CONTAMINATE MUTATION
Infested is less of a genetic mutation and more of a fungal parasite with physical properties.
The fungal parasite sends out toxins in the body, taking over the muscles to control the Dragon.
If a Dragon comes into contact with one of these spores and is not cured within 24 hours, the fungal parasite takes hold and begins to reproduce in their blood streams. After which they begin to sprout fungi and corals on the Dragon's body. The goal of the fungal parasite is to spread more spores!
Other Dragons tend to avoid these dragons at all costs. Forming a party to exterminate the Infested Dragons is fairly common.

COVERAGE:
At minimum, one fungi or coral must be present.
At maximum, 50% of the body may be affected.
The Mutation does not need to be in one patch and may be scattered across the body.
The fungal growths can present as any type of fungi or coral.
This does not cause a state of decay on the dragon.
(Please keep imports PG-13. Reference import/images may be provided as a link above the personality for a more spooky import.)
