A Biomechanoid is a living machine created through genetic modification, manipulation and hardware augmentation. They are a blend of the mechanical and the biological and tend to possess above average to superior intellect and intelligence above and beyond those of their natural brethren or other similar creatures. Examples of Biomechanoids on the planet of Offworld include Yurg the tiger, The Dragons of Offworld, The Wolves of Ratinar, Captain Ebenezer and several others.

General Info

  • Biomechanoids are NOT cyborgs. They are genetically modified hybrid organisms that seamlessly blend both the mechanical and biological into a single, greatly enhanced lifeform that is fully capable of reproducing just like any other biological life form, yet enjoys the benefits of the many different cybernetic implants installed within their bodies.
  • Biomechanoids have (in comparison to humans) average, above average or genius level intelligence, depending on the particular unit, and model, and are fully capable of speech and reasoning on their own.
  • The degree of augmentation a biomechanoid enjoys depends upon 1) the original mission they were created to perform, and 2) their size, age and/or species. For example, the Dragons of Offworld enjoy access to a whole shopping list of upgrades and enhancements that others, such as Ebenezer and Yurg, do not possess, as their intended purpose and mission do not require them, or their bodies simply aren't big enough to house the additional technologies required to possess or use these technologies.
  • Some biomechanoids are created from a single species, and designed to do a specific job as required by the controllers, such as Yurg and the Wolves of Ratinar. Others, such as the Dragons, are a composite blending together of several species into a single and distinct new creation.
  • Some biomechanoids have implanted technology that allows them to live without consuming food or water, while others are required to eat, like any other creature, in order to sustain themselves and survive. Again, this falls under the same reasons that not every biomechanoid is outfitted with the same technology.
