[RFC] Biomodification (meta)
 
#3
In general, I'd say there's no limit to the insanity that's possible..... Rule 0 is important, but at the same time anything can work if it's written correctly. Biomods should be driven by the character concept, not be the entire character concept if that makes sense. I'd hesitate to say anything is off-limits..... although that's coming from one of the guiltier parties. Superhumans are fun to write about too.....

Quirks. Well, I had thoughts on it, but the idea was just a little bit too horrific. It worked for hardware, but was a quiet nightmare when applied to people. It was a real fridge horror. And it might change a few characters in uncomfortable ways.

I was sort of assuming the Senshi strain found emergency medical uses during OGJ -era. It's stable, designed to minimalise the chance of jokers and generally give a result that's clean, quirk free and obviously human. Of course, it's an option on most dog-tags to indicate that the wearer refuses emergency biomodification. It seems perfect

It's also perfectly natural to think about the opposite sex. Handwavium itself being a memetic substance..... well, the results should be obvious. From a meta standpoint, it's also a change that can't be ignored by the affect character, while at the same time not making them stand out amongst a crowd or being obviously strange. It's a heavy change, but one that's easier than a Furmod.

Under fictional races, maybe add Nazzadi. A very small subculture, with less than 50 individuals. They've taken upon themselves to re-invent an alien culture from the ground up, something which appeals to a certain kind of individual. The arguments over what a 'Nazzadi' should be, what the tatoos mean and even whether they should follow Cthulhutech are vociferous as they are ignored by all but a few curious anthropologists. Because really, I always like the concept behind the Nazzadi.... a race specifically discovering itself and in the act of defining what a NAzzadi actually is, experimenting with new and strange a colourful combinations along the way.

Oh.... and there're bound to be Klingons of course.
