With origin traits being a thing in the Witch Queen I came with an idea for a SIVA weapon foundry trait and perks.
Story:
Gredis the Gifted, the new “Kell” of House Salvation has united with House Dusk remnants after finding SIVA onboard the Exodus Black on Nessus and repaired the replication chamber under the Darkness’ “guidance”. The Plaguelands have once again started to produce SIVA, and House Dusk is sending SIVA to Earth for replication and Europa to the Salvation Splicers. Join Shiro-4 in sabotaging the SIVA Alliance’s plans in spreading the corruption and put a stop to the plague once and for all.
Activities:
Sabotage: Stop the Splicer alliance’s plans in using SIVA.
Earth: Stop the Splicers from replicating SIVA in the missile bunker
Nessus: Stop the Fallen from shipping SIVA off-world
Europa: Stop House Salvation’s Splicers from augmenting Vex with SIVA in the Deep Stone Crypt laboratories.
Quarantine: Infiltrate Riis “Perfected” on Europa (or the Rebuilt Replication Complex in the Plaguelands) and destroy various SIVA replicators and the Splicer Priests protecting them every week. (Gredis Perfected and Replication Chamber on last week)
Traits and perks:
SIVA Enhancements (foundry trait): Precision kills generate SIVA nanites, dealing damage (a weaker version of Corruption Spreads on Outbreak Perfected)
Parasitism (Became a trait outside of Outbreak like Firefly did): Nanites attached to enemies weaken them, dealing more damage.
Virus Protocol: Aiming down sights with this weapon and getting a precision kill creates a SIVA micro swarm that damages and weakens enemies inside.
Weapons: (all will have Outbreak Perfected aesthetic)
Outbreak Prototype: 450 RPM SIVA(Kinetic slot Element) Auto Rifle (Perfected but as an auto rifle)
Outbreak Precision: 180 RPM SIVA Scout Rifle (OP/Omolon Hybrid scout)
Outbreak Suppressed: Precision SIVA Fusion Rifle (OP/Vanguard Hybrid Fusion)
Outbreak Hunted: 90 RPM SIVA Sniper Rifle (OP/Hakkê Sniper Hybrid)
Exotics:
(~PHOENIX SUBROUTINE~) SIVA seasonal Heavy Grenade Launcher
Exotic Trait: (~QUARANTINE PERFECTED): This weapon fires grenades that generate SIVA nanites upon explosion.
Trait: Chain Reaction(~MODIFIED): kills with this weapon form SIVA mite swarm clouds that weaken nearby enemies.
Catalyst: Chain Reaction (~PERFECTED): Increased velocity. Kills with this weapon generate additional nanites
(~SALVATION REPLICATE) SIVA Trace Rifle
Exotic Trait: The Spreading Disease: Kills with this weapon generate SIVA nanite swarms that aggressively track onto enemies.
Trait: Contamination Field: Enemies that die from nanites generate dramatically more nanites.
Catalyst: Parasitic Pyrotechnics: reduced ammo consumption when holding down the trigger. Nanite kills create SIVA explosions and leave behind a mite cloud that damages and weakens nearby enemies.
Raid: Wrath of the Machine (with all weapons)
Outbreak Perfected:
Now has the SIVA Element.
Weapon drops at random. After defeating Aksis.
Catalyst drops after activating all monitors and opening the chest under Aksis.
Catalyst rework: Increased handling and nanite damage. final blows generate nanites(4), whereas precision kills (7->12) and rapid hits (3->7) generate even more nanites
What do you think?

We destroyed the SIVA factory and killed the Kell of the Devil Splicers who had control over SIVA in D1. It was rendered inert after that, no more activity. Its dead, except for Outbreak Perfected which is the only thing that can create SIVA and it's in our hands. So no, SIVA isn't coming back.
