A tale oh so common along the Rim.
Research group is sent to the planet in order to study a strange piece of archeotech. They settle, they build, they thrive, and bit by bit cold hard science becomes intermingled with bits of Archeotech Esoterica, until, alas, their work is more ritual and chant than paperwork and calculus...
The pride and joy of this Research facility was the rather effective superhuman project, which had several passes:
Stage 1: Nanite-based Superhuman serum (Vanilla Factions Expanded - Ancients) Procured from ancient vaults, even with all relevant facilities installed, a full run of 5 injections and 5 cleanses ends up with a rather unhappy mortality rate.
Stage 2: Psylink Cut and dry, the subject is given a neuroformer in order to attain psylink abilities
Stage 3: Full Apex Entromorph Evolution (More Than Ashes) Subject is than implanted with Apex-class Entromorphs one by one, Starting with Morolith. Each process is allowed to run its full course and all mutations fully realized. Casualty rate is negligible given sufficient preparation.
Sage 4: Cybernetic Tune-up (Vanilla, Altered Carbon 2: Resleeved, Integrated Implants) A massive surgical undertaking, resulting in over 30 separate surgeries. The end result is a pawn able to deal with defensive attacks and forays into enemy bases solo.
Stage 5: Anomalous Enhancements (Integrated Implants, Anomalies Expected, Anomalies Expected-add on, Metalhorrors Unleashed) The epitome of anomalous research. Subjects are infused with technology only possible given enough anomalous materials harvested. Subject can now defy death on the odd chance of deadly wound, regenerate limbs, and is rendered immune to being digested by devourers
Stage ?: Void Link Only one of us could be chosen for this last stage...Celia, nephilim born amongst our kin was granted this blessing. May the Void quake beneath her wake.
