Eclipse Virus

"I don't want to speculate, because it's too dark....knowing the things he's done....and the things this new virus can do...."

- Vitaly Tchernenko

Eclipse Virus is a bioweapon developed by Vitaly Tchernenko. The bioweapon was used by rogue Division agent Aaron Keener to create chaos in Lower Manhattan and as an attempt to recreate the Black Friday outbreak again.

History
After Keener captured Tchernenko from the Last Man Battalion, Keener forced Tchernenko to create a deadlier Green Poison using Gordon Amherst's research. After a lot of unsuccessful attempts, Tchernenko finally created a compound that can kill people upon contacting it, and can be stored at a small chemical cylinder.

Keener intended to use Eclipse as a weapon to create chaos. He believed that only chaos can make humanity thrive again. Using Eclipse, he attacked several sites in Lower Manhattan, including the New York City Hall (JTF Base of Operations in Lower Manhattan), New York Stock Exchange (JTF trading post) and Castle Clinton. Besides these attacks, Keener also manufactured a missile with Eclipse on it, as an attempt to spread the compound into the rest of the world.

In a an attempt to ensure Keener's legacy, he gave some sample of the virus to Jupiter's Cell and a large amount of it to Hornet's Cell. However, Molly "Jupiter" Henderson ordered it to be destroyed as her and her allies were trying to destroy the virus while Hornet's cell are looking for ways to improve and unleash the Eclipse virus.

The Eclipse virus was used to engage Division agents by Hornet's Cell of rogue agents, in an attempt to kill them but left unsuccessful. During a Division agent's attempt to kill Carter "Hornet" Leroux, a mass amount of the Eclipse Virus was deployed by Leroux to block the agent's path at Tidal Basin. However the agent embedded the new healing trap with a hacked warhound to withstand the Eclipse Virus with constant healing. Eventually the virus was cleared out and Leroux is killed.

After both Keener and Leroux's demise, the Eclipse Virus is seemingly all used or destroyed with its return being unlikely.
