This may have been lost in the Haruhi Question folderol...
At some point during the big squabble between the SOS-dan and the SMOFs, it is revealed that a particular biomod has been reverse-engineered by the Boskone/Reavers/what-have-you.
The primary result of the mod is "catgirling." This change itself is purely physical, no mental changes beyond the eventual adaptation to new facts of life. The Boskone have to do it a different way than was done to "Tabitha" Doe, since Captain Corcoran was able to retreive Tabby's Sleep-teacher.
Primary Boskone behavior modification methods are limited to mostly hardtech and Thionite. Sadly, these folks are usually pretty good at hardtech behavior modification in regards to sex slaves.
Again, most fen are ecstatic that the Reavers are too dim to realize just how combat-capable their "toys" are. Most fen who have seen Tom Dobbs in action are glad the boskone s/he deals with don't get back to the bosses to tell them to train the biomodded as grunts. Nothing like meeting a US Marine Corps veteran of the Second Iraq War who can't be disarmed of 10 nasty knives...
If anyone cares, I do have the specifics thought up for the procedure... just let me know...
