For the final version of the Daodan, it would make sense to not generate any glow since that is a waste of energy. | For the final version of the Daodan, it would make sense to not generate any glow since that is a waste of energy. | ||
: On the other hand, [http://phys.org/news/2016-08-dna-naturally-fluoresces.html DNA has been found to possess natural occurring fluorescence.] So even if the markers of the prototypes are removed you can make a Daodan make glow. This would be interesting as a method for non-verbal communication or - more mundane - providing a light source for long trips in dark environments. -- Let's be honest: Daodan without Daodan aura is less cool and less anime-ish. | |||
Anyway, radiation and hyposprays can theoretically be abused to drive the Daodan's metabolism so high that it releases all its energy resources in a short time and dies of starvation (if it doesn't go into a hibernation mode). (ref. Oni3: Konoko awakens from her [[Oni2:Storyline#Mai|coma]]. Maybe she had to fight a long time in overpower mode or suffered an emotionally-triggered ATP release...) | |||
While the '''Daodan aura''' (a.k.a. chenille) simply indicates a very active metabolism, '''[[Daodan#Daodan_spike|Daodan spikes]]''' might come from the sudden ''implementation'' of a new adaptation within the whole Daodan biomass. | While the '''Daodan aura''' (a.k.a. chenille) simply indicates a very active metabolism, '''[[Daodan#Daodan_spike|Daodan spikes]]''' might come from the sudden ''implementation'' of a new adaptation within the whole Daodan biomass. | ||
