Question on Genetic enhancements

Vesper

Inactive Member
I was asking Wes about this but was advised to post the questions here.

What kinds of genetic enhancements are available? In the area of senses and the like how do they compare with the kind of senses Nekos (like the NH-29) start out with? I ask this because I would like something between a Neko and human for the character I am working on (a Yamataian) as a alternative to the 'stab out your eye' approach of going to the default human-standard senses of the Yamataian from a Neko (which the character started out life as).
 
thank you for linking that Zakalwe. Do you know if those are all available to civilians (ex military) or only to active duty persons?
 
They should be available to all, however this comes from the very oldest version of SA.

Only Wes remains from that time.
 
Hmm....I'm no expert but these look seriously out of date (what with magic dispersal enhanements XD). That said, it might be a good idea to go back and revamp the stuff on gene-therapy upgrades. Makes sense to have it after all.
 
As someone who's wanting genetic modification (or at least physical augmentation) to be beyond simplistic/borderline a natural process for a species, I was hoping that this would link me to current genetic enhancement companies/tech floating around. Psychopomp is a new one and I know there's a few methods floating around in Yamatai, but would there be any that are "traditional" and part of other nations?
 
Right now we have a gap in Yamataian genetics companies - I don't really have anything as far as wikified articles at the moment, although the companies theoretically exist.
 
Saiga Psychogenetics was created to make weaponized behavioral modifications and pathogens, but it just ended up producing mechas, guns, and starships. If anyone would like to make SPLabs genetic stuff, they're welcome to do it, but it's really hard to actually make stuff like that meaningful for RP without a plot that needs a plot device.

I'm copying the text and single image that are on that site here for posterity. The site was last updated in 2000, so the information is mostly of historical intrest.

Welcome to PNUgen Corporation's Pagoda No Uesu genetic research labs, the main complex in Uesureya.
What does PNUgen do?Where is PNUgen located?
PNUgen is a corporation which specializes in genetic modification. We help people become the person they always wanted to be, or have the soldiers they always wanted to have in their army. We can change a body, or even give a new one. Here, you can:
Buy a soldier or servant
Purchase a new body
Genetically modify an organism
Construct a virus or antidote
Surgically implant devices or organs
If you need or want these services, then post a request in the PNUgen services forum.
We are located in the town of Pagoda No Uesu, a small town built years ago for the Emperor, in a mostly underground facility.
Pagoda no Uesu is situated at the fringe of the forests of Melanchol. The area of Pagoda no Uesu, is a, for the most part, non-magical place, with advanced technologies.
Our extensive labs are heavily guarded by powerful mechanized infantry robots, among other "things" we have created. Here we experiment on living things' genes to create better products for our consumers.The labs stretch deep, over a hundred floors, and hold many secrets.
How can I get involved?Joining?
The Empire of Uesureya has gone a little away from its tight control policy, and now you may be able to purchase stock in PNUgen, thus giving you a vote in the company's future activities.
If you're more interested in science, then join as a part of our R&D team, or if you like spying, and military activities, join the PNUgen intel section.
But, you don't have to join to get involved!
PNUgen has public opinion polls you can answer right here.
PNUgen is currently recruiting! If you have an interest in science, security, or tired of not having your own office with a minifridge, futon, high speed computer, microwave, as well as pay only limited by your performance, then drop us a line in our managment forum.
We'd love to have more inventive minds working for us, and you'll love the benefits. So stop by sometime at our lab.

The weapons' lounge is a quality, comfortable place where the PNUgen weapons can hang out while either between testing, or waiting for sale.

The lounge is actually floors 17 and 18, and includes the quarters for all the weapons, a gym, a pool, a spa, a cafeteria, and a library, among other things. There is an abundance of couches and comfy furniture about.

The Floors List
Ever wondered what exactly is on each floor?
We're working on better cescriptions, and the lab is rather large.

of the links, only the "Ayenee Rules and Information Homepage" still works if you click through a redirect.


Edit:
I found the old forums at https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/grandstararmy/

There is a lot of stuff there that I assume Wes has backed up.

I'm not going through a binge to find old lore /lies

SEIG UESUREYA. But really some of this stuff should be handed down in history since it played a role in what the YSE is today as well as the setting as a whole.
 
Friendly reminder BIG BOY U is still out there with a fleet. And all those neko that left with him he could experiment and improve upon. And also he made the mishu and who knows what else so dont assume it looks like a cute catgirl~

He might come back someday with this war occupying yamatai and take over the core with that fleet and whatever trife experiments hes had all this time to create and improve upon~

Given he invented the neko in the first place, it's likely that he's invented a newer model by now. But he didn't make the Mishhu.
 
I thought he did. Aight, good to know then~

But now introducing the NekU.

Its like the neko everyone love. But terrifying and a cognitive hazard to behold.

Coming to a kikyo sector "Near U!"
