INSERT SPECIES NAME
Name of Species: Nano-Augmented Human
Baseline Dimension: Members of this species can exhibit any range of human baseline dimensions since they are augmented humans.
Baseline Appearance: Members of this species can exhibit any combination of eye, hair and skin color. They can also exhibit any appearance since they are augmented humans.
Culture/Origin of Species: Nano-Augmented Humans (sometimes shortened to "Nano-Augs") are still rare, but they are slowly starting to grow in numbers. Many members of this species become augmented by choice and many tend to hail from wealthy families. Some members were even born into the species due to parents wanting "perfect" children. They have no defined "homeland" because they come from anywhere that humans live.
Traits:
•Normal Appearance: Despite all of their enhancements, Nano-Augmented Humans can easily pass for normal. One of the only visible signs of nano-augmentation is that the individual has a brighter eye color than normal, but that can easily be dismissed as a trick of the light.
•Enhanced Strength: Nano-Augmented Humans have increased strength capabilities due to strength-enhancing nanites.
•Enhanced Intelligence: Because their brain has been specifically enhanced for increased intelligence, members of this species can find that learning new skills and new information is rather easy. They also gain improved memory and recall.
•Enhanced Durability: Even if their augmentations are not combat-oriented, Nano-Augmented Humans can still take a beating.
•Augmented Vision: Members of this species can see farther and in greater detail than normal humans. They can see distances of up to one kilometer without difficulty.
•Good Health: Members of this species have nanites specifically programmed to keep them in good health. As a result, members have a high resistance to diseases and illnesses and can rapidly heal from any injury that is not immediately fatal. Their recovery time from said injuries is also shorter. A minor injury can heal within minutes and a major injury can heal within days, usually a week at most.
Flaws:
•Paranoia: Nano-Augmented Humans tend towards paranoia because their numerous enhancements make them coveted recruits for roles in the military, law enforcement, national security, and other fields. Sometimes their recruitment is not voluntary; some unfortunate Nano-Augs are forced into service by threats to their family, significant other, friends, or by blackmail. They are always questioning the motives of others and trying to figure out if others are trustworthy.
•Secrecy: Nano-Augmented Humans have to keep a low profile to reduce the chances of detection by those looking to recruit them. As a result, sometimes they come across as secretive in their dealings with others. Others may feel that the Nano-Aug does not entirely trust them with even the smallest bits of personal information.
•Social Difficulties: Nano-Augs can easily engage other people in conversation to keep up appearances, but genuinely connecting on some level is another matter entirely. Paranoia and a need for secrecy can create the perfect conditions for a disconnect from other people. This manifests as difficulty in socializing with others.
