This biomorph idea is based heavily off of the Variant 13 genetically modified humans in Richard K Morgan's novel [i]Thirteen[/i]. In a nutshell, 13s are physically enhanced super soldiers, but their neurology (most notably their limbic systems) is based off of early hunter/gather humans. Their brain structure pre-agricultural and pre-societal. Not only are all 13s male, they are all hyper Alpha-males. While they are excellent combatants and warriors, their anti-social (technically, 'pre-social') personalities and behavior patterns makes 13s terrible soldiers. I'm cribbing the name 'Conan' for this biomorph because I read a large collection of Robert E. Howard short stories before reading [i]Thirteen[/i] and, well, a barbarian is a barbarian. I'm adapting the Variant 13 concept to the EP 'verse by assuming that Conans were the predecessors of the Furies. In fact, Conans are the reason why Furies are all female and sequenced with extra pack mentality genes. Conans were originally bred by various Earth nations around BF 40 to act as special forces and shock troopers in the constant conflicts around the globe and solar system. Initially, the Conans perform beyond expectation, proving cunning and tenacious in combat, but eventually start exhibiting anti-authority attitudes and disregarding orders as they gain more real-world experience. Mutiny and desertion is not uncommon. Those renegade Conans that are not captured and executed are either forcibly relocated to reservations on Mars or escape and infiltrate into the outer system. There was never a second generation of Conans produced, but much of the pioneering genetic research developed in their creation was used in the later Olympian and Fury biomorphs. Post Fall there are few original Conans left and most governments have outlawed the production of Conan biomorphs. Their genetically inherent antisocial and violent tendencies make them simply too undesirable for any community. Paramilitary hypercorps such as Direct Action refuse employment to anyone using a Conan biomorph. Of course, that is not say that there is not some small demand for Conan morphs. They do tend to be popular with mercenaries, bounty hunters, survivalists, and even overly ambitious hypercorp junior executives looking for an edge. Ok, so I have a pretty good handle on the fluffy background bits of the Conans. It's the crunchy bits of the Conans...representing them with stats and game rules...that I need help with. I have that problem with whatever system I happen to be using at the time. I'm utilizer, not an innovator. Physical stat wise I envision Conans to be some where inbetween an Olympian and a Fury (erring closer to a combat specialized Olympian). Mentally and behaviorally, I need help representing Alpha male oriented aggression and paranoia within the rules. Any help is appreciated. If I can get the biomorph hashed out, I'd also like to work on a 'Conan' Background for the original Conans still bumping around the solar system.
