One thing to come out of the quantum revolution is the advent of NanoMods (Nano Robots) that repair and alter the human body. First introduced for organ repair and accelerated healing from physical trauma. Later they were adapted to change and strengthen the body, by attaching themselves to nerves, muscles or neurons. Now NanoMods are part of every medical procedure, and can make even the messiest of operations safe from infection.

The more conventional person likes to show off their body upgrades, and wants a little more, CyberWare offers this choice. The more fashion conscious pay more for branded CyberWare, which is seen by many Socialites and Gothik’s as the latest in chic.
     The main reason CyberWare has been so popular is the adaptation capabilities of multifunction enchantments. NanoMods can only go so far if you want more power and more speed you have to go for CyberWare. Combined this with NanoMods, and it has the capacity for self repair.

OrgWare is the latest thing, unlike NanoMods and CyberWare it’s completely organic. OrgWare has the capacity to recode the users DNA to accept vat grown limbs or change the body’s capabilities. Because of the nature of OrgWare a fine balance needs to be maintained within the bodies immune system or the changes will be rejected resulting in the agonising death of the user. OrgWare has one major flaw… unlike all other forms of body modification you cannot be removed.
     Despite its use, there is still the moral and ethical debate. OrgWare’s future development will lead to human cloning. Another issue with clones is that the Genetic Encryption of their will be identical to that of their DNA host, meaning nothing will be truly secure any more. No matter what happens to OrgWare, policing its use in cloning is going to get increasingly difficult in the future.

Because of the nature of all body augmentation it has to link with the implant to monitor connections and the body’s state. This brings up the debate of control, they say the Hyper Corporations cannot directly control us because of Genetic Encryption, but if cloning is not stopped that encryption becomes useless. Like them or hate them, augmentations are to useful.
