Muscle Mass and Synthetic Bodies

Immortal Cyan

Immortal Cyan

The Cyan Neko
So, I have a question regarding the potential for NH-33s to gain muscle mass (and therefore strength), in a manner like normal humans would if they were to work out extensively. Specifically, I am wondering whether or not it is possible for NH-33s to become stronger than normal via physical training, and therefore, able to carry in excess of 550 Lbs. in 1G.

So this is my question: Can NH-33s benefit from physical training in the same way that humans can (gaining muscle mass and strength)?

Thanks in Advance!
 
Hi Immortal,

Theoretically, an NH-33 can benefit from physical training. They are flesh and blood, but which means they would have to maintain the physical training or the body would return to its default parameters.
 
There are three examples of this that I know of; Shayla Mcbelle, Shiho Ishii and Toyoe Tsuguka.

Given that physical variety is a thing, I guess I always just assumed that certain space Neko were built with just a little 33A in them, and thus were designed more with infantry tasks in mind. With Tsuguka, I've always made them work out with coordination exercises, mind.
 
Yes, it is possible and while Nekovalkyrja are designed to stay in shape constantly and effortlessly, they can get extra buff by exercising. It's actually a great idea because it shows your character's badass physicality in RP.

I was actually going to point at least our two out, but got distracted. Shayla's a genetic freak so she's not a good Neko to reference, but Tsuguka is probably a good in-RP example of Neko gaining strength/size.

I know there was a male Minkan on the Eucharis who was a bodybuilding/fitness freak who also pumped himself up, but I can't quite remember his name.
