Augments were engineered with the intention of surpassing humans in all aspects. Within the clandestine corridors of scientific ambition, a team of researchers embarked on the audacious initiative dubbed "Project Khan." At the helm of this ambitious endeavor stood Adam Soong, a visionary scientist with a penchant for pushing the boundaries of genetic engineering. Tasked with redefining human potential, the team delved deep into the realms of molecular manipulation. Through painstaking experimentation and revolutionary techniques, the Augments were born. These marvels of genetic engineering were the culmination of years of tireless effort and unyielding determination. Each Augment bore the imprint of their creators' ingenuity, infused with enhancements that transcended the limitations of conventional humanity.
Biology[]
Augments possess strength, speed, and durability significantly greater than any human. What's even more remarkable is their mind, capable of surpassing any other intellect and comprehending an entire century's worth of information in just a few minutes. They also possess a unique healing factor and pain suppression ability due to their blood, which can rapidly heal other humanoid life forms.
