Biopunk station 13
Created by: Guestaccess
I'd like to suggest we biopunk the fuck out of spessmen. maybe this is a bit complex for BYOND, and maybe this is a bit 'byond' what can be done with code (ack ack!)
but... what if xeno organs could be grafted with strange effects, (maybe even a way to mutate specific organs to do specific things like genetics does to DNA?) everything from plasma generation, breathing other atmospheres, enhanced regeneration, increased darkvision, organs that create/release specific chemical cocktails for various purposes, spitting acid, creating a ling-like armblade, hell even organs that allow people to fire taser-like shots or lightning bolts if they can get certain chemicals/grafts to merge into bigger and better stuff!
What if also, we took a botany-like approach to all the various creatures either scattered about the station or living in the void? Take a chicken breed it and play with its offspring via bluespace/mutagen/the-tears-of-the-clown to lay explosive eggs, or maybe turn it into the raptor we all know lurks in the creatures bones? Stat all (non-sentient) creatures, maybe add the ability to hybridize a bunch of freakish creatures and add the above mentioned "organs on steroids" to form a whole bunch of possibilities
Then add the clowns brain and cry as your creation does nothing more than tell fart jokes.
This would give a reason for Xenobio/Xenobotany to be a (separate) thing from normal botany/bio-research instead of whats currently spess slime farmer 2250 and his trusty NOT!botanist.
