SUMMARY
The latest in bio-medical breakthroughs, Hanwha Group has begun deep research and development in the field of Gene Therapy. Having bought out all and reclaimed the assets of the now defunct TetraCorp, has allowed Hanwha Group to enter a new frontier of human modification. Gene labs have begun cropping up around the world, selling various bio-modifications to the consumer market ranging from utility, survival and combat based 'human augmentation'. While seeming like a clear alternative to cybernetics, these bio-mods come at a exponential price increase, thus reducing the market to well known corpos, celebrities and mercenaries.
| Bio-modification | Description | Location/Type |
| Carbide Ceramic Ossification | Extensive gene therapy that changes the make up of bone density and strength, increasing the amount of collagen and calcium available in the human body. The added durability makes the naturally occurring bones in ones body to be as tough as steel, or equivalent to tier 3 cybernetic skeletal replacements. This is often required as a baseline for other various bio-modifications. [1,000,000 Cr+] | musculoskeletal system |
| Occipital Capillary Reversal | A modification that increases the performance of blood flow beneath beneath the subjects rods and cones beneath the retina. Increased efficiency in visual perception, increased visual acuity, and adaptive retinas that allow the user to see in low light conditions without the need of external devices. [1,200,000 Cr+] | Visual system |
| Superconducting Fibrification of Neural Dendrites | Highly experimental genetic procedure that speeds up the process of neurons moving between dendrites, in addition to shortening the distance needed for signals to contact the central nervous system. Allows the user to act with a marked increase in reaction speed and decision making, providing a equivalent of a tier 2 response modulator system. [5,000,000 Cr+] | Central Nervous System |
| Sinew Coils | A similar process to ossification, reinforces the ligaments and tendons of the subject with enhanced elastic tissue similar in durability to steel. Provides the user with incredible contraction and extension force, allowing superhuman like explosive movements. [900,000 Cr+] | musculoskeletal system |
| Adrenal Shunt | A process that enhances the adrenal gland of the subject, increasing it's size along with increasing performance of neurotransmitters. Marked increase output of naturally occurring Epinephrine or Adrenaline, with the addition of shortening the time required for the body to output it's maximum capacity, along with increased efficiency of said hormones. [900,000 Cr+] | Adrenal gland |
| Expedited Coagulation | The least invasive of the options available, the procedure increases the size of blood vessels and improves flow through out the body. In addition, increases the performance of glycoprotein Ia/IIa surface receptors, allowing the system to more readily detect injuries almost instantly. The procedure includes a increased size in Platelets, and plasma which allows the user a very aggressive form of blood coagulation. [1,085,000 Cr+] | Circulatory system |
| Permanent Equilibrium | Re-shaping of the utricle and saccule in the vestibular system along with re-pathing the neural signal to the vestibular ganglion, removing the subjects ability to become dizzy or suffer from motion sickness. Allows the user to always maintain perfect equilibrium at all times in any environment and any position. [945,000 Cr+] | Vestibular system |
| Muscular Enhancement | Improves the protein complex that forms the muscle tissue along the subjects body, showing a marked improvement in density and size. This modification also reduces lactase recovery time exponentially, allowing the user to recover from high strain activities rapidly. [1,580,000 Cr+] | Deep muscle tissue |
| Body Sculpting | Comprises of primarily cosmetic and utility based bio-modifications, allows the subject to achieve a desired height, hair color, eye color, breast size, hip size, feet size, etc. These modifications can include webbed fingers, brilles eye lids, added double joints to the hands and feet.
