Bio-Augmentation	comment	The biological counterpart to Cyborging: instead of altering humans to add machine parts, the geeks in the lab-coats change the flesh, blood and DNA. Genetic engineering and stem cell research opens new avenues in the way science. For Science Fiction writers, this can be extrapolated into a way to create modified humans to suit any environment. You could think of them as artificially created Mutants, but "artificially created" is the key to the definition. They're created on purpose, not by freak accident like being bombarded with gamma radiation or other exposure to Green Rocks. On the mild end, this can entail things that, if current medical science keeps trending the way it does in Real Life, may not sound all that fantastic in a few decades: limb grafts, biological prosthetics and less visible gene mod enhancements that make people smarter, stronger and better at stuff. Further down the fantastic scale you start to get genetic superpowers, quick and easy drastic cosmetic changes from plastic surgery on up (want green skin and spots? No problem!), extra limbs and stuff that makes humans look a lot more like aliens than most Human Aliens. Can be combined with Cyborging for even more body mod fun. Certain types of Functional Magic may accomplish the same thing but many or most of them are better listed under Mix-and-Match Critters or Hybrid Monster, and of those remaining, should be looked at with Clarke's Third Law in mind. Is a newer trope than cyborging because Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke (and shares some but not all examples with it). Also see Organic Technology, LEGO Genetics, Magic Genetics, Superpowerful Genetics, Mix-and-Match Critters, Artistic License â€“ Biology, Designer Babies, Bio Punk, and its Super-Trope, Transhuman. Can overlap with the Stock Superpower of Biomanipulation.

He was part of a highly unstable project by Nazi Germany to create a Super-Soldier race of Nazis. Because of the danger this would theoretically pose to human lives, they used prisoners in the concentration camps. They infused demonic steroids within his body, which result augmented his muscular strength and turned his bones into a kind of living metal. Naturally, after discovering his new abilities, he killed the people who slaughtered his family and then escaped.

Power Rangers S.P.D.: The B-Squad team have various abilities sourced from their parents all working in an SPD Genetics Lab twenty years prior. Power Rangers Operation Overdrive just cut straight to the point in episode 1, with the pre-Rangers standing in a machine in a billionaire's high-tech basement-lab and voluntarily having the genetic codes scrambled! Power Rangers Jungle Fury was done much more subtly, with the team's tech-supplier/mentor mentioning just before their first outing that their Transformation Trinkets tap into mystical kung-fu powers the team already have, and then enhance it with some low-level upgrades on a cellular level so they'll instinctively know how their equipment works. A non-Disney example: Power Rangers Beast Morphers also uses cellular splicing to give their Rangers animal-based superpowers.

Bio-Augmentation / int_46aac2a3	comment	Elden Ring has a few fantasy variants. To make up for being the smallest and weakest of the surviving demigods, Godrick the Grafted gets his men to hunt down and chop up strong warriors so he can graft their body parts to himself and increase his power. By the time he's fought, he's a horrifying amalgamation of stolen limbs carelessly slapped and wrapped together, only barely remaining humanoid — and he's still considered the weakest demigod. In the second phase of his boss fight, he ups the ante by chopping off his left hand and replacing it with a dragon head, gaining him a biological Arm Cannon. The Grafted Scions are (his?) children who Godrick's done the same thing to, only they haven't remained humanoid. With all their extra limbs they look kind of like spiders now. Practitioners of Dragon Communion hunt down dragons in order to eat their hearts to try and become dragons themselves. This gives them the ability to shapeshift parts of their body into a dragon's to do things like breathe fire and crush their enemies under a gigantic claw. However, their mutations inevitably collapse, turning them into wingless Magma Wyrms with only a faint resemblance to the dragons they emulate.

Bio-Augmentation / int_4ce5263e	comment	In the XCOM: Enemy Unknown expansion pack Enemy Within, you have the option to upgrade your troops with gene mods to increase their combat potential. The modifications include, among others, increased muscle density, which allows them to jump to rooftops, a secondary heart, which prevents them from dying instantly to otherwise fatal hits, and mimetic skin, which lets them blend with the environment. The more grotesque side of the trope is seen in the EXALT Elite Operatives; it's implied that their augmentations were completely unrestrained, unlike XCOM's, and are proportionally more powerful — however, they're inhumanly pale and you can visibly see that something's very wrong with them. Their gene-mods in the game data reflect this; XCOM gene mods may be powerful, but EXALT gene mods are arguably moreso. XCOM's gene mods are completely "clean" by comparison.

However, the Harmony affinity takes genetic modding into transhuman territory, incorporating alien DNA into their own and allowing them to empathize better with alien lifeforms and breathe otherwise deadly Miasma. High-tier Harmony foot-soldiers are basically human-alien hybrids. The first expansion adds hybrid affinities, unit upgrades and unique units that mix traits from two affinities. The hybrids for Purity and Harmony really emphasize these aspects, using lessons learned from the alien organisms to "improve" humanity. Unlike Purity who wants to keep humans "as they are" (i.e., not using extensive gene manipulation or cybernetics), Harmony-Purity wants to make humans "as they could be": stronger, smarter, faster, to become like gods. Their soldier units look so much like gilded statues with guns that you'd have to be told that they're human.

The list of enhancements to Spartan-IIIs is even longer, especially Gamma Company after their instructor, a Spartan-II, got tired of watching his students from previous companies get slaughtered in suicide missions and decided to add a few illegal enhancements to make them highly resistant to pain. The Spartan-IVs have somewhat less extensive augmentations, due to being modified as adults, but they can still do things like breathe methane for an hour. The Forerunners had this as standard for everyone, with them receiving new mutations as they advanced in age and rank. The best mutations went to the Prometheans, the most elite of the Forerunner Warrior-Servants. Notably, these mutations would usually take place over a number of years, but during wartime Warrior-Servants could undergo much quicker but also riskier "brevet" mutations.

Enhancing existing abilities is legal; adding new ones is illegal. Alliance soldiers routinely undergo genetic enhancement upon entering the military, and almost all children are screened before or just after birth and provided treatments to fix genetic defects. In addition, there now exist "designer babies", children of the wealthy that were engineered from the ground up to be better than normal humans. In some places they're the equal of any other human, in others they're regarded as little more than property. Mass Effect 2 squadmate Miranda Lawson is one of these "designer babies", and shows why it's not such a good idea. You can also pick up a "krogan retrovirus" upgrade, which alters the genetic code in squadmate Grunt to increase his health.

In one case, cunning terrorists buy samples of this Prime technology and have it used by their duplicating leader to impregnate several women-leading to supers not only with doctored in superpowers, but the man's own duplicating power as well.

Bio-Augmentation / int_81692f99	comment	The Star Trek universe does not indulge in this to a great deal but it's reasonable to believe they have the technology for it, given that when someone needs to pass as, say, Romulan or Cardassian (or Cardassian posing as a human in one case), they can drop into sick bay for some Magic Plastic Surgery and genuine pointy ears. The Federation banned it due to having the genetic engineering equivalent to a Robot War. Earth's early attempts created A Villain Named Khan and his supermen, superior in mind and body but too aggressive. Having been engineered to be superior to ordinary humans, they felt that they should rule the ordinary humans. They ended up starting the Eugenics Wars before being defeated and exiled as Human Popsicles. This causes a major problem for Dr. Bashir when he gets found out. Genetically enhanced humans were eventually dubbed "Augments". Star Trek: Enterprise mentions that this ban was inherited from the United Earth before founding the Federation, but it's never discussed if a society that regularly used genetic engineering could join the Federation. Upon learning of these Augments and gaining samples of their DNA, the Klingons decided to give it a go. It backfired spectacularly, with those affected losing their Klingon appearance and strength and many of them dying of complications caused by the genetic chaos. Bashir would later be charged with the care of a quartet of... slightly off Augments in "Statistical Improbabilities". The four are able to postulate how the Dominion War will end... and then try and facilitate the Federation's surrender to prevent the needless waste of life. Despite the ban, the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Unnatural Selection" has the Federation allow a research station to develop an "ideal" human species. With long lifespans, improved intelligence, youthful appearance, telepathy, and an advanced immune system, they're the scientists' every dream... almost. On the other hand, the Dominion, the Federation's Evil Counterpart, is a huge genetic engineering society. Jem'Hadar were created from nothingnote Or, according to some fan theories, from modifying the Tosk (who have weaker versions of the special abilities demonstrated by the Jem'Hadar), themselves genetically engineered., Vorta bred from some other form; and it's stated that the Founders were once humanoids but genetically engineered themselves into shape-shifters. It is even supposed that their close-mindedness is the price they paid for their new body abilities. The Suliban on Star Trek: Enterprise obey a mysterious figure from the future, known to fans only as "Future Guy" since his identity is never revealed, in exchange for genetic upgrades. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds shows that the Federation not only refuses any genetic augmentation of its citizens, but it also refuses to accept any new members who have been genetically enhanced. The Illyrians are one such species. There's even a Starfleet regulation that prohibits mixing human and Illyrian blood. A group of them were so desperate to join they tried to reverse their genetic augmentations. It also turns out that Number One is secretly Illyrian, and both M'Benga and Chapel are more than willing to use her blood to synthesize a cure if it can save the crew, regardless of the regs.

"Mods" are easy to install or replace and are ubiquitous in daily life: they include fashion options, memory enhancements, health boosters, and work-specific augmentations. Some are as simple as shopping for a new eye color or cat ears, while others are as intensive as full-body modifications to withstand long space journeys. One of the main characters has a condition that prevents her from using most mods, which is what kicks off the plot.

The former are humans genetically engineered to be peak mental and physical specimens of the human race, the latter are ordinary humans turned supersoldiers through years of mental conditioning and carefully administered drug regimens. The Human Reform League in Mobile Suit Gundam 00 also uses genetic engineering to create Super Soldiers with telepathic ability. Such a project produced Allelujah and Soma. The Universal Century has Cyber-Newtypes from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam on. Using a combination of surgery, drugs, and mental conditioning, ordinary humans can be given the reaction times and psychic abilities of newtypes. The downside is sharp drop in mental stability, especially in the earlier examples. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans has the Alaya-Vijnana system, a Brain/Computer Interface implant that takes the form of protrusions from the spine called "whiskers". The surgical procedure is painful and dangerous, at least in the crude form used by ruthless mercenary groups on cast-off children. The prevailing "pure humanity" ideology of Earth opposes even basic prosthetics, so A-V users face significant prejudice.

The Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight two-parter "Infection" (issues #83-84) revolves around Batman having to fight two escapees from a governmental science lab who were infected with a genetically tailored virus created during the Cold War that induced this effect to create Super Soldiers. The infectees were given increased strength and durability, built-in guns that fired bullets of sharpened bone, specialized organs that let them cannibalize human corpses to replenish their supply of ammo, and programmed delusions that compelled them to "retake America from the Commies", as well as the ability to produce pustules that would disperse an infectious variant of the virus, allowing a single survivor to infect dozens, or even hundreds, of individuals. Far Sector: The City has the means to rewrite biology using engineered viruses, called "meatware", that only the @Ats can code. In Krypton No More, Supergirl tells Superman they are not Kryptonians but mutant humans who got powers through being genetically modified.

A third gender was also introduced, having No Biological Sex until, usually during their teen years, they fall in love and their body changes to the gender opposite of their intended (not a conscious choice on their part). We're also shown a group of cloned sisters who all have Super-Strength and were rapidly grown to adulthood within a few years. Then there's the leadership of Sidonia, the Immortal Council, who, as their name suggests, are biologically immortal and do not ever age. Their existence is kept secret from the general populace.

Bio-Augmentation / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine recruits go through an extensive and extremely taxing series of implantations of extra organs that cause massive physiological changes. These organs have their own genetic lineage, that can be traced back to each legion's primarch.note Which leads to the common misconception that Space Marines themselves are genetically modified. The process is detailed here. The Thunder Warriors, the Space Marines' predecessors, were augmented using a far less refined process with the details unknown. The Thunder Warriors were even stronger than the Space Marines and Custodes but were also physically and psychologically unstable and had shortened lifespans, making them unsuitable for the Emperor's long-term goals of galactic conquest. The Custodes were augmented using a refined version of the same process that created the Thunder Warriors. While less powerful than the Thunder Warriors, the Custodes are still stronger than the Space Marines and have similarly extended lifespans, making them the most powerful warriors in the Imperium. The few known details revealed about the procedure show that it's even more extreme and difficult than the process used to create a Space Marine. As a result, each Custodes is a costly investment to the Imperium. The Primaris Marines introduced in Eighth Edition were created to aid the Imperium in its darkest hour. The Space Marine creation process was modified by Archmagos Cawl to include parts of the Custodes' creation process. The Primaris Marines have three additional gene-seed organs: metal coils that enhance their strength and endurance, half of the same "God-maker" organ that was used to create the Primarchs, and another organ that pumps them full of stimulants when they are near death. They are also overall bigger, stronger, and faster than baseline Space Marines. "Rubicon Primaris" is the procedure that was eventually developed to upgrade an Astartes into a Primaris. Marneus Calgar was the first to volunteer for the procedure since he wanted to help bridge the cultural gap between the new Primaris Marines and the older Astartes. While the procedure was successful, it was extremely agonizing and risky — Cawl estimated it would have a 66% success and survival rate at best. Calgar did in fact die on the operating table, but fortunately his new Belisarius Furnace pumped his hearts full of stimulants and resuscitated him. The Horus Heresy novels have implied that there's more at work in the augmentation process than "just" super science. It's been hinted that a bit of the Emperor's own psychic power is passed on through the gene-seed, and without it the augmentation would always fail. This is why Blanks, humans who negate psychic power, cannot be made into Astartes.

The protagonist in particular used a mod that dulls emotions to keep the mind clear for rational/tactical thinking (standard issue for police officers) to not be bothered by his wife's death, which is implied to be a semi-common form of abusing mods.

Bio-Augmentation / int_e5de447c	comment	X-COM: In the XCOM: Enemy Unknown expansion pack Enemy Within, you have the option to upgrade your troops with gene mods to increase their combat potential. The modifications include, among others, increased muscle density, which allows them to jump to rooftops, a secondary heart, which prevents them from dying instantly to otherwise fatal hits, and mimetic skin, which lets them blend with the environment. The more grotesque side of the trope is seen in the EXALT Elite Operatives; it's implied that their augmentations were completely unrestrained, unlike XCOM's, and are proportionally more powerful — however, they're inhumanly pale and you can visibly see that something's very wrong with them. Their gene-mods in the game data reflect this; XCOM gene mods may be powerful, but EXALT gene mods are arguably moreso. XCOM's gene mods are completely "clean" by comparison. A New Game Plus option for Enemy Unknown gives gene mods the negative side-effect of being unable to develop psionic powers. The Game Mod "The Long War" also has this option, but even when disabled, always gives this side-effect to the gene mod "neural damping" that protects a soldier from enemy psionics (so in short, in LW it's an anti-psionics gene mod). In XCOM 2, because Humans Are Special the aliens have been upgraded with human DNA after conquering Earth, making the Sectoids stronger and the Dumb Muscle Mutons smarter. Conversely, ADVENT's Faceless Goons are revealed to be Half Human Hybrids that were former humans augmented with alien DNA and then used to create a Clone Army.

Bio-Augmentation / int_ec91d418	comment	This trope plays a large role in the world of Lazarus: The story takes place after modern society has collapsed and a few corporations/obscenely wealthy individuals have taken control of large areas of the world, turning these areas under their control into their personal fiefdoms. While these groups all have their different strengths and weaknesses, the Carlyle family which controls nearly all of the Western US and Canada is known for using biological expertise to not only enhance themselves with nearly eternal youth, but also to bio-enhance seeds so that enough food can be grown in the inhospitable, possibly irradiated environment. While the Carlyles have a very competent and developed military, it's their bio-enhancing expertise that keeps them from being destroyed by the other families, as the other families all desperately crave the life sustaining secrets of the Carlyles and need the crops the Carlyles can grow. The main character Forever Carlyle has been bio-enhanced to be superhumanly fast, strong, and have a Healing Factor that will let her shrug off anything short of being decapitated or an explosion that reduces her to mincemeat. She also turns out to be a biological experiment specifically created to be the main enforcer and military leader of the Carlyle family.

Bio-Augmentation / int_ee04f49a	comment	Deus Ex Universe: Deus Ex has the protagonist, his brother and the two main antagonists equipped with "nano-augmentations". In the sequel Deus Ex: Invisible War, this technology is much more widespread. In the prequel Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the vast majority of augmentation are still of the mechanical sort, as nanomachine-based augmentation isn't even being tested yet. That said, a sidequest does reveal that bio-augmentation tests performed on infants (presumably not using nanomachines) was the reason that Adam's body can accept augmentation without the use of any drugs, and the ending implies that what was recovered of this technology from Adam's body was used to create the Denton brothers.

Metroid Dread expands on this, revealing that Samus was augmented with the DNA of two different tribes of Chozo: the peaceful and scientific-minded Tholha and the Proud Warrior Race Guy Mawkin. The Big Bad of the game Raven Beak, the former leader and Sole Survivor of the Mawkin, is revealed to have been the Chozo who donated the Mawkin genes to her.
