The planet contains a sentient bacteria named '' | The planet contains a sentient bacteria named ''Geobacter lucia'' (or "Lucia" for short). The bacteria operate in a purely symbiotic relationship with life upon the planet. Their hosts provide shelter for the bacteria while they protect their hosts from the radiation that bombards the planet. | ||
Lucia infects most humanoids (without copper-based blood). The bacteria gives them a natural shielding to the planet's slightly (but still harmful) levels of radiation. But without treatment, they also get strong influenza like symptoms as their immune systems tries to fight the bacteria. Additionally, in people with psionic abilities (such as [[Betazoids]]) it has hallucinogenic effects and causes delirium{{SimRef | SIMLINK=https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-amity/c/WBMHcpwBUXo/m/8JqrTz4PDwAJ | SIMTITLE=Backing the Bacteria | CHARACTERS=Lieutenant [[Ikaia Wong]] | SHIP=[[Amity Outpost]] | STARDATE=239908.25 }}. | |||
[[Ikaia Wong]] has developed an innoculation for the bacteria. It makes the host's bodies much more hospitable to the bacteria, and accounts the body's immune system fighting it.
