Pod-doc Enhancement

Pod-doc enhancement in the TKG Universe is now intended to change humans into healthy, longer-lasting human beings. True vampires still need to drink blood as their energy source. Although creating these creatures was one of the original goals of TOM's pod-doc, it has worked out that, through the addition of energy from the Etheric, enhanced humans are not vampires. They are enhanced humans. Yes, they have some of the same capabilities - red eyes, fangs, changing forms when fighting (claws, extra strength), but should not be described or named as vampires because they are using a different energy source.

Transformation – 3 steps 1. Nanocytes heal body of any injuries 2. Nanocytes review DNA issues, and correct them 3. Integrate with all core body functionality. No going back. Change into Vamp. Only after all 3 steps completed. If human is given Vamp blood, in smaller quantities, (as in an emergency), only first 2 steps will occur. Will not change human until body fully saturated with vamp blood. (2/4)

Translation chip for canine/human communication. With everyone having the latest updates and upgrades in their implants, they could understand both the parents and the pups easily, plus any other alien languages the Etheric Empire ran into.

Tech used by Pod-Doc on War Ax, right after Bethany Anne left Earth the second time, with Teddy Walton's group, et al. The technician turned back to the computers and watched the data stream as the Pod Doc took a sample, analyzed it, reprogrammed the nanos, issued new instructions, and injected additional nanocytes. The Pod Doc also inserted an communicator chip in this propcess. Took about ten minutes for all. The initial process took a total of thirty seconds. The rest of the time was dedicated to letting the body grow accustomed to the new equipment coursing throughout, subtly changing things, modifying and adding. Will turn vamps into day-walkers, no longer craving fresh blood.

Weakness when touching silver. Stay away from silver. Can kill you. Nanocytes have a weakness for them. Silver cuts through the nanocytes that course through our blood. Hurts like a motherfucker and leaves one hell of a mark.” He pointed to the smooth skin around her neck and on her arms. “You’ll get yours once the nanos are in place. Silver. Avoid that shit at all costs. Anyone carrying a silver weapon? That’s cause for arrest and on-the-spot judgment.” “Why silver?" “Some things just are. We don’t need to know why, just that they are, and then we flex our existence to reality instead of hoping reality changes.”

EA 01/6 TOM and Bethany Anne had discussed limited enhancements. Remember how you had me limit the upgrades some people received? ". We didn’t want to be creating uncontrolled super-people." Well, in Anne’s case I don’t know if I can limit what changes she undergoes and still get her cured. "Understood. She’s a good kid, so please make sure she gets cured. We’ll just have to deal with any extras that happen to her as a result, but she’s not going to need combat upgrades like reinforced bones and stuff."
