Depending on the target – human Daodan genome, Daodan microbiome, both their epigenomes, or even organelle genomes (like mitochondria and plastids have) – a few different “vectors” (e.g. viruses) need to be available to transport the mutation.

However, it's hard to believe that the Daodan would be able to come up with fitting mutations completely by its own. It seems more likely to me that it draws on “genetic building blocks” holding basic information for fast regeneration, resistances, different metabolisms, and so on. Maybe the Daodan can also make use of already existing genetic material of the microbes: after all, a human just has 23,000 genes (500,000 up to 1,000,000 proteins through alternative splicing), while his microbiome has more than [https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/press-releases/human-microbiome-project/ 5 million] genes/proteins.

The microbiome is very different among humans and would surely make the Daodan's mass production no easy task. But after more than 15 years, the Syndicate should have accomplished a way to simplify the process. This second generation would be independent from the host's sex (XX / YX chromosomes) and the microbiome's composition by providing level-zero stem cells. These can target any compatible symbiont cell and then do a “configuration” (whereby they dissolve the unnecessary genetic material) to become ''classic'' daodanized stem cells and microbes.

: So a virus makes the host its ''own body''; but there also exist symbiotic viruses. These have not taken over a host cell, but sorta vice versa: they became fully incorporated into the host's genome. Two examples: First, the [[wp:Polydnavirus|polydnavirus]] inside of ichneumonid (parasitic) wasps is only produced when the wasps lay eggs in a caterpillar. The virus helps the wasp eggs to survive inside the caterpillar by affecting the immune system and changing the metabolism to the advantage of the wasp eggs. The second example concerns us humans (and all animals with a placenta). The retrovirus [[wp:Syncytin-1|ERVWE1]] in our genome merges placenta cells through its produced protein "syncytin" in order to create a protective layer. That way, the embryo stays untouched by the mother's immune system. Otherwise it could be recognized as a foreign body because of the father's genes. The retrovirus gives us an advantage compared to non-placental mammals.

==Biosynthesizer==
Im Rahmen von '''Projekt Arche''' wurde in Green Village auch ein Biosynthesizer konstruiert mit dem ausgestorbene und neuartige Lebensformen hergestellt werden können.
Bei der Digitalisierung ist die DNA der Hologenome (Genome der Primärsymbionten und ihrer jeweiligen Flora) am wichtigsten. Alles andere kann notfalls berechnet werden.
Der epigenetische Code kann mit einem Large Language Model aus der DNA abgeleitet werden. Je mehr Trainingsdaten aus verschiedenen Spezies zur Verfügung stehen, desto umfangreicher können fehlende Daten einer nicht vollständig digitalisierten Art durch Statistik wiederhergestellt werden. Bei mehreren Lösungsmöglichkeiten werden insilico verschiedene Entwicklungspfade getestet. Informationen für eine künstliche Gebärmutter, optimale Umweltbedingungen und Ernährung können ebenso insilico gewonnen werden. GV-Biologen bevorzugen die Sicherstellung von Daten aus natürlichen Quellen, wann immer möglich, da die Berechnung aller fehlenden Daten prinzipiell möglich aber sehr Ressourcen intensiv ist.
Biosynthesizern sollen Auswirkungen '''globaler Filter''' kompensieren sofern überhaupt eine genügend große Menge von Menschen überlebt hat.

Still many PC programs can't draw advantage from multi-cores processors and will not. That is because not every program need multiple cores, like text editors. However the trend is here to stay: more cores. (See Intel's Core X and AMD's Threadripper.) Or more exactly: parallelism. It's the new hype.

* Wenn Supraleitfähigkeit nicht bei Normalbedingungen vorliegen kann, sollte Kühlung statt Druck diese Fähigkeit ermöglichen, weil die Umsetzung technisch leichter ist.
* Toleriert hohe Stromdichten, damit das Material industriell interessant ist.
* Einfach in der Herstellung.
* Biegsamkeit (etwa für Kabel und Spulen)

Die WCG fördert seitdem massiv die Forschung weiterer Supraleitermaterialien, da sie den Energieverbrauch der Menschheit senken helfen. Umweltorganisationen kritisieren, dass hierbei auf die Umweltverträglichkeit (Toxizität und Recyclingfähigkeit) zu wenig Wert gelegt wurde.
'''Prioritätensetzung durch die WCG:'''
 
Da Ultra-Hochtemperatur-Supraleiter den Energieverbrauch der Menschheit massiv senken würden, plant die WCG eine massive Forschungsförderung dieser Materialien, sobald das "lunare R&D Supergrid" fertiggestellt wurde. Umweltorganisationen warnen, Toxizität und Recyclingfähigkeit der Materialien nicht zu unterschlagen, weil der Masseneinsatz sonst zu neuen Umweltproblemen führt.
 
In Wissensgesellschaften sind Skalierung und Effizienzsteigerungen im Bereich Computing und Energiegewinnung, -umwandelung, -speicherung, und -übertragung von besonderer Bedeutung. Nach dem BioCrisis-Desaster beauftragten die technikaffinen WCG-Funktionäre Pensatore mit einer weniger gefährlichen Möglichkeit, gesamtgesellschaftliche Verbesserungen zu finden.<!-- Neben Supraleitern enthielt ihre Liste auch Spintronik, Photonik, Quantum Computing, Hyperentanglement, sowie der Einsatz von höherwertiger Logik.-->
 
Pensatore: "Avatara, wie würdest du Supraleiter herstellen?"
: "Da es keine einheitliche Theorie zur Hervorsage von Supraleitern gibt, wäre es naheliegend, einen Trial-and-Error/Bruteforce-Ansatz mit möglichst vielen automatisierten Experimentallaboren zu verfolgen. Je mehr Labore zur Verfügung stehen, desto mehr Varianten können in einer Zeiteinheit getestet werden. Varianten seien Materialien sowohl unter Normalbedingungen als auch unter [[#Conditional_materials|Nichtnormalebedingungen]]. Letztgenannte wären insbesondere DDMP, die zusätzlich unter unterschiedlichen Bedingungen getestet werden: Temperatur, Druck, Zugkräfte, [https://www.mpg.de/9942583/supraleitung-fulleren-lichtinduziert Licht] und Stromdichte. Das ist quasi das [[wp:de:Infinite-Monkey-Theorem|Infinite-Monkey-Theorem]], das aber mit einem systemischen Testen umgesetzt wird. Materialwissenschaftler könnte weiterhin Materialien und Wertebereiche vorschlagen, also diese Experimente priorisieren, von denen sie glauben, dass sie am ehesten zum Erfolg führen. -- Man könnte auch versuchen, den gewünschten supraleitenden Zustand in bekannten ''Basismaterialien'' zu simulieren und von dort aus immer neue Varianten virtuell und dann real zu testen, die den gewünschten Zielbedingungen am nächsten kommen."

==Phase Cloak==
==Phase Cloak==
Phase cloak devices were jointly developed by Silver Village and Green Village. A highly fluent adhesive with behavior and logic of [[wp:Physarum_polycephalum|Physarum polycephalum]] engulfs its wearer. In its high energy state the device undergoes a phase shift basically becoming a smart meta material complex. The wearer gets invisible to 99 percent. Though being a completely different technology by now, the first batch embarrassingly shipped with the wrong manual describing the principles of the prototype. The mass-produced device dues not damage its wearer's molecular bonding but suffers itself from a burnout effect strongly limiting the usage.

===Van de Graaff (VDG) Pistol===
===Wireless mid-range taser===
The name and technological background should probably be replaced inside the story by [[wp:Electrolaser|electrolaser]] versions. (laser-induced plasma channel)
The WCG weapon manufactures discontinued VDG pistols in favor of compressed graphite powder based tasers. The conducting graphite gets synthesized in the post-firing phase to ready the next round.  


===Electrolaser===
The WCG experimented with [[wp:Electrolaser|electrolasers]] to secure facilities against lightning strikes. A laser-induced plasma channel takes the lightning to the ground at a secure place.


===Plasma weapon===
This technology cannot be used for normal hand-held weapons as both start and end point are at danger and the usage depends on the weather. Also, creating a laser-induced plasma channel require huge amount of energy in the first place.
The most strange thing about Oni's plasma rifle was that the bolt accelerates over distance.


Let's compare this to a full-blown balloon losing air. But here it is graphene-coated bubble that is self propelling due to a plasma jet at a hole, destroyed at contact. The bubble is magnetized causing electrons to be attracted and fueling a contraction mechanism. The positive charged protons are repelled and can escape only through the one opening.
'''Lightning thrower'''


These coated plasma bolts should deal several types of damage: shock, burn, and blast damage.
At GV the rebels created a mech with two LIPC fire modes. In both cases the mech functions as a mobile relay station.
* GV fusion reactor can be used to power the mech's LIPC and the additionally applied current.
* In the second mode, the mech creates two LIPC to first trigger a lightning strike and then reroutes the energy with a second LIPC to enemy forces.


===Plasma weapon===
The accelerating plasma bolt rests in a graphene-coated bubble that is self propelling due to a plasma jet. The bubble is magnetized causing electrons to be attracted and fueling a contraction mechanism. The positive charged protons are repelled and can escape only through one opening. When the bolt collapses on contact it causes shock, burn, and blast damage.
