Angry Night

The origin of the Cloven.

Malikov's involvement
During the early days of the Chimeran War a Russian scientist named Malikov, discovered an apparent 'cure' for the Crawler virus. He administered this cure to tens of thousands of Russian Soldiers. At first it seemed to work, but soon the after effects of the miracle cure became apparent. Madness, mutation, aggressive behavior and advanced telepathy. From this the Cloven were born.

The Angry Night
The Angry Night itself is the day when most of the Soldiers inoculated with Malikov's cure finally succumbed to their madness and became the advanced Hive mind Cloven. The night is speculated to have taken place mostly in Moscow. Apparently the Angry Night went on for several months, with the Cloven overrunning Moscow on an rampage of killing, kidnapping and eating people. The Cloven also kidnapped many Women, the exact reason for this is unknown however a Cloven Lore intel from Resistance Retribution claims that the Women had something to do with the Leben Geist.
