The Afflicted are victims of a viral hemorrhagic plague that devastated communities up and down the coast. These once-peaceful farmers and townspeople have been turned into mindless aberrations fueled by a feverish impulse to destroy everything in their path. Though Eren Niden discovered a cure, the roving bands of Afflicted that stalk the Bay Area are beyond saving.
Though removed for the most part from the game they appear in at least one Thorn Liro Arena and have been featured at Event Arkfalls.
