t enough to punish him. Decapitation would’ve been too easy on him, too. He should’ve let him stay dead back on that operating table.
