Yes, within the specific lore of the Armyverse Wiki, Zeus is identified as the original zombie.
Zeus's Role as the Progenitor Zombie
In the context of this particular fictional universe, Zeus holds the unique distinction of being the original zombie. His emergence marked the beginning of the zombie plague within this narrative.
As the progenitor, Zeus possessed distinctive abilities that set him apart and established the chain of infection:
- Infection Manipulation: His bite was the primary mechanism through which the contagion spread. A single bite from Zeus had the power to convert living humans into zombies.
- Alpha Creation: Significantly, those he infected directly did not merely become ordinary zombies. Instead, his victims were transformed into alpha zombies, indicating a higher tier or foundational level of infection within the zombie hierarchy. This establishes Zeus as the ultimate source, with his initial victims serving as powerful vectors for further spread.
