Vylmira's Wrath
- Intent: To modify the Nephilim Program to enhance a different species...
- Image Source: X
- Canon Link: N/A
- Primary Source: Nephilim Program
- Manufacturer: Vylmira Technological Industries
- Affiliation: Voph
- Model: Nephilim Serum: Maker Strain
- Modularity: No, this strain has been specifically designed to suit a single individual.
Production: Unique
- Material: Cybernetics, Various Biological Components, Durasteel Bone Coating
- Cybernetic Enhancements
Increased Focus
Cybernetic modules release chemicals into the brain to aid the recipient's focus in stressful situations.
[*]Increased Hand-Eye-coordination
- Cybernetic Modules assist in Hand-eye-coordination to increase accuracy and precision
[*]Visual Receptors
- Cybernetic Implants behind the eye sockets are capable of creating three-dimensional readouts of the surrounding area by sending a signal that bounces off solid objects and returns to the implant, creating an echolocation style image. Then, by relaying this information to the brain, the implant is able to simulate a Miraluka's natural Force Sight.
[*]Various Biological Enhancements
- Increased Strength
The Biological Enhancements increase the strength of the recipient, multiplying by approximately x4 the user's natural strength.
[*]Bone Integrity Increase
- The recipient's skeleton is coated in a specialized Durasteel coat to reinforce the bones and prevent breaks
[*]Increased Size
- The Nephilim Serum will increase the size of the recipient to 2.2 meters
[*]Increased Reaction Times
- Various chemical agents have been employed to increase reaction times in recipients.
[*]Increased Speed
- Additional chemical agents have been employed to increase speed beyond what the muscular enhancements offer.
[*]Increased Stamina
- Additional Chemical agents have been employed to increase recipient's Stamina and Recovery times.
[*]Increased Lung Capacity
- Additional Chemical agents have been employed to increase lung capacity.
[*]Revitalization
- Additional Chemical agents have been employed to revitalize existing cells, and repair genetic and cellular damage resulting from flawed cloning technology.
- Increased Physicality: The Program, as detailed above, increases the recipient's physical ability across a number of factors, including Strength, Durability, Stamina, Reaction Times, Focus, Coordination, and Lung Capacity.
- Increased Size: The average Program recipient's height is increased to 2.2 meters.
- Sight Implants: The implants behind the eye sockets allow the recipient Miraluka to see in a crude rendition of their normal sight methods, even when blocked from naturally utilizing Force Sight
- Revitalization: Certain minor alterations have revitalized the cells within the host body, fixing previously undiscovered genetic damage and other abnormalities.
- EMP Prone: EMP can disable the cybernetics.
- Increased Calorie needs: Recipients must eat a lot more to maintain dietary needs
- Cybernetics: Should an EMP/Ion attack succeed in eliminating the Cybernetic suite, all related functions will cease.
- Medical Mishaps: The toughening of bones, skin, etc, makes healing a process. Any injuries sustained can take anywhere from twice as long to four times as long to heal by normal means, and may require additional medical procedures for otherwise natural bodily healing.
- Bacta Reduction: Due to an incurable genetic splice behavior, Bacta works at roughly one-fourth effectiveness on the recipient.
- One Man Only: The Maker Strain is designed to work with Miralukan biology, but only a single strain was ever developed.
- Rend Flesh: Soldiers are still susceptible to puncture based wounds, such as ballistics and knives.
- Sight Lines: The Visual Implants do not allow the user to see through walls, as the signal will bounce upon contact with a solid object.
- Headaches: The signals from the Visual Implant, when active, are migraine inducing.
After the success of the first Nephilim Serum, Voph commissioned a second serum designed for his personal use, seeking to both bolster his own physicality, and to correct some genetic abnormalities that had begun to occur within him. This, of course, did not correct ALL the peculiarities, instead causing even more beyond the original scope. But, Voph's health was stabilized, and his appearance fell more consistently in line with how an individual of his physical age ought to appear.
The anomalies were discovered during a medical exam conducted in the early stages of the strain's development with the intent of assessing Voph's viability to receive treatment, and further study identified improper cloning techniques as the cause. While not immediately problematic, the defects could have proven lethal if allowed to persist. The Serum was altered to target these defects, which in turn boosted the recipient into a much healthier state.
Alongside the other problems that such a program had created in the Nephilim Soldiers, Voph discovered that the visual implant (which proved to be a godsend in certain scenarios) caused migraines and other intensely unpleasant sensations when used for a long period of time. While this might have been remedied at some point, Voph elected to implement the current working version, as he found himself able to stomach the few moments of illness in favor of being able to see.
