The Fae

== The Fae-Touched ==
Pristine, empowered, and harbingers of the greatest feats in genetic-alteration. When witnessed utilizing their power, many would see them as shamans or those with mystical powers when in reality it's all genetic technology. They can be identified by the glowing tattoos found all along their body from head to toe. Their projected abilities always match the color of these tattoos. Many say the marks along their bodies could be considered their soul trying to break free from its mortal shackle. Of course that's from the speculation of a mad man.
They originate from an old program called Project Fae, founded within the last few years before the collapse of modern society, a secret experiment to raise several super-humans with the ability to compute forms of matter, fend off hunger, and garner resistances to volatile temperatures. Though the major drawbacks being raised as a Fae is the lack of physical strength which they use their minds to make up for.
There are many forms of energy manipulation certain Fae can use, depending on the bunker-sector they come from. And they are capable of genetically passing on their special traits to children as well. Many are trained from birth, raised in bunkers to learn all appropriate subjects to increase their relative intelligence while also practicing the use of their abilities under the tutelage of their designated caretaker AI. All the original fae have been purposely born to be female for the guaranteed potential of breeding more fae with the intent of eventually releasing them to the public before the collapse. However this project was scrapped and discontinued before picking up steam again when the bunker AIs were activated, causing fae children to be born in their designated bunkers around 2130-2150.
Being an altered off-branch of humanity, one could compare fae similarly to mutants for their biological relation to humanity. Though mutants originated during the early years after the collapse, fae in technicality were also only born after the collapse with the rare exception of the first experiments when the project was still ongoing. As their brains have the capacity to run biological programs through what is called: Fae Casting, where many fluid abilities can occur. This main feature faes have is also tailored through bio-chips to grant non-fae minor access to the casting of any certain program, turning them into a partial-fae.
A significant fae known to many is the Hard-Light user, Anastasia Clover, for her solid light abilities. Like her, there might be other fae locked in related bunkers... ready to be freed. Many of the designed programs faes utilize have certain specialties that were built with the intention of operating certain fields within society. They have also purposely specified details of fae appearance to identify the type of program they are best suitable to run. Examples of certain programs and what they were made for is below: 
SPM, the program based on hard-light was created with the intention of faes mapping architecture, stabilizing structures, and construction. 
THE, the program focusing on sound and temperature control was made with the intention of assisting green houses, temperature-sensitive needs, and many different laboratories. 
NBB is a program made with the intention of espionage and secret services, infiltrating technology, satellites, and sharing skills amongst each other for peak guaranteed group performance. 
Due to the project being discontinued, there are many untested flaws with the programs and fae which garner somewhat diverse weaknesses amongst them. Some of which weren't known in the program.
