NEX Enhancers

NEX Enhancers are a modified subspecies of human that have the ability to produce and control NEX from their own bodies. Originally created to pilot the first BOTs during the Porygon War, current NEX Enhancers are the descendants of these super soldiers, and their massive numbers and power make them a liability for various governments.

## Biology

The biology of NEX Enhancers is mostly the same as the biology of any other human, with the exception of the Amplifier organ, a special organ located between the shoulders that allows NEX Enhancers to produce NEX and release it from their bodies. Their nervous systems have different pathways to allow NEX to be released, often with the use of a Harness device. However, because of the dependency on the nervous system to use NEX, the nervous system can be attacked directly to disrupt the flow of NEX.

With NEX Enhancers constantly using their Amplifiers, they can suffer from strains and damage to the organ.

By being able to produce their own NEX, NEX Enhancers act as a secondary CORE for a BOT, able to directly use their NEX to form movements, or to entirely power their BOT, if the main CORE is damaged. With more advanced control over their Amplifiers, NEX Enhancers can also use NEX as supernatural techniques, able to manipulate space.

The circulation of NEX within the nervous system also allows NEX Enhancers to have virtually assured immunity against psychic abilities, though this will also impede the psychic abilities of any NEX Enhancer who wishes to use them.

## View by Society

For the most part, NEX Enhancers are seen as two things - dangerous living weapons that cannot be controlled, or the next glorious step in the evolution of mankind.

In the Pasa sector, most view NEX Enhancers with a sense of suspicion - mostly treating them as normal people, but constantly on edge of the danger they represented. Reminded of this threat constantly by their glowing NEX eyes, all NEX Enhancers are required to activate their Harness in public. Anti-NEX Enhancer weapons are readily available as well, in order to keep NEX Enhancers in line.

## Variants

Due to mutations, and further human interference, there are multiple kinds of NEX Enhancers, who produce different forms of NEX and have slightly different biologies.

* **Alphars** - The most common type of NEX Enhancers. Alphars descend from the Legionaries, after multiple generations separated from the Alpha Legion. Alphars can manipulate standard NEX. Their NEX Eye glows blue.
* **Legionaries** - Considered the "true" NEX Enhancers. Legionaries are the original variant of NEX Enhancers created by the United Empires. Are practically identical to Alphars, though Legionaries have much stronger physical abilities, and can actively form different kinds of NEX properties in their Amplifiers. Their NEX eye glows blue.
* **Gammars** - An uncommon mutation from Alphars. Gammars can manipulate Nullifier, a disintegrative form of NEX. They are immune to the effects of their own Nullifier and have increased resistance to Nullifer in general. Their NEX eye glows a noticeable dark blue.
* **Omegali** - An artificial type of NEX Enhancers created by Pasa. Omegali can manipulate Omegali NEX, which can affect the flow of time. To become an Omegali, one must have an Omegali Amplifier
