SciFi Technology of the Future

The threat of bioengineered products stems from their ability to be nearly indistinguishable from human beings. while a cyborg or AI can easily be spotted under the simplest of scrutiny clones and high grade biomechs cannot and require the use of specialists with experience in this field. So the concept of protecting humans from their own creation falls into the jurisdiction of the leading company in the field of genetics and biomechanics. AGIS has proven the need for legitimate clone regulation and expressed the dangers in allowing unregulated clones to go unseen. Lower grade clones are easier to identify and hold little threat since they have no augmentations beyond standard and sometimes substandard human attributes. However high grade clones are much harder to spot even under the heaviest genetic scrutiny and these are the type of clones that pose a threat to the citizens of insilico.

Clone grades range from A-E

A - is enhanced augmentations, eye tracking with muscle coordination, enhanced reflexes, laced bones, enhanced adrenalin gland, heightened hearing, voice modulation, fiber and knitted muscles, epidermal reinforcements, shock absorption in the legs etc. If a clone of this grade chooses to not be augmented they are virtuall indestinguishable from human beings even under genetic testing.

B - is a standard clone with only moderate amount of augmentations. However they are still capable of genius level of thought but lack memory or cognitive heuristic enhancements.

C - Is substandard clone capable of only designed tasks and linear thinking patterns. Also with limited capacity to mature and grow and are usually easily identified through behavioral analysis. This models simplistic design is meant for inexpensive tasks and specialized fields of study. Capable of mimicking emotion but unable to truly feel and experience them.

D - is low grade with no true sense of individuality they have rubber or latex like skin and are incredibly cheap, constructed quickly and expendable they have no higher mental functions then than simple tasks. they are often used off world or in hazardous environments.

E -  are only sacks of genetic pool and experimentation, E grade clones serve as biochemical computer systems for storing and processing memories or for growing replacements organs or biomechanical augmentations.

clones range in price from several hundred credits to multi million dollar ones, a starter player for instance would not be able to begin backed by millions of credits and expect it to be reasonable. The purpose of this regulation is to encourage players who want to be clones to do so within the boundaries of a reasonable guideline and to discourage abuse and godmodding that is easily done using clones as a loop hole.

Players who are playing illegal clones who choose to remain in the city do so at their own risk. and it is the job of the AGIS department of genetic regulation to investigate and gather enough evidence to warrant termination of that clone model.

Certain failsafes will be implemented on the highest grade of clones such as kill switches to terminate rogue clones are forcing them to obtain special chemicals to keep their body from going into a state of shock and dying. Being an augmented clone or a biological automaton of this grade comes at a price.

lower grade clones do not have to worry about such things but suffer other restrictions such as their body rejecting cybeware and being easily identified as a clone under general genetic analysis.

The mental and physical aptitude range from a-e and follow the same lines as clone grades and is used in AGIS genetic rating systems. We encourage players who want to play clones to allow us to help you IC/OOCly. Any questions please contact me or a GM.

Advanced Genetics Institute of Science Corporate Statement

Modern biotechnology could not exist without nano technology which aids in the assistance of genetic augmentations. On rare occasions there are complications in such proceedures such as an autoimmune diseases in which the body interprets the nanites as a virus and rushes to defend itself creating complications in the subjects immune response system. In such cases the patient is injected with a biomolecular solution (BioLine™ EE3) tailored to shut down the nanites activities and flush them from the system.

Despite rare complications, biomechanics remains the safest way to augment the body. Growing replacement organs, altering aesthetic appearance, enhancing natural strengths, reinforcing bone and muscle density which can be grown from the clients own cells.

Unlike cybernetics AGIS augmentations have fewer rejection rates and are less intrusive on the human body. Most biomechics unless obiously augmenting the human body remain unseen. Infact most modern day medical scans cannot even detect biomechanics without use of a more in depth look.

The main draw back of Biomechanics however remains its price tag. Throughout Insilico, to the modern citizen this technology remains unaffordable unless financed by a corporation. AGIS offers extended contract discounts to mega corps and is capable of offering low grade clones within six weeks.

Manipulating memory engrams to imprint life experiances into androids and clones offer a unique solution to early failures in this field. Modern Biomechanical androids also known as bioroids and high grade clones have shown an increase performance rate of over 47% when imprinted using this method.
