SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Highly infectious: Glinstering oil is the building block of a veritable variation of nightmarish deviations to any standard genetic code, but where viruses and diseases generally tend to break down genetic code to suit their own needs. The Glinstering oil, when it comes into contact with any sentient being, attempts to improve the dna, causing rapid mutations and changes in the genetic make up of the afflicted. Most do not survive this process and end up as nothing but wriggling, drooling heaps of useless, overmutated flesh...but some...some reach the utter perfection, a 'perfaect' biological machine, connected through the instrument that is the glinstering oil to the Origin: Hraelga.
  • Liquid solid: Glinstering oil is in a state between solid and liquid, constantly shifting between both due to its high viscosity which makes it akin to molasses, being sticky, hard to remove and clean and strangely strong and resistant to kinetic damage.
  • It is blood: The glistening oil, despite its visual cues and color, is in fact the lifeblood of its victims, replacing any and all blood they possess and becoming their new equivalent of blood, making each and every 'Perfaected' being a carrier that could easily infect thousands more simply by spilling blood.
STRENGTHS
  • Highly Adaptive: Glinstering oil is in a sense very adaptive to its environments, resistent to most common types of damage such as kinetic, thermal or electric energy, it can survive for long periods of time on any sort of planet, slowly seeping into the planet's ground, infecting pools of water, fauna and flora, slowly but surely reshaping everything into IT'S desired shape of Perfaection.
  • Not a virus or disease: The glinstering oil does not operate by the logic of viruses and diseases and is in fact much closer to nanotechnology in a sense, following an imprinted pattern of improvement and evolution until either death or Perfaection is reached.
WEAKNESSES
  • Highly succeptive to radiation: As a strange mixture between organic and cybernetic on a molecular level, Glinstering Oil has some fundamental biological weaknesses, one of which is radiation. While most small scale radiation may force the glinstering oil to become inert and inactive, high doses of lethal radiation or sustained may actually destroy the glinstering oil on a microscopic/cellular level, removing the danger it poses as it becomes nothing more than black-colored goop.
  • Force Dead: Those who are force dead are in a sense not of any interest to Glinstering oil, for they lack one key component for the glinstering oil to operate: Midichloreans.
  • Practically harmless without entry point: The Glinstering oil needs an entry point. The likes of plants and trees easily absorb the oil through their roots, animals will ingest the oil either through the contaminated plants and water which can hold trace amounts. However, to have full exposure such as any bodily orifice or wound is necessary for the Glinstering Oil to actually be able to mutate a person...though it isn't advised to bathe into a pool of it.
  • Amount of oil: Small, trace amounts of the oil are harmless and could in a sense even be beneficial, large amounts would be irreversable though, especially through ingestion.
  • Mutation: While it CAN go rapidly, the mutation may depend on each individual, species and even gender, with males apparently have a much lower resistance against the mutagenic properties of the oil. This also means that should one have come in contact with the oil, if quick enough, isolation and removal are still possible, though like a poison: once it can reach the bloodstream...other meassures are needed.
DESCRIPTION
Hraelga had been captured after her self imposed exile years prior to the second great hyperspace war, her captors had utilized her lack of food, shelter and thus strength to capture her and when they finally had a former high ranking, pure Draelvasier in their hands, they couldn't resist tinkering with their new subject, as all scientists at first driven to figure out how a thing works, before attempting to improve upon it or deconstruct it. Hraelga sadly had to go through both, endlessly being pricked and prodded, being dismanteled and kept alive artificially, but through the pain and torture she endured, the hundreds of strange compounds injected into her, she changed, her innate healing and evolving nature rapidly mutating her, incorporating the strange compounds, the drugs and serums injected into her system and slowly losing her Draelvasier self and becoming something more.

One of the resulting creations of this combination of rampant evolution, mutation, and strange chemical compounds was the Glinstering oil, Hraelga's very blood carrying her madness, her forced desire to evolve, to overcome, to adapt and eventually...become Perfaect. Though the Glinstering oil for now is contained outside of this galaxy, Hraelga already has a steady supply of the material by herself.

Though it is to be considered Unique at this point in time, it CAN get out of control and spread rapidly if left unchecked...

Interesting and cool. However, I have some questions and concerns. Mass-production means that you can supply the whole galaxy with it (i.e. there are millions/billions of pieces/items), how is this possible in this case? Based on the description it sounds more like a Semi-unique thing, especially since you can't really defend against it and based on the description you die or change. Can you only defend against it with radiation, or how can a PC evade its effects if they don't want to be affected by it and yet it doesn't seem like godmodding either?
 
Added more weaknesses and though you are correct to state it should be a lower production number now... the point is that it wouldn't stay as just Hraelga alone for long. SO I would lower it to unique, but that would also mean I can't have anything beyond unique made through or with it, which would be contrary to its purpose.

Ok, now, I understand better what do you want, but that is not a Factory sub, it is more of species or a Virus (actually virus or rather retrovirus,). I know what you wrote here, but this is exactly behaving like a virus and nothing technology in it. I would like to ask you to post this in the Codex. The character's body creates in her own body, this is biological function not a technological. Because of this, I have to deny this sub in the factory.

Denied.
