[SIZE=9pt]Strengths:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Enhanced healing factor allows the subject to recover from most superficial wounds in seconds (cannot heal from mortal wounds or missing limbs)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Enhanced strength from muscle strength being increased to allow the subject strength enough to lift over 100kg with one hand[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Weaknesses:[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Metabolic system of the subject is increased to over double their original, if subject does not get enough nutrients, cells will begin to break down rapidly until death[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]If a subject is injured repeatedly within a short span of time, the healing factor will begin to slow and injuries will only half heal or not at all until they get nutrition.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Subjects who reject the serum die from rapid cellular degeneration[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Cannot be used in conjunction with Yuuzhan Vong biots or DNA as subject will expire extremely quickly[/SIZE]

[SIZE=10.5pt]http://starwarsrp.net/topic/70683-lacertilla/[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]As part of a secret project greenlighted by CEO Taeli Raaf, Aurora Industries began work on developing a serum that would allow soldiers to gain enhanced strength and healing capabilities. The idea was that the serum would cut down on friendly casualties while maximizing enemy casualties as the soldiers could deal with most non-lethal injuries and obstacles.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Developed under Project Lacertilla, the serum must be injected into a subject, it cannot be taken in any other way, but that is not the hard part. As part of the experience, the bioengineered genes contained in the serum must bond with a host’s cells for them to take full effect. If a subject’s body does not accept the genes, their bodies will rapidly undergo cellular degeneration resulting in death. Baseline rejection rates suggest about one in seven beings will accept the genes into their bodies. If the genes are accepted, the host will find their strength increased as the muscular power of the host is increased. Testing shows that subjects gain strength to be able to lift an average human with one hand effortlessly and hurl that weight across a room. The subject will also find that many injuries will heal within a matter of seconds, but missing limbs and mortal injuries will not heal.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]However, the process of the bonding results in excruciating pain regardless of acceptance or not. The serum is also not without its downsides if accepted as the subject’s metabolism is sped up to cope with the increased healing, resulting in an increased body temperature and needing to consume twice as much sustenance as they did previously. Sustenance must be had within one hour of a healing and if sustenance is unable to be found, the subject’s cells will begin to consume themselves and the subject will begin aging rapidly until they are dust. The subject can also not have any Yuuzhan Vong biots or DNA, otherwise the serum will chain react and the subject will be reduced to a puddle of organic goo as the cells break down.[/SIZE]
Notable Player-Characters: None currently
Intent: To develop a serum to provide enhanced strength and healing capabilities to those injected with it
