"Those who have been touched by the Crimson Blight"

Tanks to having part of a Predater in them. Read about that here.

It used to be it's own Magic System. Still is as a matter of fact.

But

Tears of Infection
People with this exception constantly release their own Flow as they cannot store it within themselves, as well as not being able to produce any of their own. In order to counter this, they must constantly eat flow-rich foods to stop themselves from dying of flow deprivation. Except, Cooked food doesn't have any flow in it and only the raw meats of Class A Creatures and above are worth eating for flow. So the only three choices are:

== Hemomancy== A person affected by Hemomancy is unable to separate Flow from the blood as well as a normal person can, making their Flow red in hue as opposed to the normal blue. The eight Elements behave much differently when transmuted by a Hemomancer, gaining blood-like properties for better or worse. This, of course, is just a huge reference to Blood Blockade, but I digress.
 * 1)  Potentially put your life at risk trying to kill dangerous creatures
 * 2)  Vegetarian, only able to eat bad tasting veggies
 * 3)  Eat Humans (oshiete oshiete yo)
 * Fire= Smells horrendous. Ignitable
 * Water = Normal Blood, Begins to clot and trap anything touching it
 * Ice = Red Ice; Blood cells freeze, very sharp
 * Wind = Turns into a red/purple gas.Poisonous
 * Sand = powdered, dried up scab tissue; Sticky
 * Earth = Very hard blood. like putty except it doesn't deform
 * Lava = Red Hot, Boiling Blood (literally)

Vampirism
Literally just Hemomancy+TGS copy/pasted together

FleshStepping
FleshStepping is an ancient exception stemming from the powers of a Specific Predater. Not a lot of people with this exception exist anymore. The Predater killed them all and reabsorbed its magic from them.

Fleshsteppers are non-magical shape-shifters who have no form or appearance to call their own. At birth, a FleshStepper will appear to be a mass of flesh bones and blood, especially blood with maybe an eye or two.

Whenever they see something they like, they "double" a part of it's appearance to their own. A FleshStepper will normally double until they achieve some sort of individuality. It should be kept in mind though, that the more they double, the less further doubles influence their look; eventually they won't be able to double anymore

Fleshsteppers can take virtually any form they with, but they are limited in the sense that they cannot shrink or expand, as well as staying skin-colored rather than changing color to match the object shape-shifted into.

Fleshsteppers can fuse with other FleshSteppers, combining their looks and powers. This means that a fusion could have more than one affinity and several more gate locations. Fusion is not permanent. It can be undone at any time the fusees wish. Tetsuo's Mutation + ditto + Skullgirls' Double is the best way i could describe it in a sentence

They're still human by the way

Trivia

 * I used to call Tears of Infection "Tokyo Ghoul Syndrome", which is what inspired it. In case that was a bit hard to notice.
