Organic Technology	comment	If a society in Science Fiction isn't either following Technology Levels or magic, then you can rest assured that they're making use of organic technology. Cars, planes, phones, computers, buildings, spaceships, weapons (including artillery and war vehicles) and everything else required for a proper sci-fi story will be provided in the form of something that is warm, moist, skooshy and drips goo everywhere. Often, this will go so far as to include a convenient thought-based interface. Manipulation of organic matter may be part of the technology as a whole, or even what enabled the tech in the first place. Advanced nanotechnology, when not depicted as the classic blobs of liquid metal, will often be depicted in a similar but decidedly more synthetic fashion.note think androids made of milky-white artificial flesh and the like instead of something more overtly meaty This type of tech is a common feature of sea-dwelling sapients. Not only are cities entirely made out of cool-looking coral, it's a technological evolutionary path that does not start with the step "set something on fire" or "throw wheels on it", which for a species that lives entirely underwater would be, respectively, impossible and generally useless. Likewise, excessive humidity wouldn't cause important stuff to short out. Civilizations who use this technology are also frequently users of Sufficiently Advanced Bamboo Technology. Depending on the aesthetic choices of the depiction, the organic technology may seem Ambiguously Robotic as well. Organic technology is sometimes portrayed as especially advanced. If the organic technology is a staple of the setting or theme, compare Bio Punk. Often crosses over with LEGO Genetics and is depicted as a Sculpted Physique. Often used by a Horde of Alien Locusts. See Living Ship for one specific example. Compare Bio-Augmentation, which could be Organic Technology applied to the human body in new and fun ways. Contrast Mechanical Lifeforms, which are organisms that happen to be mechanical in nature. Often creates the Womb Level in games. A Hive Caste System is based on using naturally evolved biology rather than technology made from biology. Applied to agriculture, the end result of this trope is often a Multipurpose Monocultured Crop. This is becoming an actual thing. Interestingly, Real Life synthetic biology seems to be going the reverse direction of this trope: making biology look more like chemistry and nanotechnology, rather than making technology more like biology. Whether we'll get our meaty jetpacks remains to be seen. Examples

Organic Technology / int_13d238e8	comment	Mare Internum: It turns out that an ancient Martian race relied on this type of technology. Remnants of it are still living underneath the martian surface, and are at first glance indistinguishable from a naturally evolved ecosystem. Some sort of fungus starts growing on the protagonist, somehow allowing him to breath the atmosphere, and a surviving Martian remarks that it's as disturbing as seeing someone with "a toaster fused to their face".

Later, investigation of a Precursor lab confirms the Warpers are artificial life forms bio-engineered to act as "quarantine enforcers" that hunt down and kill any life infected with the Kharaa bacterium. Their lack of a digestive system is because they get their energy beamed from the same power generators that are powering the alien buildings.

Justified by the planet's unique geography with mobile islands providing isolation of species and occasional "cross-pollination". Rather subtle and mostly simple, but proves very widespread as the story progresses. Genetics hasn't been discussed so far, and everything seems to either be readily available in nature or require limited artificial selection. Examples include miraculous drugs (mainly of fungal origin), living lightbulbs, hiveminds, translating birds, loudspeaker birds, squids and barnacles as Abnormal Ammo, and "jellyflesh" — a Lost Technology that allows creating prostheses and autonomous self-replicating robots called "shadows".

Interestingly, it's specifically noted that Amnion biotech is much less efficient than human technology, even though individual pieces are more advanced. It's for this reason that they haven't tried to assimilate humanity into their hive mind: they know that if it comes to a straight-up war they could not match our production capacity.

Justified by the fact that they have a very powerful patron goddess, who decided to experiment and turned herself into a tree a while back. So, naturally, the seeds of the tree that is technically a deity grow into very, very powerful and useful plants. The trees that form the basis of Jurai technology are therefore technically lesser gods or at least demigods, though the Juraians themselves don't think of it that way. Which is a point of contention with one of their major rival nations, the theocratic Airai, who think Jurai doesn't deserve the blessing of gods they don't even worship.

SCP-127 looks like an ordinary MP5K sub-machine gun on the outside, but the inside is made of flesh and bone, and the bullets it fires vaguely resemble human teeth. SCP-1000 ("Bigfoot"). At the height of their civilization, SCP-1000 "made trees and birds of prey grow into fast-moving ships, herds of animals that became trains, bushes that became flying vehicles. From insects and pigeons they made things equivalent to cell phones, televisions, computers. Atomic bombs." SCP-1569 ("Jumbo Shrimp"). SCP-1569 resembles an enormous peacock mantis shrimp, but it turns out to be some kind of "biological vehicle" when a humanoid being emerges from it and tries to escape the facility. Then a D-Class test subject manages to activate it, but his biology proved to be not entirely compatible and it didn't end well. An entire Group of Interest from the Russian branch, "Meat Circus" The Sarkic cults are capable of biological engineering via anomalous means, and consider it a holy imperative. Think monsters that used to be people and living cities made of bone and flesh (which also used to be people). The Daevites, the empire destroyed by the Sarkic slave uprising, were similarly skilled in biological engineering, but mostly applied it to plant life.

Moya was unquestionably "alive," and sentient, but many of her systems were mechanical even if they were "grown," such as the beetle-like repair robots.

It does, however, have car-related elements if you look very closely; the bark of the trees resemble tire treads, leaves have tire tread and VW logo-shaped veins, and flowers are shaped like either tailfins, head-and-taillights, or cooling fans. In other words, organic fuel.

Several groups fill the space: Mentats, the human computers; the Bene Gesserit, the super-witch training program; and the Spacing Guild, which uses prescient drug-addicts to navigate hyperspace. Tleilax's major export is organic technology, raging from clones, shapeshapers, and even rogue mentats. The Tleilaxu get a lot of crap for doing this, but it doesn't hamper business too much. According to the prequels done by the son of the author, they got a bad rep for stealing organs, while there was a big-ass demand in the war with the machines. Even more jarring are their Axlotl tanks, which are Tleilaxu females forced in a vegetated state to create gholas.

Organic Technology / int_81692f99	comment	Star Trek couldn't resist this one: Star Trek: Voyager: Species 8472 seem to use entirely organic technology. They actually originate from Another Dimension called Fluidic Space, which seems to be some sort of organic area in of itself, which the Borg attempted to conquer, as established in "Scorpion". They found that it backfired on them because Species 8472 is impervious to their nanotechnology, which meant the Borg had no way to either assimilate or analyze their biology on their own. The USS Voyager itself has its circuitry embedded with bio-neural gel packs, an interesting idea (in that brain cells are supposed to be better at computing than the fastest computer) that is dealt with in a single episode in the first season — "Learning Curve" — and then pretty much forgotten. (The episode memorably involves a massive system failure which is traced back to the bacterial culture used to make some cheese infecting them.) The bio-neural gel packs are brought up again at least one more time much later, in the episode "One", involving a nebula extremely deadly to living things and very damaging to technology. With the crew in stasis chambers, and only Seven of Nine and the Doctor to run the ship for three months, keeping the ship going is a chore thanks in no part to these gel packs. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In their introductory episode, it is mentioned that the Breen species use partially organic systems in their ships. Star Trek: The Next Generation: In the episode "Tin Man", our plucky crew encounters an entirely biological spacecraft whose crew had been killed off, and it's pretty bummed out about it. The pilot episode, "Encounter at Farpoint", involves this trope as well. In the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Dead Stop", the crew comes across a near magical repair station that apparently used the brains of various unconscious aliens to enhance its computer system. It does have an adverse effect on the minds of those connected, and they tend to make the brain useless for any other purpose if connected for too long. Speaking of brains, there is "Spock's Brain" from Star Trek: The Original Series. Star Trek: Discovery bases its Crossfield-class starships around a "displacement-activated spore-hub drive", which allows a starship to travel the universe on a mycelial network of Prototaxites stellaviatori. This requires using both the spores of this fungus and an organic, sentient navigator to direct the ship through the network. Star Trek: Picard introduces organo-synthetic beings (sometimes referred to as flesh-and-blood robots).

Organic Technology / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: The Numidium is a Dwemer-constructed Humongous Mecha designed to be powered by the heart of a dead god (and later powered by what is believed to be that god's soul), which distorts reality around it whenever it is activated. Some of its blueprints/drawings depict it as having a ribcage and spine. (Akulakhan, another mecha built from Numidium's blueprints, also has these organic-looking components.) It's also theorized that its armor or other structural components are what all the Dwemer were transformed into after their mysterious disappearance. It played a major role in the series' backstory, where Tiber Septim used it to complete his conquest of Tamriel, and then shows up in Daggerfall as a major plot point. At the end of Daggerfall, it causes a Time Crash which makes each of the game's mutually exclusive Multiple Endings all happen at once, though none to the same extent they would have individually. Morrowind: Telvanni architecture is this plus Fungus Humongous. They magically grow fungi and mold them into Mage Towers. Players can employ Silt Striders: gigantic, domesticated arthropods that are used to rapidly travel from city to city in the game world. The striders essentially appear akin to enormous fleas. The striders have portions of their shell removed from their back so that the driver, or 'caravaner', can poke at the sensitive flesh underneath to goad the strider in the desired direction. Their shells are further carved or modified to hold cargo or passengers, based on need. In Skyrim, the Falmer, a race of fallen elves, have a symbiotic relationship with insectoid creatures known as Chaurus. Much of their technology looks like Chaurus body parts that are still moving. Also, Telvanni technology returns in the Dragonborn DLC.

If that's not ridiculous enough for you, try the snails that can project images from their eyes and onto walls. Or the white one that emits psychic waves to act as a jamming device so the speaker has a secure channel. This is likely based on a real life attempt at this trope, Jacques Toussaint Benoit's Pasilalinic-Sympathetic Compass aka the "Snail Telegraph". He believed that snails that have mated form a permanent telepathic link and can be used to send and receive long distance telegrams by manipulating their bodies. It didn't work.note It was possibly a scam all along. He had managed to convince one person he demonstrated it to but not the other. The other called him out and demanded a stricter test to be performed. Benoit failed to arrive to the second test and was never taken seriously again, dying as a penniless drunk on the streets of Paris less than two years later. Dials might also be this, being somewhat uncommonly found sea shells possessing various and useful abilities to store things like sounds or explosions. One Piece Film: Gold introduced red eyed owls which act as a laser alarm grid. Anything that passes under the owls' sight causes them all to start shooting loudly alerting their owner to a trespasser.

Organic Technology / int_a2a386c9	comment	Orion's Arm: Biotech is relatively common, alongside hylotech (mechanical technology) and syntech (a hybrid of the two). Societies that rely wholly on biotech and eschew machines altogether do exist, but are very rare. It's worth noting that a lot of hylotech draws inspiration from biology, so there's no longer much distinction between the two, and biotech needn't be entirely composed of living tissue: for example, bioships have non-living shells which are created by biological means, similar to how shellfish grow their shells.

Only the outer hull cladding — according to the novelization, that is a bio-engineered compound that is both anechoic (sonar-defeating) and self-sealing. The rest of the ship is just a very, VERY big submarine. It's implied in several episodes that the organic skin is flexible and coats a normal steel shell. This becomes a problem in the episode dealing with a disease affecting marine life. The sub's hull also proves susceptible to it.

Organic Technology / int_a825da3e	comment	From Magic: The Gathering, we have the Phyrexians. Even in their first appearances, they blur all sorts of lines between Organic Technology, The Virus, Magitek, Necromancy, and Cybernetics Eat Your Soul. Recently however, the Scars of Mirrodin block gave us Phyrexians in all five colors, not just Black. In particular the leader of the Green-aligned faction, Vorinclex, believes that Phyrexians should be grown, not built. A (slightly) Lighter and Softer version of this is present in the Simic Combine of Ravnica. Contributing to the Dungeon Punk element of the world, this guild uses magic to engineer new creatures to serve all kinds of roles, mostly in the form of this trope; living zeppelins are just one of the examples to appear in the cards. Based on the combination of Blue Mana and Green Mana, they believe the purpose of life is to evolve, and seek to use magic and experimentation to guide evolution towards a nebulous "perfection". The magical equivalent of organ-grafts and gene-splicing is their stock in trade, and they readily exploit their position as Ravnica's doctors to further their experiments. They experiment on themselves, too — in fact, the lower ranked members of the guild are known for a rather high mortality rate, as they tend to be forced to serve as experiment test subjects; if they're lucky, they gain a useful implant, mutation or other alteration. If they're unlucky, more often than not, they dissolve painfully into a mass of protoplasmic goo.

Organic Technology / int_b8e7bb8	comment	Super Sentai and its adaptation Power Rangers. Depending on the season, both the heroic and villainous sides alternate with using this trope. In general, series in which the Rangers use animal based powers, the Humongous Mecha tends to be made up from living creatures. Both the villains and heroes from Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger use organic technology. Power Rangers: Dino Thunder downplays this trope, placing more emphasis on technology. Almost everything the heroes use is alive in some way. Their weapons can act on their own. For transportation, they use biomechanical raptors and their Humongous Mecha are sentient highly evolved dinosaurs. In Dino Thunder, everything is just technology that isn't alive. The villains live and breathe this trope. Their Monsters of the Week consist of plant, animal and technological components, while their vehicles and base of operations all resemble organic beings. Played with in the Direct-to-DVD movie of Tokumei Sentai Go Busters named Tokumei Sentai Gobusters Returns Vs Dobutsu Sentai Gobusters. In the regular series, the team is a technological team of secret agents. The movie partially takes place an an alternate universe which reimagines the team as a nature themed Super Sentai. The cockpit of their Humongous Mecha resembles a forest, with the controls consisting of treebranches and leaves.

Organic Technology / int_bcadd7cb	comment	The Tyranids from the Warhammer 40,000 universe epitomize the trope insofar as it relates to tools of warfare; their every military need, from weapons to starcraft, is met by complex interlocking creatures specially engineered for the purpose. Their 'technology' is not only suspiciously well-suited to its function, but suspiciously sadistic in its execution. The original and ancient Warhammer 40,000 sourcebook, Rogue Trader, had "organic weapons" (such as organic chainswords) that were essentially bio-engineered duplicates of mechanical versions made of flesh and bone rather than steel and ceramics, apparently a curiosity widely used. The Tyranids were notable for always using them, but at this point the Tyranids were just random bugs rather than the galaxy-eating, wall-of-teeth Great Devourer. Since 3rd edition and the 'Nids new models, it is becoming increasingly difficult to spot where the bio-weapon ends and the Tyranid carrying it begins. The game also plays organic technology in the only way it would work, which is to dial it to eleven. Creatures have nothing they don't need to do their job, not even digestive tracts — they're expected to die before they starve. They just eat until they're completely full, then dive into "digestion pools" created by the Tyrannoforming of the planet, recycling the Tyranid and everything it's eaten into genetic material and other raw materials useful to the Hive Fleet. Their close combat weapons are forged in biological furnaces and then affixed to the creature in question and their bodies are almost entirely armored carapace. Even their soft tissues are built of materials similar to Kevlar. They are not your average squishy biological version of this trope, they are armored hell-beasts designed with one singular purpose — relentless assault. Tyranid bio weapons are notably inferior individually to their non-organic counterparts though, and their space fleets are noted to be inferior to every other faction's. It is their single minded purpose and sheer numbers that make the Tyranids so deadly.

Organic Technology / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: The Time Lords themselves — the new series states that the TARDIS is alive. "It's not built: It's grown." Like a coral. And the RTD-era desktop theme reinforces it. Furthermore, they are sentient, most famously being the Doctor's own TARDIS, whose state of sentience is explored in "The Doctor's Wife", where her matrix is implanted into a physical human body, allowing her to communicate with him for a while. This idea is further supported in the Expanded Universe novels. The "Cat's Cradle" arc in the Doctor Who New Adventures novels has the Doctor needing to replace the organic material that the TARDIS uses for calculations that are impossible on conventional computers. Lungbarrow introduces the idea of sentient houses that are the ancestral homes of the different clans (kith) of the Time Lords. One Time Lord of each house becomes the "house keeper" and literally marries and has a somewhat symbiotic relationship with the house. The Axons from the Pertwee-era episode "The Claws of Axos" claim that their technology "had taken an organic turn". Considering that even their ship is part of the Axos Hive Mind, this makes sense. "Terror of the Zygons": The Zygons' tech is organic — their computers look more like coral than machinery. However, only the interior appears organic; the exterior seems to be a metal hull. "Smith and Jones": The two slabs ("basic slave drones") working for the villain are made of solid leather, prompting the Doctor to comment that "Someone has got one hell of a fetish." "The Woman Who Fell to Earth": The "data coil" used by the antagonist is, as the Doctor puts it, not so much a lifeform as a collection of lifeforms repurposed into an advanced computer. "The Witchfinders": The sacred tree on Pendle Hill that Becka Savage chopped down and turned into a ducking stool was actually an incredibly old piece of alien biotechnology serving as the lock of the prison of the Morax, who were reduced to primal elements and buried beneath.

Their Basestars are also partially organic, and are controlled by a human-like organic 'Hybrid' permanently linked to the Basestar. And the Cylons themselves are Artificial Humans. The first glimpse of the interior of a Basestar was a horrible gooey Giger-esque organic landing platform. Subsequent episodes revealed the "living areas" of the Basestars are more Crystal Spires and Togas — possibly because they're less distracting/revolting/expensive for the longer, more complex scenes set in them.

On Remus, this involves such things as buildings grown out of rocks by introducing engineered, microscopic fungi into them (which hollow out the insides while secreting enzymes which strengthen the "walls"), fields plowed by oxen whose tails were modified into farm tools, and long-range communication via birds with organic radio and ultrasonic capabilities. They also possess incredible genetic engineering abilities, going so far as to, in one of the endings, be able to modify the entire population of the Tiqqun into green-skinned posthumans like them simply by introducing retrovirii into the atmosphere. The Piranesi, which isn't ever explicitly stated to be organic but is said to look from the inside more like a living creature than a machine, in order to highlight just how alien and impossibly advanced is the technology used to build it.

Cloneblades aren't too choosy in accepting wielders, their performance seems to be superior to Witchblade with a novice host (if not to the full limits of a thing whose raw power blast can ruin half a city), but they have a small problem: as not really living, they do not regenerate.

In fact it was said that because of the organic composition of their ships and general insufficient power utilization, if they had a significant power source their ships can "grow" and become near-unstoppable juggernauts. In the Grand Finale, one of these ships adapted a ZPM (the magical power sources that Atlantis cannot seem to find enough of) and it became powerful enough to lay waste to any ship it came across. And at this point Earth ships were capable of going toe-to-toe with the Ori ships. In the Homecoming novel, it's stated that Wraith tech ages just like any other living being, becoming worse with age. When Todd returns to his hive ship, he finds it in a sorry state, his clevermen struggling to graft new hull chunks onto damaged sections, and the ship rejecting the grafts.

Organic Technology / int_e5c5bc22	comment	GURPS: GURPS has two takes on biotech depending on the setting/society in a setting — either it begins to show up (beyond the modern-day applications) around tech level 9note one level above the current modern day, or it is the result of a divergent tech levelnote expressed 'x'+'y' where the sum is the equivalent tech level, x is the tech level shared with the standard — in extreme cases this can be 0 — and y is however far they've gotten on their alternate path that may well be equivalent to a lower tech level than the modern day. GURPS Bio-Tech is all about this when discussing high tech levels. Aside from the various new pieces of tech presented in the book (including a sentient sponge-brain-tree-Neo Christian house) the writers also suggest that one can simply treat advanced technology from other sourcebooks as being organic in origin. The third edition sourcebook "Robots" includes rules for creating biological androids using biotech. This sourcebook also includes rules for combining traditional robots with biotech in the form of living flesh and intestinal power convertors.

You actually get to see (and blow up) the facility where they grow their ships (among other vital constructs). Also, the Bio-Drone from X-COM: Terror from the Deep. It's a vat of human brains on an anti-grav unit, with vocal cords attached to a sonic gun. Ditto the Reticulans in the Spiritual Successor series UFO: After Blank, who employ all sorts of purpose-grown weapons, creatures, and equipment. Their successors in later games use more conventionally built goodies, however, inverting X-COM's use of the trope. The reboot has an assault on an alien base with giant, pulsing intestines in the background.

Organic Technology / int_e6267766	comment	The Yuuzhan Vong in Star Wars Legends, for whom this (along with rampant masochism) is their hat. They even declare a holy war against the Galaxy Far, Far Away for daring to create nonliving mockeries of what life can accomplish. This is played on part way in when Lando develops a droid so insulting to this belief that most warriors break cover and and attack, thus revealing themselves to fire. It's later explained that the Vong's original home planet was a Genius Loci, leading them to naturally adapt living things as tools rather than machines (originally the planet itself would have been responsible for this; later Vong scientists, or "Shapers", learned to do it themselves). Their extreme hatred for inorganic machines, particularly droids, has roots in the fact that early in their history they were nearly wiped out by a race of sapient machines. Another Genius Loci, the Rogue Planet Zonoma Sekot (the child of the Vong homeworld), produces organic starships. When the Vong land on Zonoma Sekot, their bio-engineered weapons revert to their natural state and refuse to kill anymore, proving that the Vong's extreme violence and war-mongering were in fact a deviation from their originally peaceful nature and a blasphemy against their own gods. In Galaxy of Fear, several of Gog's weapons from project Starscream are organic in nature, each designed to perform a specific function, including one similar to the Genius Loci mentioned above, with the last being a combination of all of the successful Starscream projects.

Due to the extreme amount of time they've gone without upkeep by their creators, over the generations their original programming "drifted" and has become a religion revolving around the incomprehensible "Juffo-Wup". Heed their babble and you'll get fragments of their developers' speech from Genetic Memory. The Umgah, another alien race from the same series, are so obsessed with genetic engineering that, even though their ships are mechanical, the corridors and interfaces are all fleshy, for easy modification (read: mutation). Unfortunately for interstellar relations, the Umgah have been so free and careless with their genetic modifications of themselves that every last one of them is violently insane and possesses a warped sense of humor and a childlike oblivious cruelty.

They actually originate from Another Dimension called Fluidic Space, which seems to be some sort of organic area in of itself, which the Borg attempted to conquer, as established in "Scorpion". They found that it backfired on them because Species 8472 is impervious to their nanotechnology, which meant the Borg had no way to either assimilate or analyze their biology on their own. The USS Voyager itself has its circuitry embedded with bio-neural gel packs, an interesting idea (in that brain cells are supposed to be better at computing than the fastest computer) that is dealt with in a single episode in the first season — "Learning Curve" — and then pretty much forgotten. (The episode memorably involves a massive system failure which is traced back to the bacterial culture used to make some cheese infecting them.) The bio-neural gel packs are brought up again at least one more time much later, in the episode "One", involving a nebula extremely deadly to living things and very damaging to technology. With the crew in stasis chambers, and only Seven of Nine and the Doctor to run the ship for three months, keeping the ship going is a chore thanks in no part to these gel packs.

Organic Technology / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Samus Aran's Power Suit, since the X Parasites were able to infect and then replicate it in Metroid Fusion. Its appearance goes through a very radical change as seen during the beginning of Fusion. This is the result of the Galactic Federation surgically removing its mechanical armor plating in an attempt to remove the X Parasite from Samus' body, along with her receiving the Metroid vaccine to save her life. Now referred to as the Fusion Suit, the two aforementioned procedures caused it to be scaled down to mostly having a blue muscle fiber exterior* This wasn't originally clear in Fusion, as the blue portions of the Fusion Suit had more of a shiny silicone-like appearance. Retroactively, this was changed when it reappeared in Metroid: Samus Returns (donned only in Fusion Mode) and Metroid Dread (seen in the intro, showcasing flashbacks of a few events from Fusion), now having a muscle fiber exterior. Sometime before Dread takes place, the suit had apparently regenerated parts of its mechanical plating. Even when it gains more plating as it upgrades into the Varia Suit, then later into the Gravity Suit, all these variations for the suit still showcase bits of its muscle fibers. And much later on in Dread, Samus' Metroid DNA fully awakens after seemingly being killed by Raven Beak. This causes her suit to transform into the Metroid Suit. Its exterior lacks the muscle fibers from before, but is now clearly plated with a green organic exoskeleton, complete with carapace and fang-like protrusions all over. Samus' glowing red visor and the red Tron Lines seen on the Metroid Suit's armor are the only things keeping it from looking completely organic, although said Tron Lines are patterned in a way that look almost like veins. Also from Fusion, the security robot B.O.X., which is mostly mechanical, does have an organic CPU. There also exists the Nightmare, a massive creature that can manipulate gravity and is explicitly stated to be a bio-mechanical organism. Dark Samus, being a Phazon-based clone of Samus' armor (read: not Samus and her armor, just the armor), is this in her entirety. Her design in the Metroid Prime Trilogy already looks more bio-mechanical than Samus, and her appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate further emphasizes this by showing pulsating veins and carapace-like ridges on her "armor." The most famous example of biotech in Metroid is, of course, Mother Brain. But the Metroids themselves also count, as they were engineered by the Chozo to combat the X Parasites. Of note, the Space Pirates in the Prime games progressively began to use Organic Technology almost exclusively. This may be a bit of a plot point, as the game lore in Prime 3 suggests. Kanden's scan log in Metroid Prime: Hunters states that his version of the Volt Driver is a Living Weapon. Almost all Alimbic technology in Metroid Prime: Hunters has organic parts, and you go through some of the factory areas where the organic components are cultured. You even pass through an area with what looks like a brain-based computer. Even the Federation uses it, having created Mother Brain-like super computers called Aurora Units and cybernetic war robots. The Torizo statues that stand guard over certain Chozo technology in Super Metroid will awaken to repel intruders. After a Torizo takes enough damage, it begins to "bleed" an organic fluid. In Metroid: Zero Mission, the Wave Beam can't pass through Chozo Statues, even with the ability to pass through solid objects. The Plasma Beam however, with the ability to pierce through organic matter, does pass through Chozo Statues, implying that they are at least somewhat organic in nature.

Organic Technology / int_f74b5f80	comment	Babylon 5: The Vorlons and the Shadows both went this route. It's implied to be in some ways the ultimate form of technology, with ships which can heal themselves and think for themselves. The Ikarrans, a long dead race from a thousand years ago, also used organic tech, some of which still works and posed a serious threat to the station itself in "Infection".

Organic Technology / int_f8df4747	comment	In The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye, creating organic technology is a major project for the Grand Architect and his minions. Deconstructed, as it takes a huge amount of trial-and-error to create even the most basic things, and most of their experiments in this vein end in failure; at one point we see a ship of theirs that had a biotechnological room... which proceeded to bleed severely and decay after taking enough damage, with the blood leaking into critical systems and tainting the fuel supply, causing the ship to crash.

Organic Technology / int_fb96b3ea	comment	The Morthagi of Wildermyth are clockwork undead: mechanical creatures composed of a combination of metal and once-living organic body parts. They were originally created through a complex process of artifice and magic, and though the Mortificers who made them are gone, the Morthagi remain indefinitely self-sustaining.

Organic Technology / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers: Whether or not the bots from Beast Wars qualify is up to a great amount of confusion. However, the Maximals became explicitly techno-organic technology in Beast Machines. The Vok in Beast Wars seem to utilise this. Series writer Larry DiTillio even proposed the bits of tech were the Vok themselves. Their third season depiction as giant floating skulls shattered this, though. Transformers: Animated: Blackarachnia and Wasp(inator) are techno-organic, the first from using her power-copying ability on giant organic spiders, the second from Blackarachnia using Transwarp energy to fuse Wasp with a hornet. One thing to note is that in Animated, Transformers have either an aversion if not downright fear of organic beings (Autobots) or a deep disdain/hatred of them (Decepticons). There's also Prometheus Black AKA Meltdown, who sold "bio-upgrades" until he went full Mad Scientist. This results in a couple Gonks turning into supermodels, a Bane expy, and himself becoming a Walking Wasteland. In his next appearance he's trying to create a fully organic Transformer. Uh... ew? Sari is eventually revealed to be a (small) Transformer with a human alt-mode and flesh, though the organic parts only seem to be on the exterior. Transformers: Prime confirms during "Operation: Bumblebee" that Cybertronians do have techno-organic parts, such as Bumblebee's damaged voice box, and their T-Cogs, the part that enables them to transform. This is used to Hand Wave away the question of why they simply can't just manufacture replacements damaged or missing parts of their bodies, despite being Mechanical Lifeforms.

Organic Technology / int_febb8460	comment	The God-Warrior in NausicaÃ¤ of the Valley of the Wind is essentially a robot made of flesh; having to fire it's Breath Weapon before it's fully mature causes it to slough apart. In the manga, it's an organic being that grows over an essentially metal or ceramic skeleton. No reason is ever given for why the God Warrior skull Nausicaa climbs at the very beginning of the manga has a cockpit. The ecosystem of the forest and the Crypt of Shuwa are also examples.
