Organic

Organics are individuals with minimal assimilated parts, choosing to install only those necessary for survival in Thaeta’s natural environment. While some organics remain so for lack of funds or ability to assimilate, the majority of modern organics have deliberately forsaken the aid of synthetic parts for spiritual, moral, or even political reasons.

Though they prefer to call themselves humans, they have been termed organics by the Nexus, considered in most government-sponsored cities to be inferior or even backwards. (It should be noted that children under the age of 12 do not usually suffer the same scrutiny, though it is possible for them to assimilate using modified and anually replaced parts.) This has caused significant pressure on most citizens to integrate synthetic parts at least to the Bionic classification, or to gravitate toward so-called rebel cities, where their existence is celebrated. Though purity is not usually a major motivation for most organics who remain organics, it has become more important in recent years in response to alienation.

Due to these cultural prejudices, organic populations can range anywhere between 0% and 90% in different city censuses. In Thaeta as a whole, they make up 21.2% of the population.

Behind their reputation as the world’s delinquents, organics are known best for their recent discovery and use of magic. All known magics are most powerful and efficient when performed by the least assimilated, or more “organic” individuals.

In addition to magical prowess, organics usually excel in Instict-based skills and the arts. While they lack the emotional and academic stability of more assimilated people, they tend to be more creative, intuitive, and individualistic.
